The cop Pongo stopped him and investigated the box. Clem told that it had a cat. The cop insisted on opening it.<\/p>\n

When Clem did so, a ship\u2019s cat jumped off and escaped into the docks. When Clem Jones returned with the box of cheese, he looked angrily at the policeman Pongo to make the policeman feel guilty of his previous act of opening the box, in which the cat was kept inside. By making Pongo feel guilty, Clem was able to avoid any more security checks and thus was able to steal a large Dutch Cheese.<\/p>\n
