Synopsis by Hal Erickson

The scene is an apartment courtyard, where all the residents are grooving on the music provided by organ-grinder Wimpy, and are enjoying the antics of Wimpy's cute little pet monkey. The only killjoy in the bunch is Bluto, who hates both music and monkeys and does everything he can to destroy both. Fortunately, Popeye comes to the rescue in splendid fashion--with a little help from the monkey, who has apparently seen enough cartoons to know that the one-eyed sailor derives his strength from spinach. Heard throughout this sprightly cartoon is the title song, written by Will Hudson and Irving Mills.
