A large shipment of cheese is lowered on the deck of cargo ship, and able-bodied seamouse Jerry is entranced by the aroma. He's now determined to get that cheese if it kills him--and it probably will, if Lieutenant (j.g.) Tom has anything to say about it. Fortunately for Jerry, Tom is preoccupied with staying on the good side of the ship's aptain--and avoiding being devoured devoured by a nasty-looking shark. The battle of wits and wills between Tom and Jerry continues throughout the cartoon, highlighted by a hose-propelled trip through outer space and a heated encounter with the ship's boiler room.
