Buddy runs his own trolley. Most of it seems to be a musical number. However, there is a criminal living in the ditches as he breaks loose and hijacks Buddy's trolley.

While having lunch at the garage, Cookie is kidnapped by a man and Buddy gets in a car chase to rescue her.

Buddy's boat floats merrily down the river as there are various musical and dance shows performed.

On a winter night, Buddy charges Towser with the task of guarding his prize chickens, and then goes to bed. A fox enters the henhouse and is driven out by the hens and some ducks by having eggs thrown at him.

Buddy's musical antics as a waiter at a German beer garden are truly delightful! Cookie appears as a cigarette girl and scarf-dancer, and a drag-decked lounge-singing Buddy brings down the house.

Buddy is a US sailor on shore leave in China, where he rescues a girl who is about to be sacrificed to a dragon.

Buddy encounters black cannibals. He and his animal friends beat up near-naked natives (with rings in their noses)..

Male cats fight each other over a female cat around the backyard fence.

This cartoon has some amusing sight gags like a car going back through a fence and crashing into various animals before landing in Cookie's yard or a train that seems on its way into crashing into a car with Elmer and Happy inside when Buddy and Cookie use a ladder to derail the locomotive in another direction.
