- Singer Olive Oyl needs an accompanist, and both Popeye and Bluto apply for the job.
- Popeye's nephews would rather have hamburgers than spinach, so Popeye recounts some of his past exploits where spinach saved the day.
- After recalling several "spinach moments", Bluto realizes that if there's no spinach, Popeye won't be able to beat him, so he creates a potion to eradicate spinach and sprays all the fields. Out of desperation, Popeye tries several other vegetables, to no avail.
