Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs

Scene opens with a red tinted silhouette of a large woman and a small child by a fireplace as Mammy invites So White to hear the story of So White and the Sebben Dwarfs. She begins recounting the fairy tale and sets a playful, musical tone for the tale. This frame guides the audience into a motherly storytelling moment.

The Wicked Queen is shown as a food hoarder with a cache of wartime ration items. She stuffs her face with candies and consults a magic mirror to summon a prince. She immediately starts plotting against So White to maintain her control.

Prince Chawmin' arrives in a flashy car and proclaims So White is dyn-a-mite while mocking the queen. He sweeps So White into a lively jitterbug, drawing the queen's ire. The scene marks the start of the queen's vendetta against So White.

The queen, furious at the pair, hires an assassination crew to remove So White. The panel truck and its cheeky slogan introduce the mercenary threat. So White becomes the target of the queen's scheme.

The assassins kidnap So White, but after several favors that please them, they release her unharmed into the woods. She wanders the forest, unaware of the deeper danger behind the queen’s plot. The episode marks a turning point that leads her toward the Sebben Dwarfs.

In the woods, So White meets a dwarf who hoots like an owl and is drawn to the Sebben Dwarfs. They recruit her as their squad cook, and she spends her days frying eggs for the soldiers. A stove sign proclaims Keep Em Frying as a playful wartime joke.

Learning that So White is alive, the queen poisons an apple by transforming a red fruit into green and releasing four worms as comic menace. She disguises herself as an old peddler and delivers the poisoned fruit to the Sebben Dwarfs' camp. The trap is set to eliminate So White.

So White accepts the apple and collapses, seemingly dead. One dwarf witnesses the moment and calls the others to action, triggering a rapid response with the dwarfs leaping into vehicles to confront the danger. The queen makes her escape as the dwarfs rush to defend So White.

The dwarfs load a cannon with a war shell and Dopey appears to deliver the final blow. The shell carries Dopey toward the queen, who is knocked out with a mallet, ending the queen's threat for now. So White remains unconscious for the moment.

A spotlight returns with Prince Chawmin' attempting a passionate kiss to revive So White. His effort is comic but fatal, as he turns blue and dies in front of the startled dwarfs. The revival scene now seems unlikely without intervention.

Dopey steps in and gives So White a powerful kiss that jolts her awake. Her eyes bulge with awakening, her pigtails shoot upward, and the dwarfs cheer as she returns to life. The moment reasserts the battle between good and evil with a magical spark.

The tale closes with So White alive and the story returning to its framing shot. The screen fades to the standard Merrie Melodies ending, overlaying on the opening scene of the girl and Mammy. The film ends with a quiet callback to its storyteller frame.
