A battleship crewed largely by dogs, led by a captain who sounds like Yosemite Sam, sets sail. When the crew rushes to the mess hall ahead of him, he orders them to stop—some freeze mid‑air. A radio announces a reward for capturing a pirate submarine, so the dogs launch planes, leaving Porky behind. The submarine attacks, and Porky alone defends the ship, repelling the boarding party and hauling the sub aboard with a plunger.
