The story opens with Sylvester rummaging through trash cans for food. When he does not find anything worth satisfying, he is very sad and goes to the dock. As he is sitting there, he is by a cruise ship and Tweety is swinging in his cage. When Sylvester sees Tweety, he calls Tweety his breakfast and Tweety slams the port door on Sylvester dropping him in the water. The cruise ship sails off with Granny and Tweety saying "Goodbye" to everyone and Sylvester as a stowaway on a little boat with the number 13 on it.
