While travelling by boat, two suspicious fellows sneak up behind Red and Curley and push them overboard into the sea. Luckily, another ship happens by them and fishes them out of the water. The captain gives the dry sailor clothes to wear. Of coutse, Red and Curley's streak of bad luck follows them even here, as down below deck in the crew's quarters, the crew suspect their captain of hoarding thousands of dollars in pearls. A mutiny springs forth, and Red and Curley are caught in the middle!

Inside the building, they find the body of an importer, along with a note telling police to stay out of it. The body is still warm, so whoever killed him may still be there. Using his hat as bait, Carey manages to coax out the killer and subdue him with a well placed punch. But as he bends down to search the man for any I.D., Sleepy spots another coming up behind him with a knife! Will Carey respond to Sleepy's shout in time?
