The cartoon commences with an establishing shot of an impressive gold-colored automobile pulling into Olive Oyl's Service Station. A distinguished-looking Admiral in a white dress uniform and white handlebar moustache (whom Olive mistakes for a doorman) emerges and instructs Ms. Oyl to "just put a little air in this tire" while he steps out to the adjoining cigar store. Meanwhile, Popeye and Bluto happen by on shore leave (amicable Navy buddies at this point who walk together arm-in-arm) and offer to jointly take her rowing. Olive is amenable, following completion of the seemingly simple task at hand.
