This is a "fish tale," not a romance story involving Olive's fickleness to Popeye. "Fickle," in this case, must mean just changing her mind as does with a little goldfish in this entertaining cartoon.
The is a short (five minutes) but very wild ride as Olive's new pet goldfish "Gertrude" jumps overboard, and Popeye has to rescue her (after Olive calls him a coward for not wanting to do it. You could blame him; the goldfish spat in Popeye's eye. He's a wise little sucker.) The bulk of the cartoon, then, is Popeye's chase in the ocean after this little fish. He meets all kinds of creatures, including a giant jellyfish, which swallows our Sailor Man.
I won't say everything that is in here. Suffice to say it's very fast-moving and the artwork is good, too. Sight gags are numerous, both above and below water, and most of them are pretty clever. If you're a Popeye fan, you'll enjoy this.....particularly the ending!
