Well, this cartoon answered one question I always had: what was the story with Swee' Pea. It turns out he was an orphan. How he got the little kid, I still don't know because it's not part of this story. It just leads into it, where Popeye explains to Olive Oyl why he is on this current sailing trip to find his "pappy."
"For a long time, I always though I was an orphink just like 'Swee Pea," he says, "but one day I runs into a sailor what told me he saw a swab that looks like me, but in an old-ish way, on the island of Goona, and that's where we're sailin' for now."
It finds up a pretty entertaining cartoon as "Poopeye Pappy" tries to keep strangers off his island with various methods, such a huge gorilla and a giant octopus.
This wasn't really a funny episode but it was a "cute" one with a heartwarming ending. It's tough to make much of a story when you trim these animated Popeye short features down to a measly five minutes.
