Popeye, Olive and Swee'Pea are sightseeing in New York City. Olive visits a department store to try on some dresses, leaving Popeye to watch Swee'Pea. However, Swee'Pea decides to do some sightseeing of his own, and when Popeye's back is turned, he wanders off. Popeye realizes that Swee'Pea is gone and decides to go get him before Olive learns that he is missing. Swee'Pea leads Popeye on a merry chase through New York, including the subway and the World Trade Center, ending up on the Statue of Liberty, where Popeye has to eat some spinach to save him when he falls off. Popeye returns with Swee'Pea in the nick of time before Olive realizes that they are gone. When he finally catches Swee'Pea, Popeye is so exhausted that he wants to take a nap, but then Olive wants to go sightseeing, and she can't understand why Popeye's so tired.
