An old-time Mississippi paddle-wheel showboat docks, and Krazy tries to serenade the girl that's the star attraction, but he has a hippo-faced rival. When the programme commences, She sings a long song with many gestures, though the song is a lot of holding long notes. Krazy and his rival are in balconies on either side of the stage. When her performance stops, Hippo guy does a dance, but Krazy sees to it he loses his trousers. Krazy then puts on a dance of his own, but slips up on banana skins. The audience pelts him with vegetables, shoes and irons.
