Episodes
Vacation with Play
Popeye and Olive are on vacation at Lake Narrowhead. Olive wants to take part in athletic activities, while Popeye just wants to rest (particularly since he had to substitute for one wheel of their sad excuse of a car). Olive goes off for athletic instruction while Popeye sleeps until he sees that the instructor is Bluto, and he's taking a personal interest in Olive.
Thrill of Fair
Popeye, Olive, and Swee'pea take their pig, Smedley, to the fair to enter it in the livestock show. While Popeye is distracted, Swee'pea crawls off following his balloon and narrowly avoids all sorts of peril.
Alpine for You
Popeye is climbing the Alps, and Olive is being hauled up behind him on a rope, taking pictures. Mountain guide Bluto spots them through binoculars, and goes crazy over Olive. He immediately intercepts them and tries to convince them they need a professional guide. Popeye resists, so Bluto uses a number of tricks: cutting the rope, burning a bridge they are crossing, using a magnet to break Popeye's climbing pick.
Double-Cross-Country Race
Popeye is driving across country against Count Noah Count. He's hopelessly outmatched; the Count has a very powerful car, and Popeye's is barely running. And to top it off, the Count doesn't play fair.
Pilgrim Popeye
Popeye's been feeding a turkey in his backyard; it's Thanksgiving day, and his (3) nephews are all set to turn the turkey into the main course. But Popeye can't bring himself to do the deed, so he tells them a story about the time he was a pilgrim and a turkey saved his life.
Let's Stalk Spinach
Popeye's nephews don't want to eat their spinach, so Popeye tells them about his youth, before he liked spinach. In a Jack and the beanstalk scenario, he climbs a spinach-stalk and encounters a greedy giant. He ultimately vanquishes the giant with help from spinach that he accidentally eats from a giant can, and the nephews chow down on their sandwiches.
Punch and Judo
Popeye drops a TV off at the orphanage; the program that comes on is a boxing match he's supposed to be in, so he dashes off. The fight is against the champ, who is huge. Popeye gets pummelled in the first round, but his fighting spirit materializes and advises him to outwit his opponent.
