Jay Trotter drives a cab. His friend Looney, also a cab driver, has a secret microphone in his taxi to record his passengers' conversations. Looney has a tape of two men talking about a horse race and how one of the horses, due to some unethical practice by its owner, is a sure thing to win big. Jay goes to the track to place a bet—despite the fact that the day before, he told his wife Pam that he would quit betting and be home to "start their marriage over" at noon. In the restroom of the bar next door, he prays to God, "Just one day, that's all I'm asking for, one day, I'm due." A man exiting the bathrooms says "Ya? So's Jesus. Let it ride." Jay promptly places a $50 bet. The horse wins in a photo finish and pays $28.40 to win (earning him $710).

Set in a post-nuclear war of the year 2024, the main character, Vic (Don Johnson), is an 18-year-old boy, born in and scavenging throughout the wasteland of the former southwestern United States. Vic is most concerned with food and sex; having lost both of his parents, he has no formal education and does not understand ethics or morality. He is accompanied by a well-read, misanthropic, telepathic dog named Blood, who helps him locate women, in return for food. Blood cannot forage for himself, due to the same genetic engineering that granted him telepathy. The two steal for a living, evading bands of marauders, berserk androids, and mutants. Blood and Vic have an occasionally antagonistic relationship (Blood frequently annoys Vic by calling him "Albert" for reasons never made clear), though they realize they need each other. Blood wishes to find a legendary promised land where above ground utopias are said to exist, though Vic believes that they must make the best of what they have.

Mickey, Donald et Pluto sont partis dans les Alpes faire de l'alpinisme. Mickey vêtu comme un tyrolien est en tête de la cordée, chantant en yodel et grimpant avec son piolet une paroi verticale. Donald vient ensuite, vêtu de vert avec une plume rouge sur son chapeau mais avec sa voix nasillarde, la chanson est très altérée. Pluto est accroché au bout de la corde. Il profite pour découvrir la montagne, ses fleurs et le vide. Arrivé à une corniche, Mickey accroche Pluto à un rocher. De son côté, Donald cueille des edelweiss et tombe sur un jeune bouquetin qui mange les fleurs, ce qui le rend furieux. Mickey quant à lui trouve un nid et en prend les œufs dans l'espoir de les manger. Mais le busard femelle le surprend et l'attaque. Mickey lance sur la mère les œufs, qui éclosent en vol. Pluto reçoit sur la tête un des œufs et se bat ensuite avec l'oisillon nouveau-né. Pluto tombe de la corniche et se retrouve enseveli sous la neige. Un Saint-bernard, tonneau d'alcool accroché à son collier, sort de sa niche surmontée d'une croix-rouge et part déterrer Pluto, bleu de froid. Le malheureux chien reçoit de l'alcool pour se réchauffer mais devient ivre et tente d'avoir encore du breuvage.
