Mickey, Donald et Dingo sont des chasseurs de baleines. Donald cherche en vain une baleine et n'en trouve pas. Il sort alors un casse-croûte, qui risque d'être chapardé par de nombreux oiseaux. De son côté, Mickey essaye de vider un seau d'eau, mais l'eau revient toujours dans le seau. Donald remarque finalement une baleine. Dingo essaye de la harponner plusieurs fois, mais n'y arrive pas et prend une ancre comme harpon, qui avec sa corde, emporte Dingo. Le harpon arrive dans la glace. Dingo est au-dessus de la baleine, retenu par sa botte. Donald court à son secours, mais trop tard. Dingo tombe dans la baleine. Donald se retrouve le bec coincé dans la botte.

The film opens in the trenches of World War I where Ollie, Stan and the rest of their army company are ready to go 'over the top', but Stan is ordered to stay behind to guard the trench. Stock scenes of fighting are then seen followed by the caption 'Armistice'. Twenty years pass, and Stan is still guarding the post, as shown by the huge pile of bean cans he has accumulated, and the path he has worn pacing back and forth on guard. He is found by accident (after firing on a plane he sees approaching) and is brought home, feted as a hero. Ollie, who has been married for a year to the formidable Mrs. Hardy (Minna Gombell), sees him in a newspaper and visits him in the veterans' home. He finds Stan in a wheelchair, having apparently lost a leg, and invites him home. However, Stan is in fact just resting in another veteran's wheelchair and Ollie only finds out he still has both legs after pushing him around in the chair and then carrying him. Ollie, angrily: "Why didn't you tell me you had two legs?" Stan: "Well, you didn't ask me." They reach Ollie's automobile, which he says belongs to his wife and is 'practically new', but it is boxed in by a dump truck. Stan climbs into the cab to move it and inadvertently operates the dump mechanism, burying the car in sand and leaving only Ollie's head exposed. It is then completely wrecked when Ollie demonstrates the automatic garage door at his home and allows Stan to drive the car in to test it.
