Popeye returns from a record-setting trans-Atlantic sailing trip. He has spent seven sleepless days and nights on the high seas. He is very tired and needs sleep. He wants to call Olive Oyl but he falls asleep. He starts to sleepwalk onto the roof of the boat. Olive Oyl follows along, trying to prevent him from being hurt. She ends up getting in more trouble than Popeye does.
Olive becomes a victim to some crooks that put her in a trash can. She has to be rescued by the police. Olive goes to find Popeye to tell him about her adventures. The now-awake sailor offers to take her out. However, before they go anywhere, Olive falls asleep from all her excitement.
