Two elephant boys trick Dumbo into believing he has broken a chunk out of the moon. He flies through space to repair it, but is hooked by Wynken, Blynken, and Nod in their flying shoe. The trio guide him to a sky castle which is the home of a magic giant. They say he can give Dumbo enough green cheese to repair the moon. The giant keeps Dumbo in a birdcage until a mosquito helps him escape and return to Earth.
