Subject Matter
anthropomorphic, mystery
Mickey Mouse; Goofy; Marmaduke Mouse; Black Pete; Scupper (Pete's first mate); other members of Pete's crew; townspeople of Tabasco Bay; tourists
As a publicity stunt to put life into the faded resort town of Tabasco Bay, Mickey dreamed up a "Pirate Days Festival," the climax of which was to be a "raid" by a gang of "pirates," however Black Pete is using the make-believe raid as a cover...
Taking the place of the mock pirates performing at the Tabasco Bay "Pirate Days Festival", Black Pete and his tramp-steamer crew plunder the town and its amused citizens and tourists. Only after Pete sails off with the loot do the victims realize the unfortunate truth. Meanwhile, Pete has Mickey and Goofy bound and gagged in the crow's nest of the restored pirate ship and has framed them as the leaders of the pirate gang. The pair try to make their escape, but not before the faux pirate ship, drifting in a dense fog, runs into Pete's tramp-steamer.
