Porky’s boat, while still speeding, speeds into the water, until shooting out and starting to spin. He then spits out a fish and starts fishing.

Underwater, a fish tries to fish Porky, with a Donut as bait. The Fish captures Porky, and we are then introduced to the Fish’s wife and 2 kids. The Fish undresses Porky and tries to cook him, but he escapes.

Eventually Porky escapes and then, the credits roll.
