A lighthearted 1930s cartoon comedy built on mistaken identity and slapstick chaos, where Mickey's paranoia about a radio killer leads to comedic misadventures with a harmless parrot.

A parrot washes up in Mickey's basement. Mickey hears it talking and thinks the parrot is the killer he's just heard about on the radio. While Mickey is skulking about the basement, Pluto runs into the parrot, first hidden under the fish, and then inside a leftover turkey.
