Cartoon Synopsis:

Wimpy seems to have come into a large mysterious fortune. Popeye, concerned, trails Wimpy and discovers that he has a genuine crystal ball which forecasts the stock market, etc. Brutus, who has also trailed Wimpy, decides to get the crystal ball and use it for his own purposes- evil, naturally. Wimpy reports that his crystal ball has been stolen. Brutus turns up in top hat, big car, cigars, etc. Popeye is certain that Brutus is the culprit. Brutus sees Popeye following him and sets various traps. There's a terrific brawl over the ball, and in the fight, the ball is smashed. However, Wimpy isn't upset. He has set aside some frozen assets for a rainy day: a bank vault full of frozen hamburgers.
