Synopsis
Bluto makes a life-sized Popeye marionette to mess up the real Popeye's "usual" rendezvous with Olive. Bluto manipulates the "Popeye Puppet" to abuse Olive, thus making her hate Popeye and hook up with Bluto instead. Popeye discovers Bluto's scam and turns the tables on him (by tying puppet strings to him), after which he gives him a sound thrashing.

Puppet Love
Classic cartoon! Popeye Vs Bluto again for Olive Oyl's affection! The puppet play is classic PUNCH AND JUDY, with Olive ending up more confused and fickle than ever!
