Popeye and the Goons march into Capital City and into Congressman Blutos office. They are met by Blutos staff assistant who feeds them a bunch of confusing jargon and a foot high stack of forms, which they are instructed to complete, sign, and return before their request can be considered in six months. The Goons lock arms to start a sit down protest when Popeye says, This is me final straw! Popeye opened a can of spinach which he downed in one gulp. Spinach was Popeyes source of strength, but he had a few other tricks up his sleeve. He reached into his pocket, removed a head of garlic and a bunch of carrots, and swallowed them down. He felt the strength surge from his toes to his head to his forearms and fingers. He took a deep breath and blew out fire. Then he scanned the building with his X-Ray vision. He could see Bluto sitting at his desk standing over a man gathering papers off the floor. You Goons were right! I should have never stopped ya. Now lets save our island! Yuk yuk yuk. Im strong to the finich, cus' I eats me spinach, garlic, and carrots. Im Popeye the all seeing firebreathing ex-sailor man! Popeye bashed through the door of Blutos office and grabbed him by his tie. Stop the drilling on our island you congressman you! I cant its too late. You have to complete the request and then wait six months while we consider it. Its too late for you Bluto. Your'e going to Pluto! Yuk yuk yuk. Popeye breathed fire on Bluto charring his suit. Then he grabbed Bluto by the neck and the ankles stretching him like a rubberband before letting go. Bluto shot through every floor and then some before landing on the roof. He saw stars swing around his head then passed out. Lets go save our Island Goons! The Goons rob the office candy jar then storm out of the office chanting Hi Ho Hi Ho the oil drillers must go! RC15
