In this short, the pink and cyan quips are stranded on a small island. The cyan quip is getting hungry, so he imagines a piece of ham, which the pink quip eats from the cyan quip's thought bubble. After the pink quip burps, the cyan quip thinks about an anvil, which lands on the pink quip, resulting in the cyan quip jumping high. Although the pink quip is flattened, he thinks about a hole, which appears on the ground as the cyan quip falls right through it. The pink quip laughs, however the cyan quip unexpectedly lands on him. The pink quip then throws up the piece of ham, which the cyan quip eats.
