Plot
The Pink Panther is a stowaway on the cruise ship Luxitania, on which a famous opera star is sailing. While the ship's captain courts her, the steward who is also assigned to her (The Little Man) finds the Panther and tries to capture him. However, the Panther's food-pilfering and the stewards attempts to catch him keep disrupting the opera star and Captain, and he feels the wrath of the Captain every time.
The highlight of the cartoon is the Panther's epic struggle with an un-cooperative chaise lounge, which eventually comes to life and chases the Panther and the steward off the ship onto a deserted island.

Famous quotes containing the word plot:
“But, when to Sin our byast Nature leans,
The careful Devil is still at hand with means;
And providently Pimps for ill desires:
The Good Old Cause, reviv’d, a Plot requires,
Plots, true or false, are necessary things,
To raise up Common-wealths and ruine Kings.”
—John Dryden (1631–1700)
“We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time-sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The king died and then the queen died” is a story. “The king died, and then the queen died of grief” is a plot. The time sequence is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it.”
—E.M. (Edward Morgan)
“Morality for the novelist is expressed not so much in the choice of subject matter as in the plot of the narrative, which is perhaps why in our morally bewildered time novelists have often been timid about plot.”
—Jane Rule (b. 1931)
