The fickle maiden puts Buster out of her hammock and invites Brooks to sit in beside her. Buster runs home crying. His father to comfort him takes him on his lap and shows him pictures of cannibals. Buster falls asleep and dreams that he is an explorer and has been wrecked upon a desert island. Being weary he lies on the sand to sleep. Fijiwiji, a cannibal girl, discovers Buster and awakens him. Buster, while he is making love to her is surrounded by cannibals. The cannibals tie him and lead him before the throne of King Kaliko. Calling his cook, the king told him to put Buster into the fattening pen. In the pen. Buster decides that he'd better make the most of his last moments and takes out his watch to see how many last momenta he has. Fijiwiji who has been hanging around to comfort Buster, sees the watch and hears it tick. She is astonished. She calls the cannibals. They release Buster and declare him king. Fijiwiji leads him to the throne and all the cannibals bow low before him. King Kaliko returns and Buster orders him prepared for dinner. Buster now reigns supreme and orders elaborate preparations for his marriage to Fijiwiji. But alas, although a savage, Fijiwiji is "a female of the species" and curious. Her curiosity is so aroused by the watch that she cannot keep her hands off it and at last she lets it fall. When they pick it up it is silent, it is broken. When the cannibals come again and bow before Buster's throne asking him to let them hear the watch, Buster tries to bluff it off. When Buster fails to make good on the tick-tick proposition, his subjects begin to mutter and finally Bolo Bill gets it into his head that Buster would be of more service to the island community in the pot than he would on the throne. He leads the others to the pen where they release King Kaliko. Buster is wise enough to know that his reign is ended and the jig is up, so grasping Fijiwiji's hand he cries, "Let's beat it." They do. They both run down the beach. Brandishing spears and emitting ear splitting and blood curdling cries, the cannibals pursue them until Buster wakes up on his father's lap and hangs on to his necktie for dear life.
