Plot
The cartoon begins on a hot desert road, and Donald and Goofy's car breaks down and runs out of gas. Donald and Goofy were forced to walk down the desert path. Goofy pulls out a map to see if they're going in the right direction with a magnifying glass, but soon the map catches fire due to the glass' ray hitting the map. They also run out of water. Donald and Goofy then decided to go separate in order to find shelter.
Goofy was going west in the desert, but then sees a soda fountain, and decides to wet his whistle. The Arab Spirit appears and Goofy asks him for a soda. But just as Goofy was about to enjoy his soda, it vanishes, revealing it was just a hallucination. Goofy, confused, asks the spirit what happened, but he gives Goofy two more sodas. Goofy tries again to drink another soda, but they vanish as well. The spirit then offers four more sodas. After whistling for a short time, Goofy tries to grab all four sodas, but they just vanish. Goofy, now fed up, leaves the mirage, but the spirit commands him to owe him six bucks, but Goofy refuses. The spirit forces Goofy to clean several dishes.
Meanwhile, Donald, exhausted from the heat, complains for water, and soon sees an iceberg, and rushes to hug it, but the iceberg vanishes. Donald tries again and again, but the iceberg was just an hallucination.
Donald and Goofy crash into each other, and break several dishes. The angry spirit appears and attacks them with a sword, and Goofy and Donald run away and spotted a camel. They jump on to the camel and escape the desert, ending the cartoon.
