Bette Boop's beloved "Grampy" wins the mayoral race and finds out the job isn't as glamorous as he thought. He's not at his desk more than a minute when people are literally popping out of the woodwork with complaints. Do this, do that....and threats to have him lose his job, blah, blah, blah."
Even Betty gets in on it, asking "Well, what are gonna do? You better get your thinking cap on."
Grampy always comes up with ingenious solutions to everything. Every city could use this guy as mayor! This guy is a one-man miracle-maker, even coming up with an idea to stop rain from falling.
I especially enjoyed the beginning with Betty's campaign song and then Grampy's neat bicycle/lunch counter/cane contraption.
