Betty's car stalls out "a thousand miles from nowhere" on a mountain where the famous feud is going on between the Hatfields and the McCoys (except the latter is "Zonk Peters" in this cartoon).
She sidles up to the Peters' shed and gets a hostile reception at first. When Betty convinces them she's not a threat, just a dancer whose car ran out of gas, they all sing and dance. Actually, that's the best part, the second half with a great song-and-dance number that is fun to watch and hear. That's basically the idea behind this animated short, as it was with a lot of Boop cartoons: just a vehicle for music - in this case, some rockabilly.
