Description[]
After Goofy sees a scary movie about plants taking over the world, he fears that his plants may try to take over his house. Mickey attempts to calm his fears by having him see another movie with his nephews, but unfortunately for Mickey's plan, the movie is about fish who take over the world - causing Goofy to believe that his two pet goldfish may be out to get him!
