the film begins with a gong being struck several times. a curtain then rises to a view of 4 chinese people ironing a shirt. they then break out in song, singing nonsense phrases, parodying mandarin. then, a servant who is carrying tea and walking in time to the music, slips on a bar of soap and falls into the bucket used for cleaning clothes. a cleaner then notices him and scolds him. he then retrieves the tea which is in the basket. he pours a cup and drinks it. the servant notices the bubbles and runs. once the cleaner notices, he comically removes and shakes his head to stop the bubbles. he then laughs and continues cleaning. then, a jewish man appears at the front desk, saying that he has a ticket. he hands it to the receptionist, who has trouble understanding the hebrew text on the card. he then asks the other men about it, but to no avail. so, the receptionist asks the jewish man about it. the jewish caricature then explains that the card is for a cleaning of his beard. which the receptionist does. then, the jewish man leaves happily. the servant, who is in a room by himself, takes out his saxophone, and tries to imitate rudy vallée, by comparing himself to vallee to a photograph in his jacket. he tries several times, before giving up and blowing a raspberry at the photo. there is then four men in a sauna singing phrases of nonsense, again, parodying mandarin. the servant, in the middle of the song, breaks his saxophone again and starts to play it in time with the song. the men realise and the town descends into chaos. until, a stick of dynamite blows up the entire town. the four men which were featured at the start of the cartoon then descend from the rubble and sings the last section from the song which appeared at the start. the film ends with the four men saying "chop suey".
