Line 19: ==Plot== The cartoon opens with a [[live action]] sequence of [[Cab Calloway]] and his Orchestra performing the instrumental "Prohibition Blues". Then Betty Boop gets into a fight with her parents, runs away from home with her friend, Bimbo, and sings the [[Harry Von Tilzer]] song "They Always Pick on Me" (1911). Betty and Bimbo end up in a cave where a walrus, with Cab Calloway's voice, sings "[[Minnie the Moocher]]" and dances to the melancholy song. Calloway is joined in the performance by various ghosts, goblins, skeletons and other frightening things. Betty and Bimbo are subjected to skeletons drinking at a bar; ghost prisoners sitting in electric chairs; a mother cat with skull-like eyes feeding her equally empty-eyed kittens; and so on. The film ends with Calloway performing the instrumental "Vine Street Blues". ==External links==
