Chris Columbus, Jr. (Oswald the Lucky Rabbit) is one of few individuals who believe the world is round.
Thinking Chris has tricked them into sailing so they would fall off an edge, the first mate rallies the other shipmates to turn against and dispose of their captain.
After spending several days there, Chris and his shipmates sail back to Europe, although one of them chooses to stay.
The film was reissued under the title of Christopher Columbus, Jr. Also, the scene where the Spanish queen smashes a bottle on one of the crewmen during the christening was removed.
