There is evidence of an epidemic, revealed to be an eye disease, which is spreading fast among the koalas, causing blindness and death.
Gumley has contracted the disease, and he and Dot are trying to raise money to pay for an operation, but they are unsuccessful.
A kangaroo named Dosey suggests that Dot goes to Hollywood, where she will be able to raise the money in no time.
In Hollywood, Dot meets many famous people and goes to an audition, which she hopes will lead to earning some money.
Footage is featured from the films The New Adventures of Tarzan, Moviestruck, Something to Sing About, Little Princess, and Flying Deuces.
