The kids' Uncle George is in town, having brought with him a wild man from Borneo. Dad doesn't want him near the house, but Mom sends Dickie, Dorothy and Spanky (joined by the gang) to visit him at his sideshow tent. The kids, however, think that the wild man is their Uncle George, and the wild man is basically a grown child who is pacified by candy, which he calls "yum yum eat 'em up." When Stymie pulls out some candy, Bumbo exclaims "Yum yum, eat 'em up!" which sets off a wild chase, as the kids think it's THEM he wants to eat.
