Quacker, the stubborn duckling, is convinced that all ducks fly South for the winter. He packs his suitcase and knocks on Jerry’s mouse hole to tell him about his winter holiday plans. Jerry informs the duckling that “wild ducks are migratory birds and fly South every winter,” but “domestic ducks (ie: Quacker) are primarily farm fowl and do not fly South for the winter.”
Quacker is unconvinced and sets off on his travels, even though he cannot fly. He catapults himself straight into Tom’s mouth, giving Tom a taste for roast duck. Thus, every attempt of Quacker to fly results in Tom attempting to catch or cook him.

After repeatedly rescuing Quacker, Jerry runs into an airport and flies with him, by aeroplane, to Florida. Tom chases after the two, onto the runway, but is too late to board the plane. He does arrive with Jerry and Quacker though, as a stowaway, clinging to the wheel. On a Miami beach, Tom eventually catches up with Jerry and Quacker, trapping them under a bucket.
