Presented in the mockumentary style of previous Robert C. Bruce-narrated spot gag cartoons, the story focus on a giant baby that had been delivered by the drunken stork to a married couple. The giant baby escapes the couple from their house and wanders into the streets. The stork eventually delivers the giant baby to its correct parents but then delivers the married couple's actual baby (which he had delivered to the giants) to a kangaroo inside the zoo.

Notes

This was the final cartoon to use the original "bullet" sequence for the ending titles. The next cartoon By Word of Mouse, would use smaller backgrounds for the ending titles as well. This was also the final cartoon in the 1953-54 season.
