Goofy faces termination from his position as a janitor at the Ludwig Von Drake History Museum after his repeated mistakes have drawn criticism from his rival Pete, but he gets one final opportunity to prove himself by preparing the facility for the grand opening of four new exhibits. Armed with his latest creation—the Extend-O-Hand, a multipurpose tool fitted with various attachments—Goofy convinces Professor Von Drake that he can handle the overnight preparations and earn not just job security but a promotion to head janitor. The prospect of Goofy's advancement infuriates Pete, who has been secretly listening to their conversation and seethes at the notion that his incompetent adversary might actually succeed with the help of his contraption.
