Little Nemo in slumberland. "Hey! What's goin' on here?"
Summary
Twelve-frame comic strip. Nemo finds himself in the beak of a giant turkey. Soon he sees that Flip and Impy are also held in turkeys' beaks. The turkeys are upset because they have been plucked for Thanksgiving dinner. Nemo attempts to escape when his nightshirt rips, but he ends up on the turkey's back. He reaches the turkey's tail, but the turkey starts to spin quickly, making Nemo dizzy. That is when he wakes up on the floor.
