- DirectorArthur DavisThe Pink Panther works as a reporter for the newspaper The Dailey Blabbermouth. He gets an assignment to interview the reclusive Howard Huge, who lives in a luxurious manor, but the gate guard repeatedly throws him out, and the vicious watchdog is constantly alert. The panther finally gets to meet Mr. Huge when he himself calls the gate guard, ordering him to let the panther in.
- DirectorSid MarcusThe Pink Panther goes on a cruise to the South Seas for 14 days, but the expected luxurious holiday turns out to be quite the opposite. The ship is a pirate ship, and the captain is a merciless pirate who orders the panther to squab the deck - or walk the plank. The panther mistakenly sets fire on the mast, which burns down instantly. When he is ordered to load the cannons, the rolling sea rocks the ship heavily and makes the pirate fall overboard and all the cannonballs to fall on top of him. The panther manages to escape the plank by giving the pirate sob stories about his old mother and his starving wife and family. When the pirate tries to kill a vicious shark with a cannon, the cannonball instead cracks a hole in the ship and it sinks.
- DirectorArthur DavisThe Pink Panther lives an easy life as Tarzan in the jungle, but when he irritates a big gorilla, he has to start using all his wits to avoid the ape. He finds out that the music drifting out of a transistor radio charms the gorilla and makes him start dancing, but the radio frequently runs out of batteries. Then the ape swallows the radio by mistake, but the music still keeps drifting from inside the stomach. The panther finds out the right way to get rid of the happily dancing ape.

When a particularly dangerous-looking spaceship arrives, the panther panics and closes his station, which makes the green little pointy-nosed man flying the ship furious. The panther tries to elude the man and his search robot by all possible means, even evaporating himself in a molecular disassembler and reassembling himself in another. The man does the same, but the panther throws a flower into the reassembler, which turns the man into part flower.
- DirectorBrad CaseThe Pink Panther's attempts to make an ordinary breakfast for himself result in nothing but mishaps.

He tries to get rid of the persistent duck, even sending it to Japan in a package. Come winter, come spring, and the panther receives a package from Japan, with the duck inside - so he decides to keep it as his pet. Immediately the duck adopts itself into the family of a real duck. Again, seasons change, and finally the duck is back on the panther's doorstep. It has travelled the world and got itself a family of its own.
- DirectorSid MarcusWhen the little white guy doesn't want to take part in a bullfight, he offers it to the Pink Panther, who steps into the ring.
- DirectorGerry ChiniquyThis cartoon consists of a series of string gags, as the Pink Panther finds a long string on the street and starts following it, leading him into various incidents in and outside the town. In one gag, he rips open the net in a tennis court in the midst of a match between two men, another one gets him completely tangled in string while skipping rope, and one gag gets him to practice water skiing as the string leads to a river - and straight into a waterfall.
- DirectorBrad CaseThe Pink Panther gets a job as a lumberjack. The trouble immediately begins when the axe blade flies off and cuts down the wrong tree, which destroys the manager's car as it falls down. When the right tree finally falls down, it destroys the lumber cabin, which makes the manager mightily angry. The panther is given a chainsaw, which immediately gets a mind of its own and starts chasing the panther, until he manages to crush it with a mallet. He instead applies a beaver to do all the woodcutting work. The work gets done so fast that the manager awards the panther with a big bonus.
- DirectorSid MarcusThe panther drops a coin while walking on the street, and it falls down a sewer. He buys a strong magnet, attempting to use it to get the coin back. Unfortunately, the magnet rips off anything metallic he passes by, including the watch from a man at a bus stop and the whistle, badge and uniform buttons from a policeman, and the panther gets in trouble with the law. When the panther finally gets back to the sewer, another man pulls up the coin with his own magnet.
- DirectorBrad CaseThe Pink Panther wants to mow his lawn, but his mower needs a new spark plug. However, the new plug falls from his hands, and it's found by a vicious watchdog who thinks it's a bone. The panther tries to get the plug back first by trying stilt walking, a balloon kit and a rope to walk on, then by digging himself under the garden and finally posing as a bone inspector.
- DirectorSid MarcusThe panther gets a job as janitor in a hospital. He dreams of becoming a doctor himself, and initiatively helps out patients by pulling a banana out of a man's ear and bandaging another man's sore finger. Again concentrating on his actual job, he causes nothing but trouble by ruining an x-ray photo and making a doctor slip on the newly-waxed floor.
- DirectorArthur DavisThe Pink Panther visits the laundromat, where he unintentionally causes misfortune to his fellow customer, the Little Man.
