A Restauranter hires two men to install a jukebox in his restaurant. The establishment is crawling with cockroaches (all of whom are portrayed with cartoonish characteristics, complete with colorful hair and affects). Pigtails hides underneath a matchbox that is supposedly crushed by the jukebox, while her friend Beanie watches on. The rest of the cockroaches examine the new jukebox for the evening with Green Hair entering through the coin slot. He activates the machine as the interior is revealed to resemble a club. The rest of the cockroaches enter through a small crack in the glass discovered by Cigar and Eyepatch. All the cockroaches enjoy their new hangout as Beanie remains outside, concerned for Pigtails. In the morning, the jukebox locks itself up with the cockroaches still inside as the men from earlier come and retrieve it, revealing themselves to be exterminators. Pigtails is safe and sound as Beanie checks on her, while the Restauranter smokes a cigar in victory. Beanie and Pigtails scurry away into a hole.
