Pleased to Meet Cha!

Original release date: March 22, 1935

Suitors Popeye and Bluto arrive at Olive's house (Bluto at the back door, Popeye at the front) to court Olive. Olive can't decide which doorbell to answer, but it's a moot point when they both burst in and start whomping on each other. Olive tries to make peace by having them both sit with her on the couch, but they still whomp on each other when she's not looking.

When Olive says one of the guys will have to go, Bluto offers that the guy who does the best trick can stay. The "tricks" involve more whomping, and Olive seems unusually content to watch her two beaus beat each other up, at least until they start destroying the house. (It's always funny until somebody puts a house out.) Popeye opens his spinach can unusually elaborately, gets Bluto out of the way, and cleans the house in two seconds flat.
