Plot
Bluto is trying to make a buck by spraying mud on the windows to make people think they're dirty. Up 20 stories (or at least Popeye says that) is Olive Oyl, public stenographer. Wiping all kinds of windows, Popeye and Bluto get into a bitter quarrel between who's better at cleaning windows.

Reception
The scene with "Olive Oyl's typing is a fun example of exaggeration in The Paneless Window Washer by Fleischer Studios."[2]
