A frenetic, slapstick cartoon short where Donald Duck's incompetence and Pete's relentless pursuit create escalating physical comedy on a construction site.
Donald is a riveter who has trouble with the riveting gun, heights, and the foreman, Pete. Pete chases him throughout the construction site, causing the building to collapse. Donald runs away while Pete is trapped in cement, holding a water hose in the pose of a statue.
