A lighthearted cartoon short built on slapstick chaos and mischievous revenge, where Donald's bad mood and hypochondria become the setup for comedic mayhem.

Donald's got the day off, and all he can think of is golf until it rains as soon as he sets foot outside. He takes it out on his nephews. When he's sitting around moping, they take revenge by playing off his hypochondria.
