Transcription

Plot

On a stormy night, Donald and his nephews overhear a radio announcer, Breckenridge, notify the listeners that a gorilla named Ajax has escaped from the city zoo. As a prank, Donald frightens his nephews with gorilla hands. Vowing revenge, the nephews dress up in a gorilla suit and sneak up behind Donald as he reads, taking a bite of Donald's lollipop. Donald, comparing the bite to the gorilla's fangs, runs away in fright.

At the same time, the real Ajax appears in front of the window, breaks into the house, causing the nephews to flee. Donald, now aware the nephews tricked him, chase the boys, running right into Ajax. Donald, assuming the gorilla is the nephews in disguise, discovers that this is the real gorilla. The radio announcer advises listeners to master wild animals by looking them straight in the eye. Taking the advice, Donald stares into the gorilla's eyes, seeing a tombstone destined for Donald, and flees.

Donald and his nephews sneak through the house, but the nephews first spill melted wax on Donald's tail before accidentally burning his rear. Donald, boiling with rage, sends the triplets away, but burns his hand on the now superheated doorknob.

Donald searches for Ajax, who is swinging from the rafters. After a stare-down, and at the urging of his tail, Donald runs away, beginning a chase. Donald briefly triumphs by tricking Ajax up a ladder, where he crashes through several floors of the house, ending in the attic. Ajax resumes the chase, with Donald using the ladder as stilts.

Donald is trapped in the dining room table, the leaves having flown into Ajax's hands. At the suggestion of the radio announcers, the nephews use tear gas in an attempt to stop Ajax, who begins to cry. Donald is also affected by the tear gas, and Ajax and Donald close the short by consoling each other.
