Private Notes
Andy Panda is conducting the Hollywood Washbowl Orchestra in a Sunday afternoon concert. It's one of those afternoons when everything goes wrong. A frog gets entangled in Andy's wig, but he finally manages to extricate himself. Andy's stiff shirt front catches on a nail. Yank and jerk as he will, it won't come loose. The orchestra, following every yank and jerk, goes into a very snappy jam session. A pig, a squirrel, a flock of birds and a cat do their best to interrupt the concert, but in spite of everything, Andy manages to hold forth and keep the musicians playing. An adagio dance by two ducks is interrupted by a hungry fox who starts to chase the ducks.
Andy and his dog, Milo, share their house with an obnoxious rodent who enjoys tormenting the two above anything else. Finally, the two decide the only way they can rid themselves of the pest is for the two to just plain move out. They pack their bags and move to a new house leaving the mouse behind. With no one to torment, the mouse decides life isn't worth living anymore and attempts to end it all until he finally discovers their new address, moves in with them, and resumes tormenting the two.
Andy Panda is very fond of apples and he eats a bushel of green apples, falls asleep and has a nightmare in which the devil is trying to entice him into Hades and stuffs him full of apple juice, applesauce and more apples. (In Andy's defense, since Andy was taught not to eat green apples, the devil had spray-painted the green apples red.)
Woody Woodpecker, reading the story of "The Grasshopper and the Ant," is unimpressed. What saps the ants are storing food for winter! says lazy Woody. Work isn't for Woody, so he flops into a hammock. Six months later, he wakes up under a blanket of snow, famished. With starvation staring him in the face, he hears a wolf (literally) at his door. Woody grabs a book, "How to Cook a Wolf."
Woody Woodpecker, who lives upstairs at Wally Walrus' boarding house, is enjoying a game of indoor golf while Wally takes a bath. The ball lands on Wally's head, causing a sudden end to the golf game. With nothing to do but take a bath, Woody's dime for the hot water meter falls down the drain. Retrieving his dime requires a bit of ingenuity and the help of a long wire, a wrench, a jack, a sledgehammer and finally some dynamite. The combined operations reunite Woody and his dime, but they're too much for Wally and his rooming house, each of which ends up a complete wreck.
Driving along a mountain road, Woody Woodpecker sees a sign which asks: "Have you renewed your driver's license?" Woody comes to a quick stop, looks at his driver's license, and discovers that it will expire in three minutes. Woody steps on the gas and soon arrives at the license bureau, where the cop in charge (Officer Wally Walrus) is fast asleep.
Palsy Walsy, somewhere in the romantic South Seas. Suddenly, a terrible storm sinks their ship at sea and casts them ashore on a tiny, deserted tropical island. When scant food is the order of the day, they each think that the other would make a great dinner. Famished, they dream of roast woodpecker and roast wolf. They begin a chase in their efforts to eat each other. A gooney bird sidetracks their cannibalistic urges temporarily, but they soon revert to numerous tricks and subterfuges, such as Woody's wooden fish on a trout line to lure Wolfie into a pot of soup, or Wolfie trying to put Woody through a bread slicer while Woody grinds the wolf through a meat grinder. The gooney bird stops the assorted mayhem by donating a tableful of food, but Woody tricks Wolfie into sampling a wolfburger, the meat portion of which is the wolf's own leg.
Andy Panda goes shopping for a flower to decorate his lawn but the poor flower is attacked by a very nasty weed that threatens to choke the life out of it. Andy does his best to get rid of the menacing and stubborn weed.
