Chef Donald
Donald is listening to a radio cooking program and mixes up a batch of waffles, but he’s distracted and uses rubber cement instead of baking powder. The batter proves to be unusually stiff… His spoon gets stuck, and the batter acts like a rubber-band airplane, flying the bowl around the room. Next, Donald gets his head stuck into the batter (and his tail in the waffle iron). He tries to chop it with an ax; the ax flies up and splits the room in half. He throws the bowl out the door; it sticks to the knob and finds its way back in.
Donald's kitchen versus a batch of batter made with rubber cement — one of the great single-idea Donald shorts. It belongs to the sub-genre where an inanimate object defeats him utterly, which is where the character is at his funniest and, oddly, his most sympathetic. Children find the escalating dough genuinely thrilling.
