Cured Duck
2 views
Donald visits Daisy. When he can’t open a window, he flies into a rage and practically destroys her house. She won’t see him again until he takes care of that temper. He orders a mail-order insult machine, which promises that if Donald can endure 10 minutes of abuse without losing his temper, he’ll be cured. It proceeds to deliver physical and verbal abuse, and Donald is cured. He goes back and Daisy tests him on the balky window.

Daisy demands Donald fix his temper, so he orders a mail-order insult machine to train himself. It is the closest the studio came to writing an episode about Donald's actual character rather than around it, and the machine sequence is a small comic masterpiece of provocation and restraint.
