Donald's Award

"Donald's Award" is an animated episode of Disneyland.

Synopsis
Walt Disney opens the show by telling of how his cartoon characters are like family, but that like all families, there is always a "problem child", this case being Donald Duck. He then goes on to say that Donald's short temper had become so unbearable, that he offered Donald an award if he can go a week without having someone file a complaint about his behavior. However, when the complaint box set up for the bet remained empty through the week, Walt has suspicions of how that would be possible for someone like Donald as signed on detective Jiminy Cricket to investigate what was going on. Jiminy goes out to interview several Disney characters about Donald, while the Duck himself tries to stop him in his tracks.

First, Jiminy goes to Chip 'n' Dale, who relate to Jiminy about the time Donald tried to cut the limbs off of their tree. Jiminy then goes to Donald's girlfriend Daisy Duck, who tells about the time she attempted to curb Donald's temper. Afterwards, Jiminy goes to Donald's neighbor Pete, who is suffering a broken foot after Donald's tangle with him over his trombone playing. The next subject is Mickey Mouse's dog Pluto, to relates how he became Donald's victim for hypnotizing. Finally, he goes to Buzz-Buzz the Bee, who tells of how Donald tried to steal the honey from his hive.

After interviews with numerous other Disney characters, Jiminy goes off to the complaint box to file everyone's complaints. To his surprise, he sees a hand reaching from the box and taking the complains. Jiminy then discovers what's been going on: Donald stole the complaints and tore them up so he would appear to have good conduct and revieve the award. To teach Donald a lesson, Jiminy lets Donald have his award, making Donald think it's another complaint and tear it up. Once Donald realizes what he just did, he breaks down crying and JIminy reminds him to "always let your conscience be your guide".
