Donald's Failed Fourth

Donald's Failed Fourth is an animated short originally featured in the first episode of Mickey Mouse Works. It was later featured in the House of Mouse episode "Everybody Loves Mickey".

Plot

It's the Fourth of July and Donald Duck has found the perfect picnic spot to watch fireworks under the stars with Daisy. He battles the blanket, wrestles the lawn chairs, and combats the picnic basket until, finally, the site is set. But when Daisy arrives, she discovers that Donald has miscalculated and they can't even see the fireworks. Donald is disappointed to discover he has messed things up once again, but Daisy thinks the view is very romantic - a beautiful full moon.

Trivia

• This was one of the few shorts to not have Daisy played by Tress MacNeille.
• Despite being Fourth of July themed, this short aired 2 months and 3 days before the event.
