action
It's summer and tick, trick and track bathing in a lake instead of going to school. Her uncle Donald Duck , who as Truant Officer No. 13 has the task of bringing truants to school, gradually catches his nephews and transports them to the schools in a barred car. The escape succeeds in tick, trick and track. They settle in a self-built, wooden pirate hut and successfully repel Donald's break-in attempts several times.
Donald starts to light a fire in the hill on which the house stands so that the smoke will drive the three children out of their house. They now put three roast chickens in their bed wearing their hats. When Donald comes into the house and sees the three roast chickens, he is deeply saddened by his behavior. One of the nephews, disguised as an angel, is lowered from the roof of the house to Donald using a fishing rod. He kicks Donald several times, who makes it happen with contrite. When the fishing line loosens, the vertigo is exposed. Donald brings tick, trick and track to school like felons tied together. However, a sign on the front door announced that it was closed for the summer holidays. Donald shrinks apologies to miniature size while the three nephews glare at him.
