Bingo & Molly

Molly is invited to sleep over at her Cousin Lou's place, but she is nervous about leaving home for the first time. With Molly away, Bingo invites Duck to spend the night, the very same Duck who quacks incessantly in his sleep.

Excited by the fact that it is her birthday, Gladys runs to check her mailbox, convinced it will be full of cards, but alas, there are none to be found. It appears everyone has forgotten her birthday. Or have they?

A glorious morning inspires Bingo to paint. Upon taking a clean canvas outside to begin, he discovers that he needs new paints, a new brush, and a new easel. That is when he turns to Gladys, Duck, Zigger, and Mr. Growl for assistance.

Gladys has submitted a poem into a competition believing it will win. After her poem fails to finish first place, things go downhill for Gladys and friends, that is until Mr. Growl recounts the story of the Hot Potato for some perspective.

Bingo is very proud of the magnificent space rocket he has built. Molly accidentally breaks it. Upon attempting to fix it, she only makes matters worse. Molly then runs off leaving Duck to take the blame for breaking Bingo's rocket.

Bingo and Zigger are worried about Duck, who has not changed or washed his clothes for weeks and is beginning to stink. Duck, unaware of the source of the foul smell, thinks it may be coming from the stinkwood splinter in Molly's finger.
