Donald and Pluto is one of the three installments of the Mickey Mouse series in which Mickey doesn't appear as a character, the others are 1937's Don Donald and Modern Inventions. The cartoon also introduced Fred Spencer's new design for Donald Duck, which included a slimmer body, shorter neck, rounder feet, and a shorter beak. Donald is a plumber fixing pipes in the basement of a house. Donald first has trouble with pulling his hammer off a magnet, which it gets stuck to. When he unscrews the lid covering the pipe, water spurts out and hits Donald in the face, angering him. To stop the flow, Donald uses the magnet to pull a larger hammer toward himself, which he uses to put on another lid to the hole. In doing so, he accidentally wakes Pluto and later accidentally pulls Pluto's bone away from him.
