Sypnosis

Huey, Dewey and Louie Duck are enjoying a nice, leisure swim in the lake. But they were being watched behind the SCHOOL sign, by Truant Officer #13-Donald Duck. He had a duty to uphold: to make sure all kids are in school. So he captures Dewey and Louie, but Huey swims away. So Donald throws out a fishing line and eventually lands him. So he drives them to the schoolhouse in his truant officer van. While he endlessly goes on about the importance of a good education, the boys pull out their rather large pocket knives, manage to cut themselves out of the van and make a run for it. Donald soon notices the back of his van is gone, so he chases the boys to their clubhouse.

He tries to get in, but fails, so he jacks up the clubhouse to load onto his van. But the boys manage to reverse the jack so it comes back down on top of Donald. He tunnels out and decides to smoke the boys out. Meanwhile inside the clubhouse, the boys are cooking three chickens over the fire when suddenly they notice smoke pouring in. They decide to beat Donald at his own game. They put the chickens in the bed and escape through the roof. Donald peaks inside to see if his ploy had worked, and saw the three cooked chickens in the bed and thought they were the boys--cooked alive.

Donald is very beside himself. Then, Huey disguises himself as an angel and is lowered into the clubhouse. He manages to kick Donald in the butt. The second one causes him to fall and his disguise falls off.This causes Donald to finally capture them and take them to school.But in a Twist ending as they reached school donald was shocked as he noticed that school is closed for summer holidays which give the nephews an angry glare to him causing donald to shrink by embarresment because of his mistake.
