The nephews try to play an April Fool’s trick on Donald, but all their efforts backfire (from WDC&S #127, April 1951), a tale that is representative of a period in the life of Carl Barks when he didn’t know how to do a story that wasn’t funny. The new William Van Horn cover illustrates one of Huey, Dewey and Louie’s aborted gags, the money you see in the billfold only one dollar but it soon, to their dismay, becomes Donald’s. Chapter Three is the conclusion to “The Castaways of Whale Bay,” wrapping up a long Mickey Mouse adventure drawn by Paul Murry from Carl Fallberg’s script.
