This Joe McDoaks short is unusual because it's all narrated in verse and by a frequent guest star in the series, Arthur Q. Bryan*. It's the story of Joe McDoakes...a rookie cop who wants to make a good impression. Unfortunately he's incredibly timid and time and again he is bullied or taken advantage of people. Ultimately, he turns from a patsy to an angry jerk...and his timing couldn't be worse.
While this is only a moderately funny short, the ending is very good and the short is worth your time.
*Bryan was the voice and physical inspiration for Elmer Fudd. So, as he narrates you can't help but recognize his familiar voice.
