Synopsis

After having no luck with the ladies, Willoughby (voiced by Pinto Colvig) falls in love with "Daisy", a metal statue of a female dog in a garden, failing to realize that "Daisy" is indeed a sculpture. Whenever Willoughby kisses Daisy, lightning strikes and sends a shock through his system, which he takes as a sign of her passionate love for him. The hero constantly has to contend with a vicious bulldog who is guarding the gate to the garden. After Daisy is carted away in a truck marked "Scrap Metal for Victory" to be melted down (as a contribution to the American effort in World War II), Willoughby runs frantically to the munitions depot, trying to find Daisy, only to find a bomb labelled "Daisy". As he cries over Daisy's changed appearance ("Oh, what have they done to you? They've changed you!") and kisses it, the bomb explodes in his face, leading him to cry out happily ("WWWWWOOOOWWWWW! Huh Huh! She hasn't changed a bit!").
