Anchors, The Salt Water Daffy #2
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAnchors and his crewmates sign up for boxing matches to earn respect aboard ship, only to discover they're scheduled to fight the heavyweight Tuggleburtz, leading to comedic chaos when Anchors' official papers go missing and he's forced out of the Navy. In a second story, "Please Omit the Flowers," Tuggleburtz plans to enter his prize geranium in a flower show while Anchors attempts to sabotage the plant, resulting in slapstick mayhem at the competition.
Anchors Andrews and his pal think signing up for the boxing matches is their ticket to respect aboard ship—until a clerical mix-up lands Anchors in the ring against the Navy's reigning heavyweight champ, Bert Tuggleburt. When his well-meaning friend tries to even the odds with a dose of sleeping pills, the plan backfires in hilariously unexpected ways.
Anchors Andrews is counting down the days until his Navy hitch ends, but his commanding officer Tuggleburt has other plans—he needs Anchors to re-enlist, so he tries a complete personality swap to win him over. When Anchors signs the papers, Tuggleburt reverts to his old drill-sergeant ways, sparking a frantic scramble to get those re-enlistment documents back before they're delivered to Ensign Herkimer. What follows is a wild chase across the ship filled with slapstick mishaps and desperate schemes that will determine whether Anchors stays in or gets out.
When a mysterious woman delivers a message aboard ship, Anchors Andrews decides she's the one—but his caveman approach to romance keeps getting him into trouble. His paper airplane love note goes hilariously awry, leading to a chaotic pier rendezvous where nothing goes according to plan and Anchors learns that sometimes the real hero gets the girl.
Anchors Andrews finds himself standing guard over C.P.O. Tuggleburt's prize geranium while the plant-loving sailor heads to a flower show—but when a shipmate's wayward sword swing destroys the delicate plant, Anchors and his quick-thinking pal must scramble to fix the damage before Tuggleburt discovers the truth. What unfolds is a frantic race against the clock filled with increasingly desperate attempts to keep the secret, all while the obsessed sailor grows more suspicious by the minute.
