Margie's father pretends to be sick to get out of work, asking her to bring him pills and medicine with a "gruesome touch." She applies talcum powder to her face and visits his boss Mr. Honeywell's office, where she convinces the boss that her father has purchased a patent for a miraculous hair-growing product that will make them a million dollars. The scheme backfires when her father's hair and mustache fall out due to the patent formula, and Margie must find a way to fix the situation. The story concludes with Romeo and Daisy helping Margie operate the "smart boy" device, and Margie successfully getting her father to do his homework and household chores while keeping him occupied after school.

When Vern Albright accuses his daughter Margie of forgetfulness after a series of household mishaps—broken appliances, a missed guest arrival—the tables turn in this playful domestic comedy by Chic Stone. As Margie scrambles to fix everything and prepare for an important weekend visitor, her father's own absent-mindedness comes back to haunt him in the most embarrassing way. A lighthearted reminder that sometimes the person pointing out everyone else's mistakes is the guiltiest one of all.

Ya Can't Win

When his plan backfires in increasingly ridiculous ways, Romeo discovers that outsmarting authority might be trickier than he bargained for.
