Reception
Motion Picture Herald reviewed the short on October 11, 1938, saying: "The fowl is a messenger boy this time, commissioned to deliver an infernal machine on Friday the 13th. His errand is stymied by a playful but very black cat which is unintentionally but most amusingly instrumental in preventing Donald's death by dynamite. Donald is less quarrelsome and deal more understandable than commonly. It's one of his best appearances."
