Looked through the list of online shorts. Couldn’t find the one I wanted, or if it was there, I didn’t see it. 😕

Donald is driving, finds a motel. Refuses to pay two dollars for a room. Sleeps on a pesky inflatable mattress. Misfortune ensues.

Does this sound vaguely familiar to anyone? I know I’ve seen it hundreds of times as a child.
