Andy Panda's Pop is a 1941 animated short starring Poppa Panda.

Plot[]

Andrew P. Panda (Andy's pop) asks the Acme Roofing Company if it will repair his shoddy roof. He is quickly turned off by the exorbitant price ($200) and determines, "I'll fix it myself!" Naturally, Pop isn't the most skilled of workers, but does his best anyway. The ladder collapses, so Andy's pop tries hurling rolls of roofing paper. However, the flying paper snatches him to the roof. His best turns to his worst when an annoying pelican distracts him by making the roof his new home. Pop angrily tries to rid himself of the feathered pest (who just wants to mind his own business) and destroys the roof more than ever in the process. Furious, Pop falls through the skylight, landing (conveniently) near the telephone. Admitting defeat, he again calls the roofing company, only to be irately told, "Fix it yourself!"
