Oh, how we danced
Poor Dagwood, in the past he's committed one flub after another and in the Bumstead tradition always manages to somehow come out on top because someone upstairs likes him. But in Blondie's Anniversary the ball starts rolling when his bachelor boss Jerome Cowan starts with his male member at the sight of Adele Jergens who is the secretary of Grant Mitchell who wants to hire Cowan's firm to build a hospital. What Cowan doesn't know is she's in league with a pair of unscrupulous contractors, Edmund MacDonald and Fred Sears, who will way underbid Cowan with the use of inferior materials.
It all starts to come apart when Cowan gives Arthur Lake money to buy an expensive watch for Jergens to get in good with her and with Mitchell. Lake buys the watch, but Penny Singleton thinks the watch is her anniversary present. That leads to all kinds of complications including Dagwood going to a loan shark played by William Frawley. Now that was Dagwood's decision and one of the worst he ever made in the history of the Blondie series.
Once again the Bumsteads prove they're the special interest in a merciful providence.
