Plot summary:  

Panchito Pistolas (which is Spanish for "Peanut Pistols") is a gun-toting Goucho (Spanish cowboy) who is apparently close friends with Donald Duck and Jose Tapioca. The Three of them hop aboard Panchito's serape magia (which is Spanish for "magic carpet") and tour Mexico and the rest of Latin America to explore the magic and beauty of this multi-cultural land (though it was really to win favor with Latin America to support the U.S. during World War II.)

Along the way they encounter many beauties, mostly on the beach. Here Donald takes a gander (ha!) at the lovely ladies of Rio and exposes the fact that he's not a duck at all, but a Mexican horny toad. Jose and Panchito fight to drag him off the beach, and convince him to forget the women and stick with his Caballeros, who know what's best for him (and what Daisy would do to him were she to find out.)

User Comments: This guy is a walking racial stereotype. He's wearing a sombrero and six shooters, for crying out loud. I just don't like him. If I'm going to watch a cartoon rooster, he needs to be bashing a hound dog in the ass with a piece of ply wood, not chasing after a bikini-crazy Donald Duck. I kept waiting for him to put Donald in the double-arm chicken wing so Bobby Heenan could smack his bill off.
