en	As the title states, Old Tom is homesick. Scrooge orders Donald to take him back to the Florida swamp where he was born to cure him, but during the trip a lot of troubles occur when searching for vacancy in hotels. Finally they reach Old Tom's swampy and wet birthplace, just to find out that Tom's old alligator mates don't recognize him and he now misses his previous confortable and easy way of life at Scrooge's farm.
