While they were inside, Donald simulating extremes of weather. Chip thought he decided to get their tree back. In the end, when their tree has a hole in it and ends up on the railroad track, Chip puts the "Giant Redwood" sign on front of the tree and he and Dale take advantage of this to say it is a scale model of California Giant Redwood with a tunnel.
