Synopsis[]

After the Franks are invited to spend the evening at Timothy's, he attempts to hide anything babyish.

Summary[]

During recess the Franks play with Timothy. They show him how to properly hit the soccer ball with his head to avoid hurting himself. He has so much fun that he tells Yoko about it on their way home. It's then he notices Claude observing a picture of a bike and sees it doesn't have training wheels. Everyone hears the discussion and they claim those are for babies. Timothy agrees and they reach his house.

He heads inside and his mom informs him that the Franks will be spending the night because their dad will be working that evening. Timothy is disappointed and she expresses concern. Timothy asks if they can use dishes that don't look babyish, and she agrees, realizing he wants to look mature in front of his friends. Timothy is glad and heads to his bedroom to clean it up and hide Pengy, his stuffed penguin.

Meanwhile, the Franks are packing for their overnight stay while their dad reminds them to use good manners. They assure him they will and Frank 2 attempts to discretely grab something, but Frank 1 spots him doing it and asks what he has. Frank 2 doesn't want to tell him and their dad calls them to get ready and leave.

At Timothy's the boys rough-house until dinner. The Franks attempt to keep their manners but continue to eat messily, along with Timothy, and seeing this, his dad decides to wear them out with a game of basketball before bed. But this only tires himself and Timothy out, and they return inside. Timothy's dad tells the three of them to get ready for bed, changing and brushing their teeth. He waits a while before coming to check on them and finds them still goofing around. He reminds them about bed and the boys get into their sleeping bags, and he turns out the light before leaving.

Timothy and Frank 2 are uncomfortable, and when Timothy thinks the Franks are asleep he searches for Pengy, only to find a stuffed bulldog beneath the bed; which confuses him as the Franks join him. Frank 1 criticizes Frank 2 for bringing Bullie out of fear Timothy will start to make fun of them- but Timothy reveals Pengy to them and promises that he won't say anything as long as they won't. They agree and everyone lays back down, with Frank 2 and Timothy peacefully asleep. Frank 1 finds himself uneasy as he did not bring any source of comfort for himself.
