A microphone comes down. Francine: Presenting the main event! The champion, Arthur Timothy Read! Arthur: [walks to the ring while people cheer and throw flowers and climbs into the ring] I've been waiting for this fight for years. And there's no way that I could lose. Francine: And the challenger, Dora Winifred Read! [D.W. rides down a ramp on her bicycle and does a somersault into the ring. She is wearing a bicycle helmet and has a unicorn on the back of her robe. Buster takes off Arthur’s robe. D.W. takes off hers and reveals a shirt with a picture of Arthur’s head with Xs for eyes. Buster puts Arthur’s gloves on. Nadine waves her wand and gloves appear on D.W.’s hands. Both Arthur and D.W. get mouthguards. Francine waves both to the center of the ring.] Arthur: [mumbling through his mouthguard, and incoherent] Prepare to lose! [Subtitle: Prepare to lose!] Girl and D.W. #1: What? Arthur: [still mumbling through his mouthguard, and incoherent] Prepare to lose!!! [Subtitle: Prepare to lose!!!] Girl and D.W. #1: [pointing to the subtitles] This doesn't help. I can't breathe. Francine: Get ready to fight! [The two boxers circle each other] D.W. #2: Arthur! Arthur: [sees D.W. #2 sitting in the audience eating snacks, and still mumbling through his mouthguard, and incoherent again] Two D.W.’s?! [Subtitle: Two D.W.'s?!] D.W. #2: Nope, not just two D.W.s. But there was only one of me. In the ring, the other boxer takes off a D.W. mask, revealing himself to be Binky. Arthur’s mouthguard drops out of his mouth. Binky: [stepping out of his D.W. body suit] We figured you'd rather fight someone on your own size. Arthur: Well, you know what? Maybe you might be right. And I would like to fight someone on my own size. Now you just stay right here. I'll just go find somebody to fight. [runs off, pursued by Binky, screams] Binky: [enraged] Come back here and fight! D.W. #1: [laughs] Binky?! Arthur sits at his desk with a model kit D.W.: [walks into his room] What kind of a game was this? Arthur: This is not a game. This is a scale model of a Bell X-1 Rocket Plane. The plane that broke the sound barrier. D.W.: The sound barrier must be pretty hard. [takes out some pieces] Because this plane is all smashed up. Arthur: Nope, it's not smashed. And I'm gonna build it. [yells to D.W. while snatching the pieces from her] Hey, stop touching everything! You'll mix up all the pieces! D.W.: I’ve never heard of toys that come already broken. Arthur: [while lividly, and relentlessly staring to D.W.] No, it's not! D.W.: [backs up from her brother] I'm going. Never say that I didn't go when you need me to go, because I'm going. Like this. [snaps her fingers] And the minute that you need me to go, I'm on my way out of there. No waiting. Arthur: [turns red, and yells] No time, no time, no time! For a very important date! (Just) go already I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! D.W.: [with voice raised and sounding genuinely annoyed] Come on, Arthur, there is no time to say please, I go even faster! Because when... Arthur: [growls to D.W.] Grrr! [scornfully sends D.W. out of his room] The next day, Arthur paints the model in the dining room. D.W. suddenly appears beside him Arthur: Ugh. D.W.: Was this the same broken plane you were fixing yesterday? Arthur: [yells to D.W.] Don't do that! I need to concentrate! D.W.: This is a pretty color. [accidentally spills a paint bottle of orange paint over the building instructions which annoys Arthur] Arthur: [yells] Aargh! D.W.: [getting a little nervous, and laughs] Bye. [quickly runs off] Arthur: Hmph. Later, Arthur and Buster walk upstairs Arthur: I've been working on the plane all week. And it don't understand make her bossy traitor, but I'm almost done. [They enter Arthur’s room and find D.W. holding the plane’s fuselage, and Arthur gets grumpy, and yells to her] D.W., don't touch it! This paint isn't dry yet! [snatches the plane away and sees fingerprints all over it. D.W.’s fingers are colored orange] D.W.: Ew! [runs off to tell her mom] Mom, Arthur's plane made my hands orange! Buster: I never thought about it before, but being an only child was so nice. Later, Arthur puts the finished model on a stool in his room Arthur: This is the best thing I have ever made. In his imagination, Arthur sits on a table on a stage. Beside him sits an astronaut. Astronaut: Arthur Read. You've won a blue ribbon. [puts the ribbon on the model] Arthur flies the Bell X-1. The fantasy ends Arthur: Well, this calls for a celebration snack! [walks downstairs with Pal] D.W.: [comes out of her room] Didn't I hear you say cookies? [sees the plane in Arthur’s bedroom, then unwisely walks inside, and enters, without approval, and consciously defies] Arthur: [gives a dog treat to Pal] Good boy. D.W.: [runs around holding the plane] D.W. Read to headquarters! Sound barrier broken! What's my next mission, General? [sees the open window] Arthur: [pretends to be an airplane, makes airplane noises] Arthur Read, winner of 5000 blue ribbons, requesting landing coordinates! [makes airplane noises] Outside the window, the model plane falls to the ground, and accidentally got a little broken D.W.: [comes down] Arthur, maybe you made the plane all wrong. It doesn't fly at all. Arthur: No, D.W. I just made it exactly... [realizes what D.W. had said, in shocked] What?! The screen shattered like glass Outside the house, the sky has become gray Arthur: [looks up at the open window, gasps, then down at his plane on the ground, and picks up the fuselage, when some of it got accidentally loose, and looks shocked, and trembled] In his imagination, he flies the plane, but it suddenly falls to pieces. He hovers in midair for one second, then he falls, followed by his helmet and, finally, his glasses. Arthur: [screaming] The fantasy ends D.W.: If it could broke the sound barrier, falling out of the window shouldn't be able to shatter like this. Arthur: [getting annoyed, wasted, and stern, losing his mind, cringes, and rebukes D.W.] I told you not to touch it! D.W.: [mad] THAT'S IT!! Do this, do that! You're just too bossy to break it. It was way too bossy would fired! I'm too angry! YOU ARE FIRED!!! You did not just ever read the directions!!! [Having enough of D.W., Arthur grinds his teeth, and firmly makes a fist] It didn't fly for a second!!! You, just a show-off, You did not finish this game!!! I’ve had quite enough is enough of your excuses whatever I warning about plane that couldn't fly! Arthur: [Suddenly Snaps And He Launches Into An Rage Outburst In Anger, Furiously Growls And Angrily Strikes Out At D.W., Gets Snapping And Loudly Ticked Off] I'M ANGRY!!!!!!!!!!!

Arthur: [Yells Back At D.W.] YOU'RE GROUNDED, D.W.!!! D.W.: [whines, turns red with angriest and enraged with high-pitched, savagely screams] LIIIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRR!!!

NOT TO TOUCH IT, YOUR HEIRS!!!!!!!!! [elevated his fist, and punches D.W.] [off-screen] D.W.: [falls to the ground, and looks a little blank for a minute, then gets up, and instantly runs off, when going back inside the house, crying] Arthur bends furiously in fury and he started kicking and punching over the broken plane when he hears his mom Mrs. Read: [sternly calling to Arthur to come inside the house] [off-screen] Arthur Read, You're grounded for complete disaster when enough is enough, I've ruined their lives, and I wish I'd never been born! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT ANYMORE AS LONG AS I LIVE, I WISH I HAD NEVER BEEN BORN!!!!!! Arthur: [getting a little screwed, tense, and serious by grunts in frustration with a huff] PHOOEY ON FIGHTING!!! [gets up]In the kitchen, D.W. sits beside the kitchen sinkD.W.: [quietly whimpers on the kitchen counter]Her dad gets an ice pack from the refrigeratorD.W.: [whimpers] Weren't they gonna have to amputake my arm? Mr. Read: No, hon. It's amputate, but not amputake. D.W.: [surprisingly shouts] They are gonna amputate?! Mr. Read: Nope. I am in charge, and I'm putting ice on it. D.W.: [loudly roaring, shrieking, and crying in pain]Mr. Read: What's the matter? D.W.: [restlessly crying in pain] That's cold!Arthur and his mother stand in the hallwayMrs. Read: [disappointedly telling Arthur to apologize to D.W. for being hostile] What’s the matter? Apologize is no good when you're angry about your sister and you're refuse to be gone. What’s wrong? Arthur: [withholding to apologize to D.W.] No! This is the stupidest time to me a favor and the "worstest" rule, I'm frustrated! I'm the not like me anymore because they don't want to play with 37B of the contract signed by him, it states quite clearly that all offers shall become null and void IF - and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy! And Cassie didn't invite me to her picnic, and then everyone's beginning to believe I'll never see my "et cetera, et cetera... "Fax mentis, incendium gloria cultum," et cetera, et cetera... "Memo bis punitor delicatum!!" It's out of the control without decided to make a puzzle instead of a picnic! I can do whatever I could even push one piece together, they STOMPED on the floor, which now has to be pushed me away, because I'm the king of a grouchy girl sometimes... I'm the boss! they're gonna mess it up and it's all your fault, and then before I will be able to our army, would still be alive, it's your fault she's mad!! And now I don't apologize to me! I've been working all week on this! I tell her a million times not to touch it without looking hard enough, and I wish I'd never been born!!!!Mr. Read carries D.W. while passing themD.W.: [bitterly losing control of her outrage] You're bad! You lost a moss-covered, three-handled family gredunza if I'm saying bossy to you! If you're way too bossy what word I'm not supposed to say, It's too bossy, I'm disappointed. I am very disappointed!A while later, Arthur sits on a chair in the living room facing his parentsMr. Read: [angrily scolds very pissed to Arthur for mistreating D.W., and his deeds] You're bossy, Arthur! This means no TV for a week. Arthur: [he ragefully stomps, firmly fumed] Why bother? I'm stupid to misunderstand anyway! I had nothing, no, NOTHING, that's grouchy than unfair! [turns away] You didn't even care about what she did to me, and I wish I'd never been born!! I said it again! I wish I'd never been B-O-R-N, born!! Mrs. Read: [confusingly telling Arthur that she, and Mr. Read will deal with what D.W. did] Shh, Just calm down, calm down. We will deal with what she did. But what you did was wrong too. Arthur: [sarcastically misunderstood when overreacted by being harsh to D.W., and gets irritated, and ragingly huffs] Traitor! [short pause] You-you can never talk to me, Go away and no right to talk to leave me alone, and I said it again! I wish I'd never been B-O-R-N, born! I wish I'd never been born! I said, "I wish I'd never been born!!" There, I said it again! I WISH I'D NEVER BEEN BORN! Humph!The next morning, Arthur and Buster arrive at schoolArthur: [gently provoking] So, I've missed Bionic Bunny from last night, and now I didn't get to watch TV for one week. Can you believe that?! Buster: [withholds to listen to Arthur's story] Well, no. I didn't believe it. You've hit your sister? That was horrible.They pass Binky, with Rattles, and the Tough CustomersArthur: Come on, like you never did hit anyone. Buster: Nah. Binky: [overhears Arthur, and Buster's conversation, and thinking that Arthur hitted his sister] Didn't you hear that? Arthur hit his sister! I, for one, am shocked! Dog Boy: [asks how Binky had been shocked, giving his difficult report] How come you'd be shocked about somebody hitting somebody? Binky: Why? Molly: You're Binky Barnes. You've always... [realizing] You know what, I couldn't remember the last time you had hit anyone. Binky: Uh... what do you mean? [The Tough Customers, and Rattles disappointedly stared to him in annoyance, before they heard the school bell ring] Oh! There's the bell! Ha! We don't wanna be late! [The Tough Customers, and Rattles quickly walked inside with him]The Tough Customers cornered Binky at his lockerMolly: So, when was it, Bink? Dog Boy: Binky doesn't have to remind us for his past glorious fights. Binky: Yeah, that's right. Dog Boy: And this is why that he's not afraid of no one is a well-established factoid. Binky: Yeah, that's right. Dog Boy: And he can prove it easily by socking the very next kid who turns around this corner! Binky: Yeah, that's right. [shocked] Wait, what?!Arthur comes around the cornerMolly: Go ahead, Binky. Just sock him.Arthur passes byBinky: [tirelessly] Maybe I didn't feel like it. Molly: [severely] WELL, YOU BETTER FEEL LIKE IT OR YOU'LL MOVE OUT OF THE CLUB IN NO TIME! Binky: [fuming, and protests] But I can't be out of the club! That's my club! And I founded it! Molly: Well, if you needed anything on your own way, you shouldn't have let anyone else join! But the next time when you see that kid, you'll sock him!The other Tough Customers left Binky behindBinky: [getting concerned] The next time when I see Arthur, I'll just have to hit him. Oh. But what should I do now? [gets an idea] Wait. What if I never see him?Arthur sits in the classroom with Buster, Francine and Muffy.Francine: Arthur, why didn't you just apologize? Arthur: [still annoyed, and gently objects] Come on, she collapsed my plane. Why couldn't anyone see my side of this? Muffy: [replies] Um... because you're wrong.Binky walks into room while keeping his back turned to Arthur,s and avoids looking in his directionFrancine: [turns to Binky at the next table] Oh. Hey, Binky. Didn't you hear that Arthur hit his young sister? Binky: Well, I haven't seen Arthur yet. But as far as I know, Arthur isn't even here. Francine: Binky was a little upset about what Arthur did that he won't even look at him.Class has startedMr. Ratburn: When the day and night are of equal length, it was called the equinox.The school bell rings and Binky quickly walks out of class immediately, and then met the Tough Customers againMolly: Did you sock that kid yet? Binky: I haven't seen him yet. [snickers] I'm so smart. [walks away]Binky: [waits outside the school cafeteria] Psst. Hey, is Arthur in here? Francine: Well, yes. Binky: Well, maybe I'll just eat outside then. [walks outside]Francine: Binky won't even get to eat near Arthur. Buster: Well, that was awful. Maybe, we should bring them together. Then Arthur will thank us.Shortly afterwards, Binky is having lunch on the lawn behind the schoolBuster: [drags Arthur out of the door] Binky was out here somewhere. Binky: Er.. oof! [jumps into a bush, when a soccer ball flies into the bush]Sue Ellen: I'll get it! [Binky hands it out] Thanks. [stops and comes back] Binky, what are you doing? Binky: Avoiding Arthur. And if I didn't see him, I didn't have to hit him. Sue Ellen: Oh. Well, why would you need to hit Arthur? Binky: I didn't. And this is why I didn't need to see him. Sue Ellen: Hmm... Boys. [walks away]Binky: [paces outside the boys’ room, Brain comes out] Was Arthur in here? Brain: [shakes his head] Well, nope. Binky: [walks in, very relieved] Oh, uh... thanks, thanks, thanks so much!After recess, the kids come insideArthur: [talks to Fern] She shattered my plane! Fern: But she was just a little girl. Arthur: Saying that D.W. was just a little girl was like saying a tornado, just like a little wind.Binky is hiding behind an ornamental plantBuster: [stands beside him] Hey, Arthur! Over here! Binky: Shh! [grabs Buster and pulls him behind the plant. Buster stands beside him]Arthur: I thought somebody had called my name.The school bell rings and the kids leave the buildingBinky: [holds an open book around his head] I made it through one whole day. Now only... the rest of my life to go.Binky, Molly, Rattles and the Dog Boy walk past the Sugar BowlBinky: So I never saw that glasses kid again. I probably never will. Arthur: [runs after them. Binky looked very surprised to Arthur running towards him, Rattles, and the Tough Customers, implying that Binky's scheme of avoiding Arthur backfired] Hey, Binky! You dropped your pen when you walk out of school, kind of sideways, at the end of the day. Molly: [whispering] Now, here's the chance you have been waiting for. Dog Boy: [whispering] Show her, Binky. Just tap, and pop him one.[Binky looks around at the Tough Customers who grin expectantly, and gulps, then sinisterly looks at Arthur, who holds the pen, and "pops him one" by hits him on his arm]Arthur: [falls] Ouch! Molly: All right, you're right. He will hit anyone. Dog Boy: OK, Binky. You're still in your club. Binky? Where are you going?! Wait! Binky!Binky rushes, and runs off in discomfort, when the Tough Customers rushed after himArthur: [holds his arm in pain] Ow! Molly: All right, maybe you're right. He's gonna hit anyone.After Arthur gets a taste of his own medicine, the scene pans to the kitchen. That is, where Arthur is getting his injury treated.Later that evening, Arthur sits beside the kitchen sink, and his father hands him and ice pack. Arthur: [holds the ice pack on his arm] And the next thing I knew, I was on the ground. It hurt, and it was so embarrassing, and... D.W. and her mother come in. Mr. Read: Well, maybe this is how D.W. felt when you punched her. As a result, the incident makes Arthur understand how D.W must have felt. Arthur: Well, yeah. But what's it got to do with this? Binky Barnes was huge! Mrs. Read carries D.W. to the kitchen, and his parents just looked to them Arthur: [calmly] Yeah, I guess I kind of get it now. D.W.: [smiles] Arthur: [walks into the dining room where D.W. is waiting] I'm sorry for hitting you. D.W.: And I'm sorry for shattering your plane. But what kind of a weak plane doesn't fly? Arthur: A model plane? D.W.: Well, I didn't even know yet. But I'm just a little child. Just give me a break. The next day, at the park, Binky sits on a swing looking worried. Arthur rides by on his bike Binky: Hey, Arthur. I feel really rotten earlier. I just wanted to apologize. Arthur: I just wanna say thank you. Binky: [gets up] Huh... what? Arthur: Well, everyone had told me that I was wrong, when I didn't get it. [feels his balls] But... you made me understand how bad I made D.W. feel. Binky: Well, you're very welcome. But I didn't try to help you learn some boring lessons. But it was just an accident. The other Tough Customers come Dog Boy: [points to Arthur] Hey, it's the kid, again, who got hit by Binky, and now lived with him. Molly: Now you've deserved to be in his club, kid. Binky: [walks to Tough Customers] Actually, there was no club. But I founded it earlier, and now I'm de-founding it. Because any club that makes you wanna do something you don't wanna do was so dumb. Anyone else wanna make something of it? Dog Boy: Um... nope. Binky: Come on, Arthur. Let's go get a soda. Molly: Oh, man. Now he's got no club. Hmm. Binky: [walks up to them] Do you guys wanna come with us? How about if we just form a new club with no dumb hitting, and all this stuff? And because if anyone does break the rules, I will clobber them.

Francine: There's only one problem. Nothing's ever happened to us. They start walking home. Arthur: Are you kidding? What about when we first had Mr. Ratburn? We thought he was a monster. Buster: Right. Or when I moved away. Francine: I guess you could do something about when I taught Arthur to play baseball. Prove It [4.4b] The Blizzard [4.5a] Mr. Ratburn: [enters the classroom] Sorry, I'm late. Let's jump right into work. [Just then, the lights in the classroom go out] Mr. Haney: Bad news!
