Dad's Dessert Dilemma

Dad's Dessert Dilemma is the second half of the 7th episode of Season 3. It first aired on November 16, 1998 along with Arthur Rides the Bandwagon.

Summary
Arthur brings a cake his dad made to a party in Mr. Ratburn's class celebrating Galileo's birthday. Everyone likes the cake, so Arthur asks his dad to make more, but this causes his dad to run behind on the regular orders for his catering business.

In a subplot, Mr. Ratburn always goes to get cake wherever it is, pretending to be delivering the spring reading list.

Trivia

 * Arthur mentioned that Fern's birthday was "coming up", meaning that her birthday is shortly after February 15th, Galileo's birthday; unless he was mistaken.

Goofs

 * Prunella was seen in Mr. Ratburn's class when she is in the 4th grade.
 * Galileo's birthday is February 15, and there are no Valentine's Day decorations leftover in the hallways from yesterday. Also, there is no snow on the ground outside, despite Elwood City being a city that gets snow in the winter.
