==Summary==
"'''Matchmaker, Matchbreaker'''" is the 2nd half of the 6th episode of ''Arthur's'' [[Arthur (season 12)|12th season]]. Together with "[[The Cherry Tree]]", it first aired on April 20, 2009. It was written by [[Allan Neuwirth]] and the storyboards were done by [[Zhigang Wang]].
Francine and Muffy scheme to set up their teenage siblings Chip and Catherine, but their plans don't turn up well.
 
==Plot==
When Muffy's brother, Chip, comes back from College for a visit, Muffy plans to have a dinner party and invites the Frensky family over. During the dinner, Catherine and Chip mingle. Francine and Muffy see the teens and go too far thinking that they will become sisters if Chip and Catherine were to get married. They agree to go to the theater and ask Chip and Catherine to take them. During the movie, Muffy gets unhappy at Francine for Catherine not sharing the arm rest with Chip, and Francine gets offended at Muffy because of Chip not getting Catherine a drink. They stay calm and over hear Chip asking Catherine to hang out after the movie. Muffy comes by with good news saying that they are going to hang out at the Chickin Lickin' the next afternoon. Francine and Muffy disguise themselves and observe Chip has brought along Angi, one of Catherine's friends. They start to disagree and blame each other for the incident at the movies, then leave. At home, Francine chooses to write a letter to Catherine from Chip saying that he is moving to Alaska, whereas Muffy makes Bailey call Catherine for a survey and later edit it. Chip and Catherine receive the messages and plan to go to each other's homes. The pair realizes that it was Muffy and Francine, and notify them by saying that they are just good friends.
