It's time for the kids at Lakewood Elementary to take the Stoddard-Wilkins Elementary Aptitude Test, or "S.W.E.A.T." But with anxiety running high, it becomes clear that the kids need to learn some relaxation techniques.<ref name=ket/> | It's time for the kids at Lakewood Elementary to take the Stoddard-Wilkins Elementary Aptitude Test, or "S.W.E.A.T."

Later, Arthur and Buster are at [[The Sugar Bowl]] doing some math problems together. [[Sue Ellen Armstrong|Sue Ellen]] then shows up, and she comments about of the vocabulary tests. After Arthur notices some extra marks, scribbles, and doodles made by a different type of pencil, he proceeds to tell Sue Ellen that she didn't follow the directions on the test; they're not to make any extra marks and to use a #2 pencil and not any other one. Sue Ellen took a dislike to the pencil when Arthur offered her one, and asks what would happen if she used a different pencil than that one. Suddenly, [[Binky Barnes|Binky]] appears behind them and says that she'd either have to retake it or they'd just fail her, and that he's seen brave third-graders cry like preschoolers when they face the S.W.E.A.T., due to them folding under pressure. He speaks in a phony pirate accent, leaving the trio bewildered. | Later, Arthur and Buster are at [[The Sugar Bowl]] doing some math problems together.

Back at home, Arthur tries to take a practice test, but is distracted by many annoying things: [[David Read|Mr. Read]] using his leaf blower, D.W. watching [[Mary Moo Cow (show)|Mary Moo Cow]], [[Jane Read|Mrs. Read]] grinding apples, and a drippy faucet in the basement. | |||
One morning at Sue Ellen's house, Sue Ellen is sleeping and her alarm clock beeps, causing her to wake up and remember it's S.W.E.A.T. day. Her pet pencil leaps on her bed excitedly, but Sue Ellen regretfully tells it to stay home. Disappointed, the pencil writes her a note that says "Why not?". Sue Ellen replies that it's because it's not a #2 pencil. Sue Ellen looks for the one Arthur gave her, and goes into a panic when she can't find it. She runs out of the house in her pajamas, and then runs into an army of giant #2 pencils that erase everything in sight. Sue Ellen wakes up, and realizes it was just a nightmare. | One morning at Sue Ellen's house, Sue Ellen is sleeping and her alarm clock beeps, causing her to wake up and remember it's S.W.E.A.T. day.

When his test arrives at school on his desk, Brain gasps. Then, his next panic is that he doesn't have a pencil. Sue Ellen gives him a spare, and Brain chews on it nervously. Buster asks Mr. Ratburn if they can have a moment, and he allows one. Buster then gives Brain a relaxation tutorial, until Mr. Ratburn cuts in when Buster is starting to go off-topic. Brain feels better, and says that he couldn't have asked for better relaxation tutors. Mr. Ratburn then starts the tests, and the episode finishes. | When his test arrives at school on his desk, Brain gasps. Then, his next panic is that he doesn't have a pencil.
