:'''[[Sue Ellen Armstrong|Sue Ellen]]''': [''narrating in imagination''] "Dear diary. Last week I received the most amazing package. It traveled halfway around the world, all the way from Dharamsala, India. [''Tenzin packages the box''] The package was sent to me by my pen pal, [[Tenzin Wangdu]]. He's Tibetan, and even though I've never met him, I think he's really cool! Inside was a sweater made by his mom of real yak wool. Yaks are a kind of shaggy cow that only lives in the Himalayas. It was so soft. I put it on right away. It was a little big, but I didn't care. It was instantly my favorite sweater. It felt magical, like I could almost feel the snow from the Himalayas around me. But a lot can change in a week. Now when I look at that sweater, I don't think of Tenzin, or the Himalayas, or the yak that the wool came from. I only think about how mean people can be."

Mr. Ratburn: I was surprised too, Arthur. It doesn't seem like you. But when you continue to tease someone, even after they have asked you to stop, that's bullying.

'''UNFINISHED'''
 
Arthur: Why aren't you speaking to me?
 
Buster: I'd tell you, but I'm not speaking.
 
Muffy: You just did it again! Ugh! C'mon, Francine. Let's sit at a table that doesn't have any ''bullies'' at it.
 
[Muffy glares at Arthur and walks away]
 
[Arthur calls after her]
 
Arthur: I'm not a bully! [turns to Buster] What did I do wrong?
 
[Buster holds up his finger and opens his mouth, then makes a lip-zipping motion. He takes a notepad and pencil out of his pocket and writes a note to Arthur. He holds the note up to Arthur's face.]
 
Arthur: "Your letter to Sue Ellen." What about it?
 
Buster: It was terrible! That's why I'm not speaking to you. Which I'm clearly not very good at!
 
[Buster leaves the table]
 
[Arthur gasps]
==Lakewood Elementary School Parking Lot==
[Arthur stands outside as the others walk torward the bus. He catches sight of Sue Ellen and waves at her.]
 
Arthur: Sue Ellen! Wait up!
 
[Sue Ellen hears Arthur and turns around. Arthur runs up to her.]
 
Arthur: Look, I'm really sorry, okay? I never meant to hurt your feelings. Can we please just forget it and be friends?
 
Sue Ellen: Do you still think I overreacted?
 
Arthur: Umm...well...
 
[Sue Ellen sighs]
 
[She walks Away]
 
==Living Room, Arthur's House==
[Arthur is watching TV on the couch.]
 
Announcer: Tune in next week when Bionic Bunny faces Truck Man!
 
[Arthur switches off the TV. He smiles and looks at the phone. Walking over, he dials Buster's number.]
 
Buster: Hello?
 
Arthur: Hey, Buster! What are you doing?
 
[Buster remembers that he is not speaking to Arthur and claps his hand over the receiver. Arthur sighs.]
 
Arthur: Buster, I know you're there! You just said hello!
 
[Buster alters his voice to sound like that of an answering machine.]
 
Buster: You've reached the Baxter residence...leave your message at the beep. Bye, Arthur! Oop—I mean—aw, forget it!
 
[Buster slams the phone down and hangs up. Arthur does the same and walks off.]
 
Arthur: This is so unfair!
 
[Arthur moves to the computer and gets on a photo editing software. He takes an image of a headless Sue Ellen body, crops a sheepdog head from another picture, and then adds the head to the body. He expands the head before adding the final image as an attachment to an email to Sue Ellen. After hitting Send, an unsure look appears on his face.]
==Sue Ellen's Bedroom==
[Sue Ellen is typing on her computer. Suddenly, an icon appears telling her that she has mail. She clicks on the link, and is surprised to find Arthur's sheepdog image. Tears appear in her eyes  like she is crying as she exits out of email. The scene fades back to Sue Ellen writing in her diary like in the intro of the episode.]
 
Sue Ellen: [narrating in imagination] ...now, when I look at that sweater, I don't think of Tenzin, or the Himalayas, or the yak that the wool came from. I only think about how mean people can be.
 
[Sue Ellen takes the sweater off the chair near her computer and stuffs it into a bag. She leaves her room with the bag.]
 
Sue Ellen: Mom? I have to talk to you about something.
 
==Lakewood Elementary School Hallway==
[Arthur is putting some food in a can drive bin outside Mr. Ratburn's door. He looks up as Sue Ellen walks up and places the bag with the sweater in a clothing drive bin.]
 
Arthur: Ooh! There you are! I tried to call you this morning. I'm really sorry I sent you that picture. I felt bad as soon as I hit send! But I was just upset because—
 
Sue Ellen: ...you thought I overreacted. I know. You've told me.
 
[Sue Ellen walks off and Arthur sighs.]
==Lakewood Elementary School Cafeteria==
[Arthur is sitting at a table with Binky, Slink, and Rattles. Binky points to Arthur's bean dish.]
 
Binky: You gonna eat those beans?
 
[Arthur gives the beans to Binky, who pours them down his throat. Muffy and Francine walk up to the table.]
 
Francine: Well! I hope you're satisfied, Arthur Read.
 
Arthur: Look, I said I was really sorry for sending Sue Ellen that email. But she didn't—
 
Francine: What email?
 
Arthur: The one I—isn't that what you came to yell at me about?
 
Muffy: No! We came to yell at you for making Sue Ellen ask to switch classes!
 
Arthur: ''What?!'' Because of ''me?!''
 
Francine: Of course! She doesn't want to be in a class with a bully!
 
Arthur: I have to talk to her! Where is she?
 
Muffy: She was in the hall a few minutes ago. But haven't you done enough damage already?
 
[Arthur leaps up from his seat and runs out of the cafeteria.]
==Lakewood Elementary School Parking Lot==
[Sue Ellen is getting into her father's car. Arthur bursts through the doors.]
 
Arthur: Sue Ellen?
 
[Sue Ellen gets in her seat and slams the car door.]
 
Arthur: Sue Ellen! Wait!
 
[The car speeds away.]
==Lakewood Elementary School Hallway==
[Arthur is walking back near Mr. Ratburn's classroom by the collection bins.]
 
Arthur: She can't be changing classes because of me!
 
[Arthur notices the bag with Sue Ellen's sweater in the clothing drive bin. He picks it up, and looking at the sweater, has a flashback of all the mean things he did to Sue Ellen:]
 
Arthur: Hey! You left your backpack behind. Bad dog!
 
Arthur: Who's a good sheep doggy? You're a good sheep doggy! Yes you are!
 
Arthur: Are you sure it was a fashion show and not a...dog show?
 
Arthur: ...it was just a joke.
 
[The flashback ends. Arthur stares at the sweater and shakes his head sadly.]
==Lakewood Elementary School Parking Lot==
[It is the next day. Sue Ellen's dad drops her off at the front of the school. Arthur walks in front of her and she gasps.]
 
Arthur: I'm not going to say anything mean, I swear. Just—please listen to what I have to say?
 
[Sue Ellen angrily crosses her arms.]
 
Sue Ellen: Well?
 
Arthur: You didn't overreact. I ''have'' been a bully. I just didn't realize how hurt you were. But now I do. Please don't switch classes.
 
[Sue Ellen uncrosses her arms.]
 
Arthur: You're one of my best friends! And if you stay in our class, I promise to never treat you like that again. And I promise to wear this—
 
[Arthur rips open his jacket to reveal the sweater.]
 
Arthur: ...every day for the rest of the year.
 
[Arthur holds out his hand.]
 
Arthur: Deal?
 
[Sue Ellen smiles and shakes Arthur's hand.]
 
Sue Ellen: Deal. But I think I'll take my sweater back.
 
Arthur: It really is the warmest thing I've ever worn.
 
[Sue Ellen puts her arm around Arthur and the two walk up the school steps.]
 
Sue Ellen: And soft, right? Although it does kind of make you look like a big mouse. Squeak squeak, squeak! Squeak squeak!
 
[The two walk into school and the episode ends.]
