Sue Ellen writes in her diary about the yak wool sweater that her Tibetian pen pal Tenzin recently sent her. And yet, she looks at the sweater differently now. Instead of pride, she now looks at it as a means for how mean people can be (foreshadowing what is to come). | Sue Ellen writes in her diary about the yak wool sweater that her Tibetian pen pal Tenzin recently sent her.

After the title card, Sue Ellen unveils her new sweater on a cold day at school for the first time. For some reason, Arthur cannot help joking about the sweater, saying that it makes Sue Ellen look like a giant sheepdog. Although it is simply slight, mild teasing at first, Arthur can't seem to let it go — he frequently continues picking on Sue Ellen over and over with one 'sheepdog' line after another, even after Buster, Francine, Muffy and the others have since stopped laughing. Arthur even draws a picture of Sue Ellen's head on a sheepdog's body (with the words "Happy Sheepdog Appreciation Day") and tapes it to her locker. | After the title card, Sue Ellen unveils her new sweater on a cold day at school for the first time.

That night, Arthur photo-shops a picture of a sheepdog's head onto Sue Ellen's body and then e-mails it to her. However, he appears to feel a little pang of remorse after doing so. | That night, Arthur photo-shops a picture of a sheepdog's head onto Sue Ellen's body and then e-mails it to her.

The next day, Sue Ellen donates her yak sweater to the school's clothing drive. Arthur tries owing her an apology once again, but she knows that he still doesn't mean it and turns her back on him. | The next day, Sue Ellen donates her yak sweater to the school's clothing drive.
