At home, D.W. keeps trying to scare Arthur, but it's no use, as he just won't budge. He turns the tables by taunting her before going to bed, leaving D.W. really upset. | |||
The next day, Arthur is more hesitant and seems frightened. In class, Mr. Ratburn overlooks the replicas one by one. | |||
[[Alan Powers|Brain]] then shows him and the others how much work he put into his own replica when it lights up. [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]] then asks if bats give people rabies, but both Brain and Mr. Ratburn deny this. Mr. Ratburn then scolds Francine, and tells her it's perfectly natural to be frightened at first. | [[Alan Powers|Brain]] then shows him and the others how much work he put into his own replica when it lights up.
