Arthur wakes up and asks the audience whether they ever wake up right before their alarm goes off. Pal then jumps on his bed and [[David Read|his father]] comes in and asks Arthur is he is up. While brushing his teeth Arthur explains that he was probably up early because he was nervous due to today being the first day of 4th Grade. He fears a large wart growing on his face and the Tough Customers laughing at him. After packing his school bag Arthur tells the audience that he's not sure wherever he's nervous or excited. He explains that there's one thing which he knows he is, which is ready for the new school year. | Arthur wakes up and asks the audience whether they ever wake up right before their alarm goes off.
