Plot

The intro starts with Arthur looking for his scrapbook. Then D.W. shows up and tells Arthur it's time to read to her. Then D.W. notices the viewers and asks them if they read Hopalong the Frog. Arthur tells her to go bug Mom and Dad. After D.W. leaves, Arthur finds his scrapbook and shows the viewers pictures of him with Pal and the President. He also showed them one picture of his new friend and remembers that day.

After the title card, Arthur gets a letter from the mailman saying his new friend is coming. So he decides to give a party. Buster suggests a space-themed party, Muffy suggests a medieval-themed party, and Brain suggests a day with his new friend. Arthur starts to worry about his decisions on what to do. Then his friends show up and get ready for the party. Then Arthur's new friend shows up, and D.W. takes a picture.

We shift back to the opening scene and Arthur thanks his new friend for a good time. Then D.W. comes and plays a song by Mary Moo Cow, and the show ends with Arthur chasing D.W.
