The intro begins with [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] singing about things that make you blue, but Arthur stopped him, saying "Stop! Cut, no more!" He annoyingly asks Buster if he was going to tell the viewers. Buster replies it makes a good song. Arthur then announces to the viewers that due to technical difficulties, the show will be cancelled, but Buster stops him, saying "Don't listen to him, he's just embarrassed. Roll the tape, Greg!". Then he tells Arthur it's a good story, to which Arthur groans. | The intro begins with [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] singing about things that make you blue, but [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] stopped him, saying "Stop!

After the title card, [[David Read|Dad]] has a catering job and they need a babysitter. Arthur doesn't want the babysitter to be [[Mrs. Grouse]], because she makes Arthur and [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] dance the jitterbug. D.W. says "The jitterbug is good for your arthur-itis, Arthur." Arthur angrily says he doesn't have arthritis and [[Jane Read|Mom]] states that Mrs. Grouse can't make it so the babysitter is [[ | After the title card, [[David Read|Dad]] has a catering job and they need a babysitter.

When Sally arrives, she is a bear with orange hair and a purple jacket. She is 16, twice Arthur's age and four times D.W.'s age. Sally is about to ask Arthur which ice cream he likes better when he gets annoyed and says "I know the drill." D.W. talks and plays with Sally while Arthur does his homework. When he comes downstairs, he sees Sally playing his ''[[Dark Bunny: Curse of the Mommies]]'' video game. D.W. gives Arthur the console and Arthur and Sally reach Level 12, where they try to defeat the Mommy of all Mommies, when Arthur's parents arrive. Arthur looks at Sally dreamily and develops a crush on Sally. | When Sally arrives, she is a bear with orange hair and a purple jacket. She is 16, twice Arthur's age and four times D.W.'s age.
