"D.W. and Dr. Whosit" is the second half of the third episode in the twenty-third season of Arthur.
Synopsis
D.W. is determined to watch a new television show after her parents tell her she's too young to watch.
Plot
Watching D.W. make pancakes incorrectly (adding ketchup, egg shells, and too much flower), Arthur imagines a world where everyone could do whatever they wanted at any age. He shows Bud as an accountant, the Tibble twins as surgeons, and Kate as a pilot. As D.W. shows her gross pancakes to Arthur, he asks the viewers, "See what I mean?"
Arthur and Buster are shooting hoops in Arthur's driveway while discussing a TV show called Doctor Whosit. As D.W. approaches them, they both make hand gestures and say, "Egad! The doctor has flibbered!" D.W. is confused, and Arthur explains that it is a line from Doctor Whosit, and that she is too young to watch the show.
David and D.W. go for a walk, where D.W. observes both Binky and people at the ice cream store all making the same gestures and saying the same line as Arthur and Buster. When D.W. mentions Doctor Whosit, David says that he should start watching it with Jane. D.W. wants to watch it with her, but David thinks she is too young to watch.
On the playground, Bud tells D.W. that he has heard the Doctor Whosit catchphrase as well, but that it is an "inside joke." Timmy Tibble then shows up, claiming he knows what it means. D.W. pays the Tibbles her muffin as they whisper something in her ears.
In the Read house, Arthur and Buster are at the table drinking green liquid and discussing Doctor Whosit. D.W. tries to talk to them about it, but Arthur and Buster are confused, and D.W. realizes that the Tibbles lied to her.
At night, D.W. hears the television going and gets out of bed. David and Jane are excitedly watching the TV when D.W. tries to watch with them. David pauses the TV and takes her back to bed, explaining that she can watch when she's older. D.W. then overhears David say that he has been recording the show.
The next morning, D.W. tries to watch Doctor Whosit, with a lock screen showing instead. She wakes up Arthur and he explains that they have enabled parental controls to prevent her from watching the show.
Jane notices the parental controls block on the TV. D.W. then tries to play a game where she guesses her "favorite four-letter word." Jane can tell that D.W. is after the password and declines.
D.W. spies on David using his computer and finds out that all of the family passwords are written down in a book. In the garden, she asks Bud for help on a sneaky mission to watch Doctor Whosit.
In the hallway, Bud complains that he us so hungry. David offers to make Bud a snack and Bud offers to help. Meanwhile, D.W. sneaks into the living room and takes the book. In the kitchen, David and Bud make guacamole and add pomegranate. In the living room, D.W. finds the TV password: R-E-A-D.
Bud then spills the pomegranate seeds, and he and D.W. run into the living room to watch Doctor Whosit. However, as they watch the show, they start to find it boring. When David catches them, Bud runs off and D.W. is caught.
At the dinner table, David is still angry over what D.W. did and punishes her with no TV for a week, explaining that they put the parental controls on for her safety. D.W. apologizes, and Arthur points out that "sometimes you have to wait until you're older to do certain things." David then thinks that Arthur is too young for Doctor Whosit, as D.W. cheers.
