Summary
D.W. boasts about her skills at ice skating for an upcoming ice skating party, but becomes worried that her friends will find out that she is giving false information and cannot skate well.
Plot
Arthur starts the introduction by saying "Wouldn't it be great if you only had to do something a few times to be really good at it?" He goes on pretending that he is a master golfer, fluent in French, and great at art without ever practicing. "But life just isn't like that," he says, "unless you're D.W." The scene then changes to show D.W. bossing Emily around for criticizing her artwork. "What do you mean my drawing doesn't look like a cat? It's perfect! Everything I do is perfect!" she yells.
During recess at Elwood City Preschool , DW and James are making a snowman (James is doing all the work while DW's telling him what to do). Emily's handing out invitations to her midwinter-party that's coming up on Saturday--Emily tells DW and James (who each receive an invitation) that it's going to be an ice skating party. Timmy and Tommy Tibble also each get an invitation to the party, and they're excited about ice skating since they already play ice hockey. When the twins offer to teach some of their moves to DW, she declines, claiming that she's got moves of her own--DW claims that she's been ice skating since she was three and boasts that she's probably the best ice skater in the entire preschool. After the Tibbles leave (smashing James and DW's snowman with their sled) and Emily goes to finish handing out the rest of the invitations to her party, James laments that he'll be the only kid at the party who won't be able to ice skate. Feeling bad for him, DW offers to give James private lessons before the party on Saturday.
Later that day, when Arthur finally gets home from school and is taking off his jacket, hat and gloves, DW (sliding around on the floor without her shoes on) slams into her brother. Though DW tries scolding her brother for nut being more cautious at the "ice rink," Arthur scolds his sister for what she's doing, pointing out that their house isn't an ice rink and notes that she could get hurt if she continues what she's doing now. DW explains to Arthur that she's going to be giving James a private ice skating lesson the next day and that she's practicing now due to being "a little rusty" when it comes ice skating. Arthur points out to his sister that she's only ever gone ice skating three other times in her life and reminds her of what happened the last time they went ice skating: DW was so sore after the last time they went ice skating that she ended up eating dinner standing up. DW doesn't see the big deal about this and argues that she's a natural when it comes to ice skating.

As she's sleeping that night, DW dreams about showing up the Tibble Twins at Emily's ice skating party while defending James from them and being the best ice skater at the party.
The next day, DW meets James at the rink for their private lesson.
