Introduction

Mr. Read is searching a pile of letters.

Mr. Read: Has anybody seen my keys? He lifts a couch cushion and finds a Mary Moo Cow doll.

D.W.: You found my Mary Moo Cow! Thanks, Dad. She grabs the doll and runs away.

Mrs. Read: Now, where did I put that tax file? Mr. Read finds a chew toy under the couch. He throws it to Pal. Mrs. Read opens a cupboard. The keys are inside.

Mr. Read: My keys! Mrs. Read hands him the keys and they kiss. Arthur searches his backpack.

Arthur: I know I put my new Bionic Bunny comic in my backpack. He empties his backpack on the floor. Several things fall out, including a stack of files. What's this?

Mrs. Read: Oh, I've been looking everywhere for that! Thank you, Arthur. She takes the files. Arthur sniffs at a half eaten sandwich that was in his backpack.

Arthur: (sniffs) Eew! Yuck! Pal comes in. Arthur throws him the sandwich. Have you ever noticed how when you're looking for one thing, you often find something else instead? Pal brings a comic book. My comic! Thanks, boy!

Arthur: I don't wanna look like a fool on TV.

D.W.: You can't trick the cameras, Arthur!
