| The episode begins with a fantasy in which the kids are visitors at an art gallery. [[Buster Baxter|Buster]], as a French detective, bursts in and reveals that a painting is a forgery created by [[George Lundgren|Le George]]. His copies are indistinguishable from the originals, except Le George always spills some of his lunch on them. Buster arrests Le George, remarking that Le George could not avoid being himself.

| <center>'''George Scraps his Sculpture'''</center>
| |
| | |
| George is chosen to represent the class at the County Art Show. A few days before the event, he still has not come up with anything.
| |
| | |
| [[Muffy Crosswire|Muffy]] suggests doing something like Rodin’s ''The Thinker''. George creates thinking moose, but does not like it.
| |
| | |
| [[Francine Frensky|Francine]] suggests a kinetic sculpture like one from [[Arthur Ganson]]. George makes one and nearly gets hit by it.
| |
| | |
| [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] shows George the Lincoln Memorial and [[Binky Barnes|Binky]] a statue of a ballet dancer.
| |
| | |
| After listening to Binky and Muffy quarrel over food, George complains to [[Carl Gould|Carl]] that everyone has a different taste. In order to please everyone, he has created a sculpture out of scraps that he does not understand himself. Carl likes it, although it does not look like a train.
| |
| | |
| George and Carl put the sculpture down on the curb, where it is picked up by a recycling truck. George follows the truck to the city dump where he meets [[Oliver Frensky|Mr. Frensky]] and [[Kevin Blythe Sampson|Kevin Sampson]], who is collecting material for his art. George recovers his sculpture, but it falls apart, so Kevin shows him the dump, where George is inspired by some old stuff.
| |
| | |
| George takes some materials home, but still has no idea what to do with him.
| |
| | |
| Resigned, George is about to use a gift certificate for art supplies that Muffy gave him, but then he sees a sign advertising a Kevin Sampson gallery. He goes inside and sees many sculptures made of trash. Kevin tells George, that he likes to imagine himself as a little bird flying over his creations to see them better. He also tells George that he should just be himself, since that is what his friends are counting on.
| |
| | |
| George has an idea. He asks [[Mr. Morris]] for the trash from [[Nigel Ratburn|Mr. Ratburn]]’s class and builds something out of it. He uses Kevin Sampson’s bird trick to examine it.
| |
| | |
| At the art fair, George presents a train which is made of trash that was used by his friends, e.g. wrapping paper from a gift Francine gave to Muffy for [[Nemo|cat]]-sitting. George’s friends applaud. [[Wally]] says that the sculpture is not his cup of tea and George tells him that he is entitled to his own opinion.
