| ==Summary==
| |
| While they're on their way to celebrate Arthur's parents' 10th wedding anniversary, the Reads' van breaks down, stranding the whole family. Arthur and D.W. end up locked in a diner storeroom, where they hear the inspiring radio tale of Crooning Cowboy Kid Carter and his little-sister sidekick.
| |
| ==Plot==
| |
| [[Nigel Ratburn|Mr. Ratburn]] shows a film about perspective and then assigns the class an essay about it. [[Arthur Read|Arthur]] and [[Buster Baxter|Buster]] are disappointed to have homework on the weekend of the big Bionic Bunny / Dark Bunny special (in which all will be revealed), but vow to complete it before the start of the special. Arthur, however, struggles with the assignment. [[David Read|Mr.]] and [[Jane Read|Mrs.]] Read are celebrating their tenth anniversary at a fancy restaurant. They're dropping Arthur off for Buster's sleepover and D.W. at [[Grandma Thora]]'s. But car troubles leave everyone stranded. Things seemingly go from bad to worse when Arthur and D.W. get locked in a storage room in an old diner. They're disappointed, and a bit scared, but find inspiration in an old radio drama called "[[Kid Carter and his Sidekick Mistral]]."
