after the title card, everyone was at Prunella's 9th and a half birthday party while Francine told Arthur about that while walking to her backyard for the party. everyone has gives gifts for her 9th and a half birthday, Binky gives Prunella a Half Baseball, Francine gives half of a Licorice and Busters gives her a half of a Candy Bar in which he ate half of it.
then Prunella's older sister Rubella told everyone to gather around and perceive her cootie catcher, and she told them that it was created and handed down from her ancestors in the Transylvania Mountains and it has the power to tell fortunes and was given to a special girl on her half birthday, Francine ask if she can have a slice of half birthday cake but Rubella dare to Francine to ask her fortune. soon Francine's fortune was would she play professional football; Prunella tells Francine to pick a color and a number. so she picks green and three, then Prunella tells her to pick another number; so she picks the number six. and the answer says yes. but Francine tells her that they'll have to wait when there all grown up if it was right.
Buster ask Prunella if he'll ever get an A on the geography test but everyone laughed at it, but Arthur tells Buster that he'll never gets A's. so Buster picks Blue and the number 2 and 5, then it reads "It is Certain!"; even though Buster doesn't get A's in his Alphabet Soup.

Cameos
Trivia
- At the end, Prunella discarded the cootie catcher because she and her friends don't need to use it anymore, although Prunella still uses the cootie catcher occasionally in later seasons.
- Although Prunella is the central character, the title card used the one where Francine hits the gong that was mainly used for episodes where Francine was the central character. The title card where Prunella is gazing into the crystal ball for fortunes wasn't created until Season 4, although the use of the title card for this episode is likely because of the fact that Francine has one of the major roles here besides the central Prunella.
Errors
- At Prunella's 9 1/2 birthday party, D.W. was shown four times in the crowd; but in other shots there, she actually wasn't at the party.
- The cootie catcher's colors are not properly aligned.
- During Francine's turn for a fortune, after she picked green, the number 3 was not an option (although she picked it), and then the number 6 (she picked that number) was with the odd numbers in place of the number 1, although 6 is an even number.
- When Arthur, Francine, and Muffy go to Prunella's house for another fortune, Francine knocked on the door and was ahead of the two; but later in that scene, she is standing behind them.
- Also in that scene with Arthur, Francine, and Muffy at the front door of Prunella's house, the car on the street had its headlights on, but later on its headlights are off, although there was nobody in that car.
- A cootie catcher that has been mangled in the washing machine would be unusable.
- Out of all the people who attended Prunella's 9 1/2 birthday party, Buster was the only one dressed formally besides party host Prunella, while everyone else who attended were dressed casually. This might be because half-birthdays are not as important as actual birthdays.
- In the final scenes, Francine was wearing a blue shirt with the number 2 on it; but after she and the others go inside Arthur's house to watch Turtles, Turtles, Turtles, she is wearing her usual red shirt.
