Later, in D.W.'s room at the Reads' house, D.W. is talking to James about coming up with a better response than "Uhh..." when the Tibbles ask him a question.

The next day at preschool, James tells Tommy and Timmy that he doesn't want to go to their sleepover. This makes the Tibbles very upset, because they say that no one ever wants to have a sleepover with them. Tommy and Timmy start blaming each other for it, and start wrestling with each other until James says that they can work it out. When they head back inside the preschool, D.W. and Emily ask James how the conversation went, and James says, "Not so well", and excuses himself for a drink of water because his throat is dry.

The next day, James is unusually quiet at preschool, which concerns D.W. and Emily. They ask James if he wants to go to the zoo that Saturday, but he says maybe, if he is around.

Summary[edit]
The Tibble Twins have a sleepover and James is the target of their shenanigans.[1]
Plot[edit]
D.W. and the other preschoolers are playing outside. Suddenly, a storm comes in, and everyone starts to head back inside the preschool. D.W. says to the viewers, "Everyone knows what it means when the wind changes direction. It's when THEY come, looking for a new victim." D.W. is referring to Tommy and Timmy Tibble, who proceed to ask James if he wants to come to their sleepover after everyone else runs back inside the preschool. James is unsure, and says, "Uhh...".
After the title card, Arthur and Buster drop off D.W. at James' house, and are seen walking down the street. Inside his bedroom, James is fretting about having a sleepover at the Tibbles'. Emily, who is also visiting, states that no one has ever gone to a sleepover at the Tibbles' house before, and wonders what it would be like. This causes James to have a fantasy about what he thinks a sleepover at the Tibbles' house would be like. In his fantasy, he imagines Tommy and Timmy letting him sleep in their basement on a bed of nails, giving him pond scum to drink and mud pies for snacks, and Timmy inventing a dangerous-looking new toy called the "Flatter-fling". When James comes back to reality, he is scared of going to the sleepover. He asks D.W. and Emily to help him get out of it.
The next day at preschool, the Tibbles are burying toys in the sandbox outside. James is going to tell them that he doesn't want to go to the sleepover, but he can't bring himself to lie about it. When Tommy and Timmy see James talking to himself, they ask James who he is talking to, to which James responds, "Uhh...".
Later, in D.W.'s room at the Reads' house, D.W. is talking to James about coming up with a better response than "Uhh..." when the Tibbles ask him a question. James explains to D.W. that he tried to lie, but couldn't. Arthur then says to D.W. that the Tibbles have come over, which shocks James. He decides to hide in D.W.'s closet while the Tibbles are in D.W.'s room. After the Tibbles leave, James asks D.W. if he can stay in her room for the rest of his life.
The next day at preschool, James tells Tommy and Timmy that he doesn't want to go to their sleepover. This makes the Tibbles very upset, because they say that no one ever wants to have a sleepover with them. Tommy and Timmy start blaming each other for it, and start wrestling with each other until James says that they can work it out. When they head back inside the preschool, D.W. and Emily ask James how the conversation went, and James says, "Not so well", and excuses himself for a drink of water because his throat is dry. D.W. and Emily look at each other nervously.
The next day, James is unusually quiet at preschool, which concerns D.W. and Emily. They ask James if he wants to go to the zoo that Saturday, but he says maybe, if he is around. They ask why, and their question is answered when Grandma Tibble, Tommy, and Timmy come over to pick James up for the sleepover.
The next Monday at preschool, D.W. and Emily are surprised that they hadn't seen or heard from James that weekend. When Ms. Morgan says that James won't be at preschool that day, D.W. and Emily fear that James didn't survive the Tibbles' sleepover and died, and decide to give flowers to his mom after preschool.
