==Plot== | ==Plot== | ||
[[Sue Ellen]] and [[Brain]] are assigned to work on a project together (the same assignment as in "[[Arthur Goes Crosswire]]"). They decide to build a model dinosaur. [[Francine]] and [[Buster]] tell Sue Ellen that it will be easy, since Brain does almost all of the work himself. | |||

Sue Ellen constantly wants to help with the project, but Brain doesn't let her because he keeps thinking she'll ruin it and get them both a bad grade. He tries to avoid her so she doesn't interfere with his work. Meanwhile, Buster keeps trying to avoid Francine because he doesn't want to work on their project. | Sue Ellen constantly wants to help with the project, but Brain doesn't let her because he keeps thinking she'll ruin it and get them both a bad grade.

One day, Sue Ellen visits Brain and tells him she'll work on the dinosaur's head. However, he doesn't trust her to do a good job and stays up all night to make his own version anyways.

Brain brings his dinosaur to school, but he and Sue Ellen fight over it and it falls in the mud. He tells Francine about what happened, but she laughs and even admits that she would have ''pushed'' him in the mud, not just let him fall. Brain doesn't understand, but Francine explains that Sue Ellen is right about him being a "report hog". For example, a year earlier he and Francine were doing a project about France - he played Napoleon and made her play France, not even giving her any lines (she just lay on the floor under his boot). Even when they were little, he would fix other kids' finger paintings. She then asks him how he would like it if Sue Ellen treated him the way he treated her.

Brain imagened that he is working on the project but then Sue Ellen came in telling him to go home because he doesn't want him to fiddle with her "precious" A+ and don't trust him. | ||
Brain understands and apologizes to Sue Ellen for not letting her help admits he would also feel bad if nobody trust him working on a report. She tells him that she'll fix it as long as he trusts her. Though Brain is reluctant at first, he smiles and lets her take care of the situation. When the time comes to present their project, Sue Ellen asks Mr. Ratburn to take the class outside. There, she shows their new project - a fossil dig, made out of the model dinosaur's bones in the mud they fell into earlier. She explains that paleontologists dig up sites like this, and tells Brain to show the class the proper way to do it. While he does that, Francine tells Buster that after school they'll finally finish their project. Buster tells her that he'll meet her at her house, but Francine has had enough of his stalling and proceeds to handcuff him to herself so he won't run away anymore. | Brain understands and apologizes to Sue Ellen for not letting her help admits he would also feel bad if nobody trust him working on a report.
