Summary

Arthur and his friends are feeling different, but can't put a finger on it. They eventually realize that they haven't had a holiday in a while, so they embark on making a new one.

Plot

It's wintertime in Elwood City, and time seems to be going by very slowly. Arthur and his friends feel gloomy and they wonder what's wrong. Then they realized what's wrong: there aren't any holidays recently. So everyone is trying to figure out a new holiday.

D.W. wants the holiday to be Pony Day. Grandma Thora recalls the time the grand zepplin flew over Elwood City. Arthur searches on.

Buster's idea is Give Buster Baxter Candy Day, where everybody gives candy to him, and then he gives the rest to all the little children. Francine thinks a holiday should be about relaxing and having fun, so they should have a holiday special. Brain's idea is Igneous Rock Day, because he thinks a holiday should be about something that should last for all time. Binky's idea is to have 24 hours of nonstop fireworks. Muffy doesn't care what the holiday is, she just wants to sell merchandise.

Arthur says that all of their ideas are too commercial, and it's not what a holiday is all about. Afterwards, they realize there is a holiday coming up: Valentine's Day. The episode ends with Arthur finding out that D.W.'s idea, "Pony Day", was published in the newspaper. Binky mentions to Arthur he has a whole year to think of a new holiday.
