TITLE CARD
Theres a track race at Lakewood Elementary. It starts with Francine, then Jenna, then Sue Ellen, then finally on to George. When its Georges turn, hes outrunned by his opponent, making his team lose. Francine insults George, saying he gave up, making him mad.
Buster and Arthur are seen at a restaurant, talking about the soccer ball, saying its the exact same ball when Brain examined it. But they wonder how the ball would go all the way to Turkey. Buster gives a long, wrong answer, discouraging Arthur. George arrives at the restaurant, running, which is unusual to Buster, thinking he hated running. George says he needed practice when Arthur offers his water. After drinking, he says he feels bad about losing the race and says hes just slow. They understand, and Buster told him about his uncle walking everywhere, including a journey from Crown City back the Elwood City, amazing George, and saying that it took him seven hours before spraining his ankle and had to stop. George is then encouraged about this and when Arthur says he dosen't know anyone who took the walk since.
Back at school, Francine teases George about the walk, saying it'll tak a gazillion hours! He objects saying it'll take longer via back roads and bikepaths. He then takes out a sponsers sheet. He says hes raising a dollar for every hour he walks for Autism Research. After writing her name down, Francine still taunts him about it, make him extremely furious. Mr. Ratburn also writes down his name, after George shortly tells him about it. He continues to practice and practice while getting more and more sponsers like Binky, Mrs.MacGrady, Brain, and Sue Ellen. Muffy offers as well if he'll carry a Crosswire Motors balloon, advertising the company, making George walk away. Arthur dreams about giving Alberto his gift, but in the night, its runs away again!
On the big day, George sees the weather acting up, since its raining! He drives down to the city hall, when its shiny again, but to his surprise, sees Mr. Ratburn. George says he misunderstood, since he only asked to sponser him, not walk with him. But they just go along with it. As they walk, Mr. Ratburn entertains them with stories and George dosen't want to stop. At the party, Alberto gets a Comic book from Arthur, saying it wasnt the gift. George and the others make it through the forest and keep going. Buster and Bitzi meet him and say that they're two thirds of the way they. George tells him he owes him $8.27, making Buster joke for George to stop now, discouraging him.
Arthur, while eating the birthday cake, is told by Alberto that some kid is walking from Crown City to Elwood City. Arthur realizes its George! Arthur, Alberto, and many other friends like Brain, Sue Ellen, Muffy, and Francine wait at Main Street for his arrival. While hes walking, Mr. Ratburn notices the clock tower, realived that the walks over, before hitting his leg on a tree root, twisting his ankle. George, at that point, stops for the others.
