* [ Arthur theme song] *
- Muffy: Well, what have you been up to lately?
- Francine: Well, playing games with my family mostly.
[Francine chuckles] We have this one game
where I kick a soccer ball off the balcony
and my dad tries to catch it in a wheelbarrow.
- Wow!
That sounds so... so...
- Fun! I know.
[Muffy sighs loudly]
- I wish this virus thing was over.
I'm getting so bored.
- Ed Crosswire: Hello, Francine.
Muffy, ready for our trip to Crossfire Motors,
where prices can't be beat?
- Be right there, Daddy.
I have to go.
Today is a humongous sales event.
- That's right, and my Muffykins
is the best sales event decorator
In Elwood City.
Oh, that reminds me,
now where did I leave those special...?
- Okay, just need to grab my purse and I'm ready.
- Do you have your mask?
You're gonna wear a mask, right?
- Only sick people need masks, Francine,
and I am not sick.
- What?!
- Although, I did stub my toe in the pool,
I have this little bruise which you can see when I wear sandals.
- Earth to Muffy, Earth to Muffy!
If you're going out in public,
you 100% need a mask.
- But why?
I'm not sick
and I don't like how they look.
- First of all, you can be sick and not know it.
You can have the virus and feel totally fine.
Second, without a mask, you can spread it
to someone who will get really sick
like Buster, who has asthma,
or Mrs. MacGrady, who had cancer,
or your grandparents,
or someone you don't even know.
- But shouldn't they wear the masks?
- Of course, but it doesn't help
if you're sick and you don't wear one.
The only way to keep everyone safe
is to wear a mask.
- But they make my nose sweaty!
- If we all are to our part, we can get rid of this virus.
- And they fog up my sunglasses!
- Just think of all the people who look up to you.
Your fans!
- You're right.
I am such a role model,
Daddy, I'm going to need a mask before we go out.
Could you possibly locate some sort of--
- I took the liberty of having some made,
hand-dyed, and embroidered.
Only the finest for you, Muffin.
- Ooh!
Très chic.
How do I look?
- Like a kind and thoughtful person
who cares about other people.
- Great, but seriously,
how do I look?
- Perfect!
