Anyway, I didn't mean to dominate the conversation
by going on and on for ten minutes,
but that's what happening with the Fredster.
Hey, buddy. When did you get here?
-Are you serious? -Oh, hey, what's up, Fred?
I just got done telling you what's up.
Sorry, it's not you.
We got sucked into this new game, "Bubble Wrap Pop."
It's like popping real Bubble Wrap, just without the exercise.
-Sold! Let me try. -You wanna get popped?
Has anyone told you you're not very good at sharing?
Please. I'm great at sharing.
I will bite you!
Anyway, as I was saying,
I'm stressing out, 'cause Neve's birthday is coming up,
and I have no idea what to get her.
Relationships, am I right? [laughs]
So, what would you guys want if you could have anything?
An army of robotic sharks, two dragons,
and the fries I ordered ten minutes ago!
Well, I'd go with the power to fly,
so I could fight crime under the name "Captain Feathers."
Ooh! Or "The Pheasant."
Well, my budget is $15, so you've both been zero help.
Cooper, I need a favor.
My a cappella group has a gig this weekend.
And I just found out that Malcolm is sick.
And you want me to heal him?
Sounds like a job for "The Pheasant."
What? No.
Stop that.
I heard you sing this morning, and I was hoping that you could fill in for him?
We practice every day after school,
and then the big performance is this Saturday at--
Wait for it--
...Victor's Pizzeria! [laughs]
Wow, that was so not worth waiting for.
You'd really be helping me out. So, will you do it?
Uh...
I mean, heh. The thing is... heh.
-Uh... -I'll take that as a yes.
-Fine. Fine. -Thank you. You are going to love it.
Wednesday is-- Wait for it--
Oh, just say it.
It's kooky T-shirt day!
Fasten your seat belt, baby bro.
Things are about to get cray-cray.
Coop, I thought we were gonna spend this week
building the stunt for the next Would You Wrather:
"The Wheel of Ollie"?
[sighs] Why am I so bad at coming up with fake excuses?
Don't worry. I'll figure out a way to get you out of this.

Hello, Dimples McPretty. [shrieks]
Hi, Fred.
FYI, I prefer "Mrs. Wrather."
Jenna, what are you doing here?
I live here. Same question back at ya.
I invited Neve over to give her her birthday present.
And you're doing it at our house because...?
Jenna, you know your soft lighting shows off my chiseled jawline.
Ah, I do know.
Look what I got her.
I took photos of Neve and me and mashed 'em together.
I call it "Freve."
Gah!
You don't like it?
It's not that I don't like it. It's just--
Dah!
Hey, Fred. I'm a yellow belt now.
That means I fear nothing.
[screaming]
Oh, man. You guys don't like it.
It's a horrible present, isn't it?
-[doorbell rings] -Neve's here. What am I gonna do?
-Aah! -I'll give you kids some privacy.
-Neve, hey, you made it. -Yep.
I can't believe you put up all those signs for me to follow.
"Best birthday present ever-- this way!"
I can't believe I did that, either.
And you hid it at Cooper's house,
which is really weird, but I'm gonna let that go.
So, can I see my gift?
Of course, m'lady. It's right over... here.
Oh. An ugly old lamp?
Uh, but wait. There's more. Um, this book.
A child's dictionary? "Property of Ollie Wrather?"
Dreams do come true. Yay! [chuckles]
Uh, Fred, I don't think Neve has followed your clues correctly.
Huh?
Fred set up a little puzzle here
-to help lead you to your real gift. -He did?
-I did? -You did!
Take this beautiful antique lamp
and shine it on this dictionary...
-[highlighter squeaks] -...and what word is highlighted?
"Party!"
Fred is throwing you a super-awesome party down at the rink this weekend.
Fred, that is so sweet!
[chuckles] And not just any party.
The greatest birthday party in the history of--
-Okay, that's enough.
Thanks, Fred. You're awesome. I'm gonna go tell everyone. Bye!
[door closes]
[sighs] Thanks, Jenna. You really saved me.
But I've never thrown a party before.
Which is why I'm gonna help you.
You just need to do one little thing for me first.
Please get this out of my house.
Mm-hmm.
This thing is heavy. Are you pushing?
-[Ollie] Yes and no. -What does that mean?
No.
That was a good practice, but I feel like you need to come in earlier
on that part where Deb and I go,

♪ I'm soaring past the waves on the ocean ♪
[both harmonizing] ♪ Just trying to fly ♪
-There it is. That sounded good. -So now do I get my kooky shirt?
Before Wednesday?
Looks like the group just got its first bad boy. [chuckles]
Let's practice some more. I'm gonna go grab some water.
Coop.
I figured out a way to get you out of a cappella.
-What is that? -It's medieval dental headgear.
You can't sing if your jaw's wired shut.
-I am not putting this thing on. -Not without my drill, you're not.
[whirring loudly]
Look, I'm actually gonna stay in the group and help out Charlotte.
-It's kind of fun. -It's kind of fun?
[Cami and Ollie laughing]
I do not know why we're laughing.
I'm serious. I thought it'd be boring, but I really like it.
-Cooper, you ready for more? -Let's do it.
Oh, and don't forget what the opera singer said to his bicycle tire.
"Please don't B-flat."
-[Charlotte and Ollie laughing] -I'm so confused.
-Wait, Cooper can't go sing with you now. -Why not?
Um, do you see that? That is the Wheel of Ollie.
And that's important because...?
Because we made plans today
to paint Would You Wrather questions on it,
and then strap our little brother to it, so we can spin him like a top.
I've been told I may vomit.
Cooper, our performance is Saturday.
Can't you work on that thing another time?
Um, yeah, I guess I could. What do you think?
Yeah, I think it's great that you're choosing singing with Charlotte
over this thing we've been talking about for months.
Great. Look at us working it all out.
All right. Let's go inside.
Uh, wait.
[Ollie grunts] This is not as fun as it looks!

[sighs] Cooper is late yet again, unbelievable.
Spin me.
All to sing at a pizza place, like what we're doing here isn't important!
Spin me!
If he keeps blowing this off,
we're never gonna have the Wheel of Ollie ready
for the next Would You Wrather?
Spin me, woman!
Uh, where have you been?
You were supposed to have him home an hour ago.
Practice ran late. Sorry, Mom. [chuckles]
Okay, well, this is now leading into my time,
so thanks for dropping by. Take care, now.
[sighs]
All right. Finally. We have a lot of work to do.
Sorry about being late. This wheel is looking sick!
Go on. You know you want to.
Do it!
First, let's brainstorm cool Would You Wrathers for him to land on.
How do you guys feel about mustard shampoo?
[Cooper] Awesome! Count me in. [chuckles]
All right, Coop. There's the enthusiasm I've been wanting to see.
-What? -Hmm?
Oh. My bad.
Charlotte was asking if we should coordinate outfits. [chuckles]
You're video chatting right now?
Cami, this isn't some sub shop!
We're performing at Victor's Pizzeria! It's the big show!
Oh! Well in that case...
-[phone beeps off] -Can we just focus on this
without any more talk about Charlotte or a capella?
Yes, you're right. I'm sorry.
All right. Would You Wrather ideas. Let's go.
[phone bloops]
What? She's picking out top hats? That's madness!
Sharing's fun!
Wee-eee-eee!
Jenna!
I searched every inch of the house looking for you.
You did?
Okay. I may have stood in the living room and yelled,
"Jenna! Jenna! Jenna! Jenna! Jenna, Jenn--"
Okay, Fred. I got it.
Anyway, I've been thinking about decorations for Neve's party,
and I got nothing.
You saw the "Freve" poster. I'm a mess.
You need to relax.
Neve isn't gonna like you because you throw her the fanciest party.
-She's gonna like you because-- -Of my beefcake arms?
Sure. And also because you're you.
All Neve wants for her birthday is a fun night,
and that's what you're gonna give her.
That sounds great, but how?
By using all this stuff in the garage.
Mr. Wrather used to throw me the best birthday parties.
Wow! A karaoke machine? This is awesome.
That was for my 25th.
We actually met on my birthday in college,
and every year after that,
he would surprise me with some crazy, fun party.
-A snow-cone maker? A smoke machine? -[chuckles]
-This guy knew what he was doing. -He sure did.
Jenna, this stuff is gonna make Neve's party.
Wow. I'd forgotten about half the things in here.
A disco ball? Score! What birthday was this for?
Oh. Well...
It's still new in the box. It's never been opened.
Yep. We...
never got a chance to use that one.
I'm sorry, Jenna.
But I can think of no better time to break that ball out
than for Neve's big party.
Let's get this stuff down to the rink, shall we?
