When Ms. Doe and Ms. Mucus leave Acorn Flats for two days, they assign Slinkman to look after the Squirrel Scouts, but the Squirrels are nothing but trouble to him. He keeps going to Scoutmaster Lumpus for help, but doesn't give him any, except advice that Slinkman doesn't think is fair. He ends up taking the advice anyways and becomes mean to the Squirrel Scouts. But in the end, the Squirrels make Slinkman their hero, since he saved them.
