There's been a kids' party in the house but all that's left is one solitary balloon. Suspended from the bottom of the balloon is a basket full of cellophane wrapped candy. It's a race and a struggle as to whether Erky and Perky or Mad Margaret get to it first. Just as it appears Erky and Perky have won the day the balloon comes free and is caught in the breeze. It flies out of the window and eventually takes them all the way back to – Hotdog Stand. Home at last! But they've brought a nasty surprise with them.
