Creator/LMMontgomery shows Xavier that if he feels lonely when his friends aren't around, his imagination can keep him company.

!!This episode includes examples of:
* AnAesop:
-->'''Maud''': When you're feeling lonely, your imagination can keep you company.
* HatesBeingAlone: Much like in "I Am Fred Rogers," Xavier can't stand the idea of being alone, and just thinking about it almost makes him go crazy.
* ImaginaryFriend: Maud has imaginary friends who live in the "fairy world" named Katie and Lucy.
* MiddleNameBasis: Lucy Maud prefers to be called by her middle name, Maud.
* MsImagination: Maud has a huge imagination, pretending that the trees are her friends. The entire episode is about how your imagination can keep you company when you are lonely.
* ShoutOut: At the end of the episode, the kids state that Lucy Maud Montgomery went on to write ''Literature/AnneOfGreenGables'', and Dr. Zoom is shown sporting Anne's iconic red braids and straw hat.
* ShownTheirWork: Lucy Maud Montgomery really did have imaginary friends who lived in a fairy world behind a bookcase. She even recites a real poem she wrote:
--> "Around the poplar and the spruce, The fir and maple stood; But the old tree that I loved best, Grew in the Haunted wood."
