Calvin's school puts on a play about food and nutrition. Calvin gets the part of an onion with a single line, which he struggles to memorize.
Tropes
- Clingy Costume: Calvin gets his shirt stuck in the zipper for his onion costume when he tries to take it off due to a Potty Emergency. They ended up having to cancel the play and find the janitor just to get him out.
- Never Heard That One Before: Calvin asks what Susie is, and Susie says she's 'fat'. Calvin clarifies that he meant in the play, and Susie makes it clear that she's heard that crack more than enough already, slugging Calvin.
- One-Line Anxiety: Calvin's role as an onion has a single line, which he struggles to memorize. He ends up nailing it for the actual play...while in the bathroom with a stuck zipper.
- Playing a Tree: Played with, since every role in the school play is as either an anthropomorphic food or compound.
- School Play: Calvin's school puts one on, with all the kids dressed up as foods or compounds.
