A new school year has started at Royal Prep, but it's not going so well for Desmond. The Majestic Hall teacher, Mr. P, has strange methods that Desmond doesn't understand, and he finds himself struggling with the assignment of getting his mystery plant to grow fruit. He's too embarrassed to ask for help, so he tries to take a shortcut, which causes chaos.
Tropes
- An Aesop: It's okay to ask for help when you really need it.
- Stopped Reading Too Soon: Desmond uses Enchanted Gardening on his mystery plant, causing it to turn into a tree monster. He and Sofia find on the last page of the chapter that this is what happens when you use Enchanted Gardening on a mystery plant.
