A Girl And Her X is a different sort of trope where the work revolves around the relationship between the two and they usually form a bond with the "X" that "changes them forever, usually starting them down the path to adulthood."

Peg is stuck in a tree and Cat has no idea where she is. He even has to do the theme song without her. After the theme song, Peg complains to the viewers and says that her situation is a big problem, which wakes a sleeping Cat. He goes to look for the problem but doesn't see any problems, so he falls back asleep. He begins to scat-sing in his sleep and Peg sings along, complaining about being up a tree and talking about how she misses Cat. After the song, she decides to entertain herself with a yo-yo, which she accidentally bonks Cat on the head with. He finally knows where she is and promises to help Peg get down. He can't remember how he saved Peg, but he decides that he's independent enough to think of his own solution. Seeing as it was Peg who got him out of the tree the previous two times, he decides to think like Peg. He remembers that Peg writes with a "twiggy thing" but he doesn't have one, so he picks up a flower to write with. He sneezes and it breaks, forming a ladder shape. Upon seeing a ladybug walk up the "ladder", he is inspired to make a real ladder to bring Peg down.
He finds a rake and some skis for the sides, and then bumps onto a wheel, which knocks over some sticks that he decides to use as the rungs. When he gets back, Cat does not know how to put them together, but decides that he could tie them together when he sees Peg's yo-yo string. He asks a little boy in a bear costume for his jump rope, but the boy says no until Cat pretends to cry, upon which he gives him the rope.
Cat then ties the ladder together but does such a bad job that Peg doesn't even know it's a ladder. He tries to demonstrate but it falls down and they both end up stuck. Ramone, who is mowing the lawn, arrives and asks why Peg and Cat are in a tree, but they lie for some reason and claim to be sightseeing. Ramone points to the ladder and asks what it is, so Cat explains. Ramone points out that the ladder's rungs aren't horizontal and its sides aren't vertical. He also explains the meanings of those words and that they need to be that way for it to work. Peg asks Ramone to fix it, which he does, but he climbs up and it falls over, leaving all three of them stuck. Peg ''and'' Cat totally freak out and Ramone freaks out a little bit. Peg then decides to count backwards and Cat decides to act more like himself. Then, Peg sees Cat's tail moving up and down, which inspires her to use her yo-yo to get the ladder. It works, and they get down. Ramone leaves and Peg and Cat sing about teamwork.
!! This episode provides examples of
* AmazingTechnicolorWildlife: Cat is "purply and blue", a blue-striped bird appears, and a yellow squirrel appears.
* BorrowedCatchphrase: Cat says the phrases "you genius" and "totally freaking out", which are usually Peg's lines.
* BreakingTheFourthWall: Peg talks to the audience at the beginning.
* CatchPhrase: Peg says, "big problem", "totally freaking out", and "you amazing cat".
* CatUpATree: When Cat climbs his "ladder", he gets stuck as well.

* CrocodileTears: Cat gets the jump rope off the boy by pretending to cry.
* ADogNamedDog: A cat named "Cat".
* FriendshipSong: The ending song is about Peg and Cat working as a team.
* FunnyAnimal: Downplayed for Cat, who walks on two legs and speaks, but also sleeps a lot and in a catlike position. Also downplayed for the squirrel, who walks on two legs and speaks but acts like a squirrel. It's unknown where the worm falls on the SlidingScaleOfAnthropomorphism because it showers, can talk, and freaks out when seen in the shower (possibly implying that it usually wears clothes) but it also lives under a rock.

* SpecialEditionTitle: Downplayed. Peg is missing from the intro, but it isn't really that special since [[CouchGag the intro changes every episode anyway]].
* TalkingAnimal: The ladybug can talk but otherwise acts like a ladybug.
* TotallyRadical: Downplayed. The phrase "totally freaking out" is the only jive phrase said in this episode.
* UndyingLoyalty: This episode, like the previous "tree problem" episodes, highlights the fact that Peg and Cat never give up on each other.
* VariationsOnAThemeSong: In this episode's ThemeTune, Cat sings all of Peg's lines as well as his own. The offscreen voices also sing the "Ten? Yeah!" part instead of Cat.
