Okay, so we have Little Bill, Andrew, Kiku and Fuchsia on the playground. Kiku is all excited because the bushes are starting to flower. After Little Bill and Andrew joke around with the word "buds" ("Buds-abuds-abuds-abuds-a- budsabudsabudsablblblblblbl!") Fuchsia pretends to be Kiku's mom and they plant fake flowers in the sandbox. Andrew and Little Bill stop by the "garden", do some quick construction work, dig up the "flowers", destroy the garden, and then go off to do something else, leaving Kiku in tears. The little tattletale, Fuchsia, gets Miss Murray. Meanwhile, the boys, feeling guilty about what they've done, decide to surprise Kiku and get her a present. There's a nice big flower already abloom at the very top of a bush, but no matter how high they jump, they just can't reach it. So they decide, "Hey, she likes buds, why not give her some?" So the two little MURDERERS pull about ten or so buds off the bush, and walk over to Kiku with handfuls of immature flowers. Little Bill tells Kiku they got her a present so she won't be mad anymore, then reveal their gift with a big "Ta-daah!" Kiku isn't too thrilled with what Andrew and Little Bill did. In fact, she isn't thrilled at all. She's upset and mad that her buds have been killed. Fuchsia gets the teacher once again, and the four explain what happened. An exasperated Miss Murray walks the kiddies over to the bushes and tells them that the bushes are living things, and that the buds are just baby flowers and need to stay where they are, or they won't grow and bloom. They try to stick the buds they picked back on, but the teacher says there's no way to put them back once they've pulled them off, and that they'll never be flowers. But pretty soon the kids are all friends again, and are happily playing together on the playground. Overall, this is one of the oddest, weirdest episodes ever made.
