An obese boy is the new kid at school and also the butt of jokes. He takes it in stride but is really hurt by it. Nancy sees this as an opportunity to use her feminine charms to get him to bully the others. The schoolchildren go too far with the jokes and he decides not to return to school. After seeing what Nancy was trying to do, they decide to give her a taste of her own medicine. Feeling bad about what they’ve done, the schoolchildren apologize for their cruelty. The truth is that they do like him, but sometimes kids will be kids.
