Horrid Henry, Time Manager

==Synopsis==
Henry is not the only one worried by Dad's 'brilliant' new idea to make the most of the day.
==Plot==
The episode starts with Henry still sleeping in bed while his clock rings and shows 7 am. Mum then comes into his room and yells at him to wake up. Everyone is going to be late for school and work, so they have to hurry up. Henry quickly fills his bowl with Sweet Tweets to start eating, but Peter tells on him. Mum tells Henry off, but she sees that he was half-dressed. She tells him to get changed since the family's leaving in two minutes. Henry and Peter fight over the bowl, but it flies and lands on Dad's head. Everything has to stop, but Dad has an idea. Time management. It means that they do everything in a strict timetable. Peter says it's just like school, but Henry screams, 'Noooo!!!', opening the title card.
Although Henry protests, Mum thinks it sounds like a very good idea, but it was the boss' idea. Dad's imagination shows Big Bob with a stopwatch, and everyone, at the same time, types, drinks, types, and shows their reports to Bob. They'll start their time management tomorrow. Then they're back to what they started. Mum sees Henry picking up Sweet Tweets crumbs on the table and tells him to hurry up. However, Peter complains that he hasn't had breakfast.
The next morning, Henry is sleeping when his alarm clock rings and shows 7 am. Dad opens the door and blows his whistle, so Henry can get up. It's time for time management. Dad gives everyone their timetables. Everything has a set time: eating breakfast - five minutes, clearing the table - two minutes, going to the toilet - half a minute, and so on. Henry asks Dad about important stuff, and it's all on the sheet. Watching TV is five minutes after supper. Peter complains Happy Hippos is longer than five minutes, and Henry asks about the programs he wants to watch. Dad tells them they've wasted one minute of breakfast time arguing. Henry and Peter fill their bowls with Sweet Tweets, while Mum eats her toast and drinks her tea quickly. Henry gulps his Sweet Tweets and tells Dad he's finished. He asks if he can put the other four minutes watching TV, but Dad tells him that 5 - 2 = 3, so it's three minutes, not four. He tells Henry that he's got extra time to brush teeth instead of using that time to watch TV. Dad takes Mum's mug when she hasn't even finished drinking.
At that time, they're all ready to leave for school. Dad sets a countdown for ten seconds. After Mum and Peter hurried downstairs, Henry made it but with his jeans down, his shoelaces undone, and his backpack half-on, as he didn't have time to fix everything. Henry and Peter are walking, while Dad is driving in a car with a megaphone. He tells them to go faster to push it to the limit. They've saved eight minutes. However, they are the only ones in the playground.
At home, Peter is watching Happy Hippos, while Henry wanted to watch Gross Class Zero. However, Dad blows the whistle, turns off the TV and tells them it's bedtime. Henry complains it's only half past seven, but Dad tells them they've got an early start in the morning. Peter excitedly says they do need an early night and Henry calls him ‘Worm’. That night, Dad told Mum who was reading her book that his idea would worked perfectly and this will be their normal routine in a few weeks time as he climbs into bed next to her and switches off the light saying that reading time is seven and a half minutes and on her timetable.
Meanwhile, Henry comes into Peter's room and talks to him about the timetable situation because the boys made it to school before all the teachers. Henry asked Peter if he liked having five minutes to watch TV and he says that he did miss Happy Hippos and did not have time to draw a picture for Miss Lovely making him understand. Henry says that they do not have any time for anything else but Peter asked what they were going to do about it since Dad says it’s good for them. Unfortunately, Henry had a plan and moves the arrows on Peter's bunny clock changing the time.
It was still nighttime and Peter's alarm clock rings waking Mum and Dad. They came into the kitchen at five o' clock in the morning where Henry explained to them that the time management was a brilliant idea but suggest that they are not doing it properly and gives them timetables. First off, 5:05 morning run which it is now. Mum and Dad starting running down the block followed by Peter as Henry holds a stopwatch while on his skateboard, holding onto a leash showing Hoppy the dog running along too and says one more lap and Mum asked if they could rest but Peter was enjoying it and Henry rides on a skateboard holding onto Hoppy on a leash doing the running as Dad was sweating while being all out of breath as Henry zooms past him saying 'no time to lose'. 
Later They were all back in the kitchen again with Henry and Peter presenting Mum and Dad an All-In-One Breakfast mixed together which saves time and they eat it up. Henry times the parents coming down the stairs and reads two minutes twenty. Dad says he will be too early for work since it is only 5:45 so Henry suggest he walks because he and Peter said it's good for him and the environment too even though Dad said it’s miles. Mum thinks he will also save up all the petrol as well. Dad ended up walking to work as Henry tells him it will be quicker if he ran faster. 
Mum and Dad were watching TV but then Henry comes in the living room and turns it off to remind them it's 7:08 which means homework. Henry points to the bills Dad was supposed to finish on the computer and he told Mum to write the thank you letter for Great Aunt Greta too so they both go to the dining room and got to work while Peter draws a picture of Miss Lovely in his room and Henry watches TV in the meantime. Finally, Mum and Dad were asleep together in bed and Peter finally finished his picture also sleeping too as Henry reads his comic in his own bed telling the audience that there is plenty time to get everything done when managing your time properly.
The next morning, The family overslept with Henry being half-dressed again as he reads the timetable but Dad takes it then throws it and the stopwatch in the bin declaring no more time management and tells everyone that they should all return back to the same old routine like they always do at the beginning. The family carried on what they always do which is worrying about being late, Henry pours so much sweet tweets into his bowl, winks to the audience while eating his breakfast as Peter takes the cereal box and pours some into his own bowl ending the episode.
