Horrid Henry's Household Chores

==Synopsis==
Chores, chores, chores - what bores, bores, bores, but they must be done if Henry wants to hang out at Ralph's house, so he sets about them with his usual inventiveness. However, he soon discovers that more haste certainly does mean less speed.
==Plot==
The episode starts with Perfect Peter sleeping while Henry sneakily comes in. While Henry was changing the time by one hour backward, Peter said, 'Don't be horrid, Henry' to him. Henry then puts the clock back and goes downstairs. He turns the volume to maximum, turns off the TV and goes back upstairs.
When the alarm goes off in Peter's room, he decides to watch TV. However, the music from the TV wakes everyone up. Henry said to Mum and Dad that it sounds like Daffy and her Dancing Daisies. When they realize that Peter was downstairs, they both run downstairs to take him back upstairs.
When Henry's clock says 7:00, Henry runs downstairs to watch TV, only for Mum to say no TV until he's done all his chores. Henry screams 'Noooo!!!', opening the title card.
Mum tells him to do his chores now, and Henry asks if he can still go to Ralph's today, Mum says maybe, after he does his chores. Henry is excited, because Mum said 'we'll see' and 'we'll see' always means 'yes'. Henry then glares at Peter, who is humming as he dusts. he says he loves doing his chores, and Henry calls him a worm. Mum tells Henry to start, and that he needs to clean out Fang. 
Henry goes to his room and tries to clean out Fang's cage while carrying gloves but his hamster growls at him so he tubes a tube inside and Fang rips it apart. So Henry tries sweet talking and singing to Fang then opens his cage as he crawling to him but then Peter comes to his room carrying Fluffy and asked what he doing and he says nothing to him. Fluffy and Fang freaks out seeing each other and charges to one another while chasing around Henry and Peter as they try to calm them down. Henry grabs his Mutant Max toy and puts on the floor stopping Fang then picks him up as Peter comforts Fluffy when Mum comes in and asked what was going on in here. 
Peter told Mum that Fang's been horrid to Fluffy but Henry denied saying it's not true at all. Fang roars at Fluffy making her faint and Mum tells Henry to put his hamster away because it's not playtime for them but sees his room a mess than ususal. She asked Henry to empty the bins and cleans his room later then leaves with Peter and Fluffy. Henry puts Fang back in his cage and tells the audience that when he's king, only parents will do the chores with prisonballs attached to their legs not the children. 
After that fantasy, Henry drags the bin out of his room and empties it on the pile of rubbish as Peter comes and sees him taking out bins in every room. Peter told Henry that Mum didn't meant to take out all the bins like that and he is going to tell on him. Depiste, Henry telling him he doesn't have to, Peter runs down anyway. After calling his brother 'Worm', Henry pushes all the rubbish into Peter's room then shuts the door as Mum comes up with Peter seeing all the bin emptied. Henry asked her if he could go to Ralph's now but Mum says they just started and tells him to help Dad wash the family car outside then he groans in dismay. 
Henry was scrubbing the car's windshield as Dad sprays it the hose with water. Then Mum tells Dad there is a phone call for him so he runs inside before telling Henry to do the windows but he says it will take forever. So Henry opens the car door but then he wines the windows down telling the audience that he can't do them if they're not there and puts the sponge in the bucket. He then shuts the door, picks up the hose, puts two sponges on his shoes to speed things up a bit for Dad. Henry turns on the hose making him slide while spraying water on the car getting it all wet but then he spins around too much and gets tied up as Peter comes out and Henry sprays him with water. Peter cries and goes to tell on him again as Henry gets unties himself and Dad asked what he is doing but Henry says he just cleaned the care and asked to go to Ralph's now. Dad says 'No!' and tells him that Mum wants him upstairs now then shuts the house window and Henry groans again. 
Mum gives Henry the basket of dirty laundry to take down to the basement but Henry says his arms are aching and will drop off. Mum tells Henry not to be ridiculous and remember to separate the colors from the whites. Henry carries the basket downstairs but bumps into Peter who was wiping the staircase and reaches the basement. Henry loads the laundry in the washing machine when Peter comes down and reminded him that Mum wants the colors to be separated from the whites but Henry asked what he was going to do about it and Peter runs off to tell Mum but Henry didn't care about the colors and turns on the temperature. Mum asked Henry if he did what she said and he said 'YES all sorted' but then Mum tells him to tidy his room now and Henry moans 'THIS IS TORTURE!'. Henry tells Mum that he really wants to go to Ralph's house but she says 'Not until his room is finished’ and he claims he did three chores so far and calls himself 'Mum's slave'. 
Mum tells Henry to pick up his sock from the floor which is where he keeps them and Peter bring a hoover inside his room telling him to use it but Henry transforms in a wasp and flies after him around then catches him with his nose. Mum shouts 'Don't Be Horrid, Henry!' making Henry put Peter down and turns back to human again. Mum plugs in the hoover and tells Henry to get started but he knows what she was going to say next, so he decides to interrupt his mother by saying, “I know, I know!” and then Mum leaves with Peter. Henry picks up his clothes as he asked the audience why parents make kids tidy their rooms knowing it will just get untidy again and that he can't save time leaving it as it is. Henry claims he hates picking socks so he hoovers around the floor when his sock gets sucked in which pleases him and gets all his socks inside but then Peter sees what he's done and goes to tell Mum on him much to his dismay. 
Henry then takes out his dirty, grey/black socks from the bag but when he looks through it, so much dirty get all over making him covered in black and he gets dusted by Peter making him growl in anger. Later, Mum has baked a chocolate cake in the kitchen as Henry comes in and she sees him a mess then asked what happened. Henry told her that he finished all his chores (bins emptied, car cleaned up, putting the washing on, tidied his room and picked his socks from the floor) and once begs Mum to let him go to Ralph's now and she says 'Alright' then tells him to get change while she hangs out the laundry. Henry cheers and licks some chocolate frosting saying 'Life is sweet' to the audience. 
Meanwhile, Dad sees the car all shiny but when he opens the door, water comes out splashing him. He gets all wet and yells 'HENRY!'. Next Mum goes to the basement to get the laundry out of the washing machine but when she opens it, all the laundry are all pink and shouts 'HENRY!'. Then Peter goes to his room and opens the door but then he sees all the garbage in front of him and it collapses on him. He cries 'MUM!'. 
Mum drives Henry to Ralph's which was exactly what he wanted to do but Henry says 'Not like this'. Mum scoffs and calms Henry down by telling him that Ralph won't mind what he wears and parks out his house as he gets out of the car in his pink clothes then she drives off and Ralph peers through his window waving at him. Henry shouts 'IT'S NOT FAIR!' ending the episode.
