## Plot

Parker and Russell were playing basketball, and Angus slams the door open and asks where his beanie is. Parker asks if Angus checked everywhere, even the toilet (most of the time his stuff gets lost there). Parker tells Angus that they will check everywhere in the ship, even if it means turning it upside down. The ship turns upside down, but still the beanie isn't found. Parker asks why Angus needs the beanie, and Angus explains that it is the Shackleton Lucky Beanie, which was passed down by his father: Angus R. Shackleton Jr. He explains that he delivered packages from there to everywhere, all because of his beanie. The beanie is created with the following:

* Crafted by his giant sausage hands.
* The toughest fibers on earth, his beard.
* Strongest material at that time: his own toenail.
* Sweat and tears of someone smart: himself.

Angus Jr. gave the lucky beanie to Angus, and said to him: "Son, **ONLY A BIG FAT BABY WILL EVER BE SO DAFT TO LOSE THIS BEANIE!**" Angus cries because he lost the beanie, and Parker says that Angus wouldn't forget to deliver the mail, because he did it a million times. A montage goes on about Angus forgetting to deliver the mail and do it the wrong way.

The gang is at the Middlemost Toast, where Angus acts like a baby. Parker and Russell decides to make the same beanie (one just as close as the original one), while Ms. Pam decides to babysit Angus.

Parker goes through the three main ingredients, and gets ready to find the ingredients. Parker has a plan to get the beard from an old geezer, and decides to impersonate as a beard shaving cream, with Russell as the barber. Parker got the beard stuck to his back, which disgusted him. Ms. Pam is shown playing with Angus, but Angus escapes and stays near the fire, runs through the counter table, and poops his pants, which chases away all the customers. Parker appears at the restaurant, and says that they got the beard, and only two more to go, and goes away. Ms. Pam looks at Angus, but his pants are only seen.

Parker and Russell decides to get the sweat and tears of a smart person, which was why they put Lily on treadmill. 8 hours after exercising, Lily finally sweats one sweat. Ms. Pam is shown bathing Angus, which was very hard. Parker is seen to make Lily cry, and tricks Lily into crying one tear. Ms. Pam is shown feeding Angus, with Angus not wanting to eat, so Pam decides to make Angus nap. Parker and Russell decides to find one large toenail, so they go through each person's foot. Parker finds the perfect pair: Russell's tooth.

Parker is shown making a beanie, with Russell sleeping by the fireplace (Montage Mode). Ms. Pam naps Angus, but Angus would only sleep if Pam read him a bedtime story, so she decides to read her childhood history. Parker appears at the restaurant, with Angus' new beanie (not the original). Angus puts the new beanie happily, only for his face to melt off.

However, it turns out that Angus was day-dreaming all along, and that Angus' beanie was in the toilet, where it was found by Russell, who brought it to him. Angus puts the beanie on, and the gang decides to deliver the mail.

## Trivia

* The walk Russell does at the end of the episode when returning Angus' beanie resembles the one done by Pluto of Disney fame.
* This episode is similar to the series Spongebob Squarepants Baby Squidward.
