## Plot

It is once again another nice day in the house. While on the countertop, Cavis is doing some research with a weather machine while Bob is pretending that he is a samurai warrior, wielding a spoon like a sword, before Cavis tells him to be quieter. Cavis then tells Millward that the machine he has will accurately predict the weather and once they find out what the weather will be, they'll be more prepared in advance for it, while Millward becomes surprised from seeing a cloud in the sky, the cloud looking like a frog. This causes Millward to start talking non-stop about the frog cloud that he spotted in the sky, but Cavis tells him that she's busy and that he has to finish his notes, but Millward accidentally breaks the machine while he was laying on top of it, before he asks if the cloud frog was a cloud tadpole first. Jimmy and Jerry then walk by while Jimmy tells Jerry, "Okay, Sally, fine, we can try making cookies again, but don't burn them this time! You gotta watch the timer like a hawk!" After Jimmy hops off after saying this, Jerry then screeches like a hawk, before he hops off after Jimmy. Cavis then asks Millward what the frog cloud's name was, before he starts giving off a list of possible names, which annoys Cavis, even while the two brush their teeth. Later, Cavis notices that the room is quiet, so he decides that she can finally read his book in peace, until Millward drops in literally and yells, "Ribbit!", surprising Cavis so much that he throws his book into the air as it lands in the fireplace while the fire is still burning.

Meanwhile, at Jimmy and Jerry's house, the oven starts smoking while the smoke alarm is beeping, as Jimmy rushes over to take the cookies out of the oven, but the cookies are now burned as Jerry shows up and says, "Smoky", while Jimmy can only glare at Jerry while growling angrily. This time, Cavis and Millward are now strolling through town while Millward is now riding his bike and now talking about if the frog cloud had any friends, such as a cloud bird or a cloud llama. Unfortunately, Millward is so distracted by these thoughts that while Lucy is out taking Snoopy on a walk, Millward turns into the leash which acts as a slingshot, sending Millward backwards, and also causing Snoopy to get flung around and knock Lucy to the ground, before Milward then runs into Cavis, as the two crash into the fountain afterwards. Jimmy is watching TV, when Jerry comes into the room while carrying a plate of cookies, which Jimmy is elated to hear, but his elation suddenly comes to an end when he sees that the cookies are burnt again before he angrily tells Jerry that he's a cookie waster and walks off after that, while Jerry picks up one of the cookies and says "Ungrateful", before he eats the cookie, even in spite of it being burnt, as he coughs out some smoke. Back at Cavis and Millward's home, Millward is still rambling on about what the cloud frog's name is, which prompts Cavis to go on a walk by himself in the night while angrily muttering about why Millward doesn't think more like he does, while Jimmy is also talking a walk while he too angrily mutters about Jerry just speaking only five words at a time. At that moment, while Cavis and Jimmy pass each other, they both yell at the same time, "I just want a different roommate!" The two then become surprised when they realize that they have the same problem, with Jimmy stating that Jerry is too wacky and only has two-word sentences, "Me hungry. Me full. Blah!", while Cavis starts mocking Millward's obsession with the frog cloud. Cavis then tells Jimmy that there has to be a solution to their problem, but Jimmy has nothing, but just when Jimmy and Millward are about to leave, the two come up with an idea, which is that they'll trade roommates, which Jimmy agrees with.

Cavis has packed up his stuff in a suitcase, before telling Millward, who is reading his comic book, that Jerry will be his new roommate. Meanwhile, Jimmy has also packed up a suitcase for Jerry, including throwing an ice cream cone into the suitcase. When Sally questions about this, Jimmy tells Jerry that he'll be living with Millward, and when Jerry asks "Ice cream?", Jimmy tells him that the ice cream is all for him, which Jerry is convinced by as she also leaves as well. Cavis and Jerry both pass each other, while telling each other to have fun. After Cavis meets up with Jimmy, Cavis asks him what book he has, with Jimmy answering that he has "War and Peace", while Cavis has "Of Rice and Men". Jerry also meets up with Millward, who then greets his, before Jerry asks, "What do we do first?" Later, Millward and Jerry are both sitting on the toaster while giggling rather giddily, before the toaster then goes off, propelling the two into the air. Next, the duo then have a marshmallow fight, throwing marshmallows at each other. Millward then throws a marshmallow that nails Jerry squarely in the mouth, knocking his backwards, but he gets back up while eating the marshmallow before he yells, "Marshmallow!" Meanwhile, Cavis and Jimmy are reading their books, before they both decide to trade books with each other. This time, Millward and Jerry are now pretending to be samurai warriors while standing right in the middle of the sink, before the two then start sword-fighting with each other, using spoons as swords. Jerry lunges forward, but Millward quickly dodges before he kicks Jerry from behind, knocking him into the sink, but when Millward jumps up in celebration, he loses his balance and falls into the sink as well.

Cavis and Jimmy are still reading together, while the two start laughing together. Later, the duo have made a large two-layer cake, and when Cavis asks Jimmy who the cake is for, Jimmy then tosses two ice cream cones into the air. After the ice cream cones land on top of the cake, Jimmy answers, "Our stomachs", before he and Cavis once again share another laugh together. This time, Millward and Jerry are both riding on a sardine and a lobster, respectively, until they both crash into each other. Millward then jumps back onto the sardine and zooms off before Jerry also jumps back onto the lobster and zooms off as well. This time, Cavis and Jimmy are both eating french fries, chicken McNuggets, and drinking sodas, with Cavis (trying to start a conversation) telling Jimmy that he had a great day and that it's nice to converse with someone, but Jimmy rudely interrupts by shushing him, telling him that he's eating right now (as he is more interested in eating than anything else in that moment). Cavis tries again in repeating him statement twice, but Jimmy keeps on shushing him, before telling him to eat and drink, before Jimmy then scarfs down his french fry in one bite, obviously more interested in filling his belly, as stated previously. After that, Jimmy says that the french fry was great, before asking Cavis what he was saying, but when Cavis once again tries to repeat his statement, Jimmy interrupts him again (this time not by shushing), telling him that they should take a break, or more accurately, a donut-five. When Cavis asks what a donut-five is, Jimmy answers that "it's a break where you eat five donuts in five seconds". Of course, Cavis then says that he doesn't really like donuts, which Jimmy is both shocked and horrified to hear. After a few seconds of silence, Cavis and Jimmy both start to miss Millward and Jerry, while Jimmy starts wondering if they made a mistake and if they should switch back. Jiimy is then sidetracked when he eyes Cavis's french fry before he scarfs down Cavis's french fry in one bite, while Cavis then says that he has a plan.

Later, Millward and Jerry are both walking across the counter, while Millward tells Jerry that it was nice of Cavis and Jimmy to invite them to their place to watch a Plantasaurus marathon on TV. Once the duo approach the place and after Millward knocks on the door, Cavis answers it before grabbing both Millward and Jerry and pulling them inside. Once inside, Millward thanks Cavis and Jerry for inviting him and Jerry over, while Cavis answers that it was no problem, saying that he can't wait to watch "Plantasaurus VS. Shark", before asking Millward what he thinks will happen, before he says that he hears that the Shark has cool ninja moves. Cavis then starts doing his own ninja moves, which surprises Millward, while Jimmy tells Jerry to take a seat, before asking him if he can offer him anything like "Popcorn? Soda? A donut? Ten donuts? Thirty donuts?", which Jerry is also surprised by. Millward then tells Jerry that Cavis and Jimmy are acting too nice, while Jerry quips "Such-picious", before Linus tells her that he means "suspicious", before agreeing with Sally that Mimi and Charlie Brown are acting suspicious, before he tells Jerry to let him come up with an excuse for them to leave. Millward then tells Cavis and Jimmy that he and Jerry would love to stay, but they have their own plans as well, which Cavis and Jimmy are surprised to hear, before Millward tells them that he and Jerry have to go cloud-hunting (though Jerry insists on 'make cookies') before the two then leave after that. Cavis and Jimmy are both frustrated that their plan didn't work, while Jimmy laments that they really messed up, before he quickly snarfs down a cookie that fell on the floor.

After Millward and Jerry have returned home, Millward quips that that was weird, which Jerry agrees with, before Millward says that it's time to go cloud-hunting, but Jerry still wants to make cookies. Millward can only watch as Jerry goes off to the kitchen, while Millward starts to remember all the fun times he and Cavis had together looking for clouds, before he starts to sing about how Cavis is his best friend, while Cavis likewise also starts singing about how Millward is his best friend. The two then sing that through thick and thin, they'll always be "very best friends", even in spite of their flaws and their differences. After the song ends, Jerry has made himself a sandwich, which he then scarfs down in one bite, while Millward is still depressed about missing Cavis. Seconds later, Cavis then enters the house and greets Millward, which Millward is happy to see as he runs up to Cavis, who then asks Millward if he wants to go weather-measuring with him. Millward thinks about this, before Cavis tells him that Proverbs 17:17 says, "A friend loves at all times", before telling Linus that now is one of those "all times", while Millward is still thinking about it. Cavis then tells Millward that they can look for frog clouds and that he can even name them, which Millward is excited to hear, before he rushes off then comes back with a miniature weather device and says, "Ribbit!", before he and Cavis both laugh together. In the final scene, Jerry has also decided to return home to Jimmy, while still feeling unsure if his own brother wants him back or not. Jimmy then opens his mouth and smiles, revealing that he has cookies for teeth. Jerry then tells Jimmy that he wants "cookie teeth" too, which Jimmy obliges to by tossing a few cookies into Jerry mouth, so that Jerry can have cookies for teeth too, before they start laughing, happy to be back together again as the episode irises out.
