## Plot

Onion is on the phone with his father. Onion tells that he has great new and his dad is coming for a ski trip. He also says that he can bring a friend. Apple, in a happy taste, thinks about and wants to go. Then, Apple asks Onion how to ski but Onion replies that are only when they get there. After their talk, Apple asks a question and Onion says that he's father is staying for the weekend and Apple must make a valid impression to his father. After they have finished, they clean the house spick and span. Onion's father finally has arrived and greeted his son, Onion. Then, Onion asks his father and meet Apple. A pause occurs until Apple surprises and jumpscares Onion's father and his father got frightened. Onion's father tells him why did he have to do that for, then, his glasses fall off. Apple picks them up but he cannot put back at his eyes. Onion's father, already frustrated and angry, tells him to give it back. He changes the subject to tell Apple that Onion has invited him to come with them on the skiing trip. However, Onion's dad thinks Apple is a poor influence.

Apple tries to make amends with Onion's dad, but to no avail, causing Onion's father to think that Apple truly is a bad person and fooled Onion. This leads to a heated argument between father and son, with Onion backing out from going on the trip. All while this is happening, Apple watches in guilt, thinking that he really is rotten.

Later, Onion's father was going out of town when he suddenly bumps into Chicken Nugget. He scold Chicken Nugget, calling him and the whole city dumb (although, Chicken Nugget didn't know what dimwitted meant..). It gets so bad that when Onion's father saw the apples a stand was selling, he flew into a rage and attacked the stand, getting him jailed.

During his time in prison, he discovers that Apple chose to take his place in the big house as an apology. This led to Onion's dad understanding that he is a good apple. So, he pays Nugget to let them go. Back at Apple and Onion's house, the dad and son couple reconcile, with Apple being allowed on the trip.

Unfortunately, Apple's experience doesn't go as planned, as he follows the tripping he mistook as directions from Onion and gets hurt in an explosion. Onion's dad and Onion are worried and disappointed at the same time.
