Eh? What's that, Liam? Whatcha got there?

This? I found it while cleaning. It's a pocket watch... That's what Mama told me...

Ooh, it's so cool! Lemme see!

Nuh-uh! This is mine! My special treasure!

C'mon, just a li'l looky? Pleease? I just wanna see!

Cut it out, Nat! Ah!

Umm... Oops...

Ugh...

Whaaah! You stupid stupid-head! I'm never playin' with you again!

Oh no... Liam's real mad at me.

But I didn't do it on purpose! It's all Liam's fault for not showing me it!

I saw the whole thing, Nat.

Agh!

Don't you "agh" me.

It was your fault, and you know it. So go apologize.

......

We'll come with you. So go apologize and make up.

But... I broke Liam's treasure. He's not gonna forgive me.

Then how's about we try and fix the watch for him?

Ah! Aldo! Do you know how to fix this watch?

Aldo

Watch? What watch? What are you talking about?

Well, you see...

Aldo

Ah, so you want to make up with Liam? Sure, I'll help you out.

You will?! Thanks!

Aldo

So I just need to fix this pocket watch? Can you give me a little time?

Sure thing! I'll be waiting right here!

Hello, Nat. I tried to fix up Liam's pocket watch for you. How's this?

Ooh, it's perfect! You fixed it good and proper! You're amazing, Aldo!

I'm gonna bring this to Liam and tell him I'm sorry!

Aldo

Good. I'm sure he'll want to make up with you.

Thanks!

Is it really gonna be okay? I'm kinda worried.

You are? Then let's go watch. See if they make up.

You too, Aldo! Come on!

Aldo

Huh? Me?

Oh!

It's all my fault your treasure got broken...

Here... I got Aldo to fix it. Take it.

I-I...I'd miss playin' with you if you don't wanna play no more... So please forgive me...

Tag!

Huh?

You're it! Find me before the next bell rings or you've gotta do all my chores tomorrow!

Okay!

Aldo!

Aldo

Huh? You knew I was here?

Well, yeah! I'm a pro at hide 'n' seek! Me an' Liam're always playin' it!

We made up 'cause of you. Thanks, Aldo!

Liam! Ready or not, here I come!

Aldo

Looks like there was no need to worry.

Yeah. I was super nervous... But I'm so glad they made up. Right, Verdi?

Huh? Oh, right...

Yeah, real glad. They're the best of friends, I hate to see 'em fight.

Thanks, Aldo! C'mon, let's go play!

Yeah, let's go!

Aldo

They really are so close with each other.
