"I swear I heard a rumor from some of the kids that Frowny Fox was being bullied.." Catnap told Dogday as they relaxed in their tree. "What do you mean?" he asks as his paws were behind his head as he reclined back with Catnap laying on his grey torso. "Someone or a few kids seemed to be making fun of Frowny Fox, and I think it's affecting him, he seemed to be happy and smiling this morning, but now, he's back to frowning.." said Catnap as he peaks over his shoulder to look at Frowny walking towards Kickin and Hoppy. Dogday was eyeing Frowny Fox as he was seen talking to Hoppy and Kickin but walking away with Hoppy and Kickin looking upset. 'Something's going on' Dogday thinks as he pulls Catnap closer as they watch Frowny Fox a bit more.

Frowny Fox made his way to Crafty watching her do art. "What are you painting?" he asks making her jump a bit. "Oh.. just some flowers, and whatever I see when I look around" she comments showing off her work to Frowny as he admires it. "Woah, that's actually amazing!" he said smiling. "Thank you Frowny" she said smiling back at the fox. The rest of recess was good with Frowny sticking near Craftycorn as she painted and sometimes asked for him to pass her a certain color. "Pass me the blue please, thanks" Frowny hands the blue paint over with a smile "now pass me the red" as Frowny hands over the red Crafty quickly used it up "more red please" she said looking at Frowny "we don't have anymore, we're out" he says as Craftycorn frowns. "Out? We can't be out, you're hiding more red from me, I know you are" she said smiling and waiting patiently for Frowny to hand her the red but he was sure that they were out. "We really are out-" he tried to say as Crafty lunged at him "GIVE IT HERE-" as she did though Frowny stepped back and tripped looking and seeing a big bottle of red paint roll over to Craftycorn's hoof. Craftycorn smiles and picks it up going back to her art, after she used the red paint she stepped back and smiled at her art of red poppy flowers. "Ah, now that's much better" she smiled at Frowny who was on the ground still a bit scared, she held out her hoof and helped him up. "Sorry about that, I know I had another bottle of red paint somewhere, I was just keen on getting my painting done" she said as she took the painting to class with her when the bell rang. Frowny Fox was a bit scared of Craftycorn, but decided to let her go back to the classroom with Bubba.
