Introduction
''Various insects are crawling on the floor when a slice of pizza nearly falls on them. ''

Insects: (shriek)

Arthur, Buster, Francine, Muffy and Brain are sitting at a table in the cafeteria.

Buster: Oops! Buster picks the pizza slice of the floor and takes a bite.   What? ''Everybody looks horrified and points at the pizza. '' Ah, don't worry. It's fine. Five second rule. I never eat anything after it's been on the floor more than five seconds. He takes another bite.    Or... is it the ten second rule? I forget. ''He picks a bit of cheese of the floor and eats it. Arthur faces the camera.''

Arthur: Do any of you have a friend like this? A friend who's just a little... sloppy?

''Flashback: In the boys’ room Alex and George are washing their hands. A toilet flushes. Buster comes out of a cubicle and goes straight to the door.''

Buster: See you in class!

''Flashback: Arthur leans against a tree on the playground and counts. The other kids hide.''

Arthur: One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten! Ready or not, here I come! ''He starts searching. Buster peeps out of a trashcan with flies buzzing around him.''

Buster: (chuckles)

Flashback: Buster sits on the side of the bathtub reading a comic book and splashing in the water with one hand.

Bitzi Baxter: Buster, are you taking your bath?

Buster: Just finishing, Mom! He pulls the plug and walks out.

The flashbacks end.

Arthur: What do you do? Do you tell them?

Buster: A-a-a-tchoo! He sneezes in Muffy and Francine’s direction.

Francine+Muffy: Eew!

Brain: Buster!

Arthur: Buster! I mean, don't you have to tell them?
