Paradise Lost

As Baby Kate begins to talk, she loses her understanding of Pal, so they seek the Dolly Llama for the solution.

Tropes for this episode include:

  • Baffled by Own Biology: Kate starts wondering why she occasionally has trouble speaking in Animal Talk. Amigo explains that's normal for a one-year-old, and that all babies eventually lose the ability to speak to animals.
  • There Is No Cure: Kate and Pal are devastated to find out that as they get older, they will understand each other less and less until Kate eventually forgets she could even talk to Pal. When they seek advice to reverse or at least stop the process before it gets worse, they're told it is irreversible since Kate is growing up and there's nothing they can do about it. However, they feel better when they talk to Grandma Thora's dog Killer, who assures them they don't need to have full conversations to communicate, and just a few words, barks and body language are enough to let each other know what the other is trying to say and how they feel.

The Pride of Lakewood

Arthur and his classmates form the Lakewood Pride Committee to give students a way to show pride for the school, but Brain and Sue Ellen accuse the group of brainwashing and peer pressure to get students to do what they want.
