After eating too many donuts, Herky comes down with a comically severe case of the hiccups. And since Brenda is away, the other planes don't quite know what to do. Herky follows various haphazard suggestions such as immersing himself in the lake at Frosty Pines and bobbing through the walls at Echo Canyon. But, all these "remedies" do is further his hiccupping frenzy. In desperation, Jay Jay and Snuffy turn to Old Oscar for help. Oscar tells them they should have come to him, sooner. It is always better to talk to an adult or someone more experienced than you when you need help. With Oscar's help, Herky's hiccups are cured.
