With towels as capes, Daniel and Miss Elaina go outside to play. Mom Tiger finds them playing with the towels and informs them that the towels -- now dirty -- were needed for bathtime later tonight. Thinking about the fact that his mom will now have to wash the towels, Daniel and Miss Elaina take the towels back inside. Daniel and his dad take Miss Elaina to the music shop where Miss Elaina's dad is frustrated as he tries to repair a trombone. Daniel and Miss Elaina think about his feelings and try to help by playing some music for him to enjoy. Daniel make-believes that he is playing music that creates all kinds of feelings. Back at his house, Daniel helps his mom calm Margaret by singing her a quiet lullaby. Strategy
