Mister Rogers arrives with a leaky bucket which he takes to the kitchen to show how it leaks water -- the bucket belongs to Audrey Roth and Mister Rogers has offered to repair it. Using some basic soldering skills, Mister Rogers plugs the hole in the bucket. As he does so, he talks about taking shop classes in school. Mister Rogers then shows the difference between a metal bucket and a platic bucket before singing It's You I Like.

Taking a trip to Bob Trow's shop, viewers see a wooden bucket being made.

Back at the house, Mister Rogers checks his recently-repaired bucket and finds that it is now holding water. Calling Bob Trow's shop, Mister Rogers finds that Audrey Roth is planning to stop by. While he waits, viewers visit the Neighborhood of Make-Believe.

In the Neighborhood of Make-Believe, Lady Elaine Fairchilde is jumping right into her Hurry Up Syrup business. At the castle, King Friday declares that there will be a potato harvest festival at Someplace Else on Friday hosted by Donkey Hodie and Harriett Elizabeth Cow. At the festival, Chef Brockett's waffles will be served with Lady Elaine's syrup.

Back at the house, Audrey Roth stops by and is happy to find that her metal bucket has been repaired.
