Synopsis

The kids are playing fort in Kip's living room when Fripp tells them to clean up so he can vacuum. The thought of playing outside leads to the idea of camping. It's agreed -- they'll camp outside. Wayne is hesitant, but the thought of seeing a falling star helps him overcome his fear. That night, Fripp is cooking hot dogs as the kids await the first star. Wayne's glasses are accidentially broken, and he can no longer see. Enter the Eye Doctor. He fixes the glasses, and Wayne sees a falling star.
