On Tuesday evening Arthur does his homework. He sat at his desk staring at the other math problems he hasn't done yet, and at the bowl of microwaved soup his mom brought him, only ate a single spoonful of it. He thought about how Buster doesn't want to stay here with him, and would rather leave to stay with his dad.
At this point, nothing interesting happens. Not in this room at least.
In D.W. and Kate's room, where D.W. is lying on her stomach of her bed doing her homework of writing down numbers. But she kept having use her Mary Moo Cow eraser from the many mistakes, taking away the color and shape of it. Before she could cause anymore damage to it, she takes the eraser off of the pencil and places it on her night stand. She opens her bedroom door and runs downstairs to ask mom for another pencil, leaving the door open.
Pal walks D.W. as he walks up the stairs to the room and talk to Baby Kate.
Pal: Just came back from talking to Amigo.
Kate: Did Treenie come back from the imaginary world?
Pal: She was, Amigo says that Treenie had looked everywhere Nadine could possibly be. But there hasn't been any such luck. She's back at the imaginary world to meet Uncle Wormy after his support group meeting.
Kate: What kind of support meeting?
Pal: I think Amigo mentioned that it was for imaginary friends who lost their real friends. The Tibble twins had recently disowned him.
Kate: Poor Uncle Wormy. Is he okay?
Pal: I'm not sure. But at least he is not lost. However, Nadine is currently missing in action.
Kate: I know. I have a feeling she's not taking a vacation at fairyland this time. Something terrible must have happened to her.
Pal: Like what? Kidnapped by the Tibbles?
Kate: You know other kids can't see other kids imaginary friends.
Pal: Oh yeah. I had forgotten about that.
Kate: Even if it was possible, I think it's much worse than that.
Pal: What are you implying?
Kate: (worried) ...
Pal: Spill it out, Kate. If its terrible, I doubt it would be true.
Kate: Well...my theory is that D.W. has forgotten about Nadine.
Pal: If that is true, hopefully D.W. will remember again.
Kate: That's not the kind of forgotten I'm implying. I'm saying that D.W. has forgotten about Nadine...permanently.
Pal: *gasp* You don't say.
Kate: I am. I don't have much evidence, except that D.W. doesn't seem that worried about her.
Pal: She wasn't that worried when Nadine went missing last time. We shouldn't worry too much about things we don't know could be true yet.
Kate: I know. I wish I could do something, instead of sitting in this crib all day.
Pal: I know. Too bad we can't go to the imaginary world.
Kate: I wonder if there is a way.
Pal: What kind of way?
Kate: I'm not sure. But I have to ask Treenie if there's a way. When will she be back?
Pal: I'm not sure. Amigo didn't say.
Kate: I wish there is a imaginary friend nearby we can talk to.
Pal: I have an idea. Why don't you imagine an imaginary friend. And she can help us.
Kate: I'm not sure if I am old enough to have one yet.
Pal: It's worth a try.
Kate: Okay. I'll try.
Kate closes her eyes, and places her hands on her head.
Pink and blue sparkles magically appear and descend to the ground making a bright white shape made out of light appear. The bright white shape takes the form of female human, with the animal characteristic of a dog (like Fern). She looks around D.W.'s age. The imaginary friend has blonde, in the style of a bob, and wears a yellow night gown. And just like Nadine, she doesn't wear any shoes.
Blewy-sagwa: Hello, you must be Kate. Nice to meet you.
Pal: That was so cool. Can you do it again?
Blewy-sagwa: Sorry, I can only be imagined once.
Kate: Blewy-sagwa, we need-
Pal: That's her name? You could have came up with something better.
Kate: I don't know that many names. Most of them have been taken. I decided to use the word I invented during the summer. And since I didn't come with a meaning for it, I decided it could be a name.
Blewy-sagwa: It's such a lovely name, Kate. What were you trying to say?
Kate: We need your help with something. We need to figure out a way to get to the imaginary world.
Blewy-sagwa: It's not possible for a human to travel there. Or anyone of any species that is real.
Kate: There has to be a way.
Blewy-sagwa: I'm sorry, it just can't be done.
Kate: Wait! I imagined you. You came from my imagination.
Blewy-sagwa: That would be correct.
Kate: Then that means that I can imagine a version of myself. So can Pal.
Blewy-sagwa: Perhaps you can. But I don't want to break any rules.
Kate: What rules?
Blewy-sagwa: Between the imaginary world and the real world.
Kate: How do you know any rules? You just got here.
Blewy-sagwa: I just know them.
Kate: How?
Blewy-sagwa: Because...that's how things work.
Kate: You are not allowed say why you know?
Blewy-sagwa: ...
Pal: Let me handle this Kate. Pardon me Blewy, but we have an important mission that involves Kate's older sister's imaginary friend, Nadine. She has gone missing for over a week, and we need answers and we need to find her.
Blewy-sagwa: It's dangerous to tell you anything you don't know that I know.
Pal: If it so dangerous, maybe you can tell us everything in our dreams. As in when we fall asleep. That kind of dreaming.
Kate: I doubt it's possible to dream the same dream.
Pal: We won't know for sure, because Blewy here won't tell us a thing. And if she is your loyal imaginary friend, then she will at least help you out. And also help another imaginary friend in need. And if it is possible to dream the same dream, then Blewy will enter the dream and tell us everything we need to know.
Kate stares at Blewy-sagwa who looks worried about something.
Kate: Blewy-sagwa, you may leave.
Blewy-sagwa: Are you mad at me?
Kate: No. I will call you back when ever I need you again.
Blewy-sagwa smiles and disappears the same way she appeared, but in reverse.
Pal: That Blewy character was no help to us at all.
Kate: Its not her fault, Pal. She has to follow the rules.
Pal: She could easily break one of them, and no one will know.
Kate: Maybe someone would know. I think I figured it out.
Pal: About what?
Kate: I haven't figured out that much. But enough to know that Blewy-sagwa is afraid of what happened to Nadine will happen to her.
Pal: And what was that?
Kate: That Nadine said something that D.W. shouldn't have known.
