Aladdin is sitting at her desk, drawing with a light. Aladdin is sad because she is bored, but she knows that when she goes to lunch she will watch TV. She will watch Disney because it makes her happy. She goes somewhere to watch. She decides that she will watch at home.
Her classmate Parker has a playdate with her, and they watch together. They get dropped off after school by the school bus. They like riding the bus, and they wave when they get off. They are watching unicorn shows and trying to avoid doing their homework. They take a break from TV to eat cake and chicken. They fall asleep . . . what about the homework? DUN-DUN-DUNNN!
