Lu

Wednesday morning, Lu helps his mother make another fruit sculpture. On Wednesdays, Christina runs a “Hump Day” special, which means she will only make and deliver fruit sculptures in the shape of a camel. Christina sends Lu to deliver a rare Hump Day special sculpture, ordered by Patty’s mom Bev Jones for Skunk, who has been helping the family.

Lu arrives at Skunk and Cotton’s house to deliver the sculpture. When he arrives, Skunk calls for Cotton to come outside. Feeling awkward, Lu shares a piece of his tangerine with her. This results in Patty teasing Lu at practice that afternoon, again saying that Lu has a crush on Cotton.

Ready to practice hurdles again, this time with his contact lenses, Lu approaches Coach, who is on a phone call with his wife. Lu notices that Coach looks concerned, and he explains that his newborn son’s allergies are acting up. Lu and Coach set up the hurdles and Lu begins practicing using the counting method coach developed, but again he finds himself unable to successfully hurdle. Coach instructs Lu to take out his contacts. Coach reminds Lu to lead with the knee and follow the counting pattern, and Lu successfully jumps all the hurdles.
