When Cork and Fuzz agree to babysit a young porcupine, Cork ends up doing most of the work, and when Fuzz gets into some trouble, it is up to both Cork and the baby to come to his assistance.
As best friends Cork, a muskrat, and Fuzz, a possum, try to catch a mysterious floating yellow object, Fuzz eagerly keeps taking action while Cork cautions him to wait a moment first.
Having an argument over different cleaning priorities, neat-and-tidy muskrat Cork and nap-loving possum Fuzz eventually agree to compromises that preserve their friendship.
