Plot

Theodore requests time off, imagining all the fun he'll have with a whole day to do whatever he wants, but his boss has other ideas. The Dispatcher expects Theodore to rest and confines him to the dock. It doesn't take long before the tug is totally bored. When everyone gets back from work Theodore wants to hear stories, but his friends are very tired. They do manage to tell him that he missed a chance to greet a ship from China. And they hadn't had time to move Barrington Barge, which was usually Theodore's job. That night, Theodore feels so bad that he has trouble getting to sleep. He knows he will think twice before asking to play hooky again.
