1001 Dads/Prunella's Prediction

Season 4 Episode 8 | 26m 56s

When Buster cheerfully insists that he will miss the Father's Day picnic because he has other plans, Arthur is convinced that he's really sad about his parents' divorce and embarrassed to show up alone. Can Arthur and the gang find Buster a new dad in time for the picnic? / Rubella's tarot cards foresee a special birthday present and Prunella predicts a gift of flashpants, the hottest new trend.
