It is Prince Wednesday's birthday but Daniel is not feeling well. Hearing Daniel's coughing and sneezing, Teacher Harriet encourages him to wash his hands.

When Daniel decides to play bakery with O the Owl and Katerina Kittycat, he sits down to take a rest. Teacher Harriet feels his head and finds that he is very warm. Daniel is asked to sit quietly while Teacher Harriet contacts his father.

Dad Tiger arrives to pick up Daniel and reminds him of Teacher Harriet's advice -- "When you're sick, rest is best." On the way home, Daniel make-believes that he is Super Daniel on a mission to fight germs.
