It's Father's Day, which means that Shmoop has to write a letter to his dad. Shmoopers, as Shmoos is called, are trying to figure out what to do for their dad on this special day. They're trying to find a present for him, but they can't figure out how to do it without spilling all their secrets to each other, which is a big no-no. Shmopers is all, "dude, I'm not going to give you a present because you're so ungrateful for me, and I don't want you to be ungrateful for your dad, either. I'd like to help you out, but you've got to be grateful for what I've done for you." Shmooper is all "okay, fine, we're going to find out what you want, and then we'll figure out a way to give it to you, too" , which Shmoops is all too happy to do.
