When the head bookkeeper at the office announces one morning that he is the proud father of a bouncing boy, Skinner realizes that there is something missing in his life. Soon after Skinner's wife Honey confides that she is pregnant, and Skinner, convinced that the baby will be a boy, makes great preparations for his arrival: he is to be named William Skinner, Jr., and will become President one day. Notified at the office that Skinner, Jr. has finally arrived, Skinner rushes out and buys every toy that a little boy could desire. When he arrives at the hospital, however, he discovers that Skinner, Jr. is a girl, but Honey and he are as happy as if she were a he.
