Episode synopsis
Wimzie has her first sleepover, how exciting! She invites everyone, Lou Lou, Jonas, and Horace (Bo tags along too). Yaya even bakes special double chocolate chip cookies for the ocassion (and still makes sure Rouso doesn't sneak one.) Horace makes fun of Lou Lou when when she wants to go home after finding out that she has to sleep away from home, and has to listen to scary stories. Yaya encourages Lou Lou to stay, so she can have cookies, and stay up past their bedtimes. She stays after, but Horace goes into hiding for fear the others will make fun of him for being afraid of the dark. Wimzie has Jonas pitch up his tent, so Horace can sleep outside with the lights on, and they can sleep in the tent where its dark. Horace soon misses his friends, and joins the fun in the tent.
