Plot[]
Poppy gets a drink from a vendor at the market but is interrupted by Biggie (and Mr. Dinkles). Biggie has an issue - theres a spider in his pod and he needs her help getting rid of it. Poppy notes he loves spiders but Biggie says this one is very scary. She scoffs and doesn't believe him.
At his pod, it turns out to be very scary. She asks for a broom and tries to shoo the spider out but the spider eats the broom. She next tries to freeze it out but the spider knits itself a sweater out of its own silk. She asks if they can get some sweaters, the spider makes a puppet, shakes its head and roars at her. They try to lure it out with a fake critter bug, but Biggie's description of it being chocolate flavor with cherries on top causes Mr. Dinkles to eat the fake bug instead.
As the Spider continues to make itself at home in his pod, Poppy decides to try an approach they always do best - befriend the spider. They make a break through when they hand the spider a flower, which it adorns in its hair. They start a puzzle and invite the spider to finish, it does the puzzle badly but they applaud it anyway. They next play charades with it and correctly guess the picture its badly drawing. They lastly read a bedtime story to the spider and finally have peace. The spider finally opens up that it feels bad about taking over Biggie's pod and it was sheltering because it got scared by a snake.
Biggie states to not worry as the snake cannot find the spider in his pod - at that moment the rug underneath them reveals itself to be the snake. They rush out of the pod, and the snake looks disappointed.
