His father tells him that to get Cammies attention, he has to give her something to notice.On their way to the Brewster High basketball game, Cleatus comes over to ask Pete for a favor. He has two problems with being the mascot the first is that few people seem to think that he is funny, and his lackluster performances only match the teams dismal performances on the court because the team is on a losing streak at one point, the coach even remarks that they only hadpoints in the entire previous season. Cleatus second problem is that he has an allergy to the suit, which causes him to sneeze violently every time he puts it on. Uncomfortable with the sweating, congestion, and swelling joints that he gets whenever he dons the suit, he pleads for Pete to wear the chicken mascot suit instead. As part of the bargain, Cleatus tells Pete he will get his sister on a date with him, and he agrees. ........
