Back out front, Stu and Chaz have broken many of Betty and Howard's windows, but Stu still wants to continue practicing. Yet again a tennis ball flies over the garage and into the backyard, this time hitting Spike. Spike, startled and frightened, rushes all around the backyard before trying to get through the fence into the DeVill's backyard. But Spike gets stuck, and part of the fence begins knocking an apple tree with such force apples begin falling rapidly...right onto the fall-in shelter! |

Summary
When the babies think the sky is lower than usual and could be falling down, Angelica convinces them the sky has fallen before and will fall again as a prank. But when a stray tennis ball whacks her on the head, she mistakes it for a piece of the sky, and they all believe the sky is falling! In order to survive, they build a shelter, and wait....
Recap
One day the babies are playing in the backyard, but Chuckie is strangely fascinated by the sky, and less interested in playing. Tommy and the twins don't understand why until Chuckie says it seems lower today, for some reason. Afterwards all four are staring skyward. Chaz and Stu pass through the backyard on their way to practice playing tennis together off the Pickles' garage door. The fathers are mystified by the strange behavior of the babies, but don't let it stop them from practicing tennis.
Angelica comes by, and when they explain they think the sky might be falling, she smirks and tells them the sky does look lower, like the last time it fell. They ask for more details, and Angelica tells them it happened just before they were born, and that it was the end of the world. Everything got worse until finally, all the TV shows were cancelled. Angelica continues to frighten them until a tennis ball zooms over the garage and hits her on the head just as she's describing how the sky will fall in chunks.
Now Angelica is convinced the sky really is falling! The Deville twins, Angelica, and Chuckie panic, but as the brave one, Tommy suggests they can build a "fall-in shelter". Soon a shelter has been constructed beneath the picnic table in the backyard. Angelica puts supplies in the shelter, including deluxe crayons (with built-in sharpener), cookies, and the VHS collection of Dummie Bear cartoons. One by one Angelica allows in Tommy, Chuckie, and Lil inside with her, but not Phil because the shelter isn't big enough apparently. None of the babies will stay in the shelter if they all can't be saved, so Angelica has a change of heart and allows them all in.
To pass time, Angelica tells them all about how they'll rule the world "as pirate kings. 'Course I'll be the king of all of you!" Her vision includes raiding toy and candy stores since as the only survivors there won't be anyone to stop them from doing so.
Back out front, Stu and Chaz have broken many of Betty and Howard's windows, but Stu still wants to continue practicing. Yet again a tennis ball flies over the garage and into the backyard, this time hitting Spike. Spike, startled and frightened, rushes all around the backyard before trying to get through the fence into the DeVill's backyard. But Spike gets stuck, and part of the fence begins knocking an apple tree with such force apples begin falling rapidly...right onto the fall-in shelter!
Inside the little shelter they hear the sound of falling apples overhead and think the sky is falling. They scream, cry, and hold onto each other until Spike makes it through the fence and the apples stop falling. Cautiously, they peer out. The backyard is quiet and empty, and assume they're the only survivors, not realizing the truth. Angelica appoints herself president of the world and ushers them back inside Tommy's house, insisting that it's OK since there's nobody else left.
