Sometimes it’s okay to be messy and loud, but Caillou is learning there are times and places when he has to be on his best behavior. During a Sunday brunch with the family at a fancy restaurant, Caillou minds his Ps and Qs; it’s Rosie who fools around under the buffet table! Caillou also conducts himself well when he’s Sarah’s guest at school at Little Brother or Sister Day. But he learns that good behavior also means being considerate of the feelings and belongings of others after he’s mean to Rosie and ruins one of her dolls. The rambunctious Rexy, too, gets lessons in good manners from Gilbert and Teddy – but he’s still got a lot to learn!

Since it's a special day, they're going to brunch (breakfast / lunch) at a restaurant. At the restaura
