Norb, who's four minutes older, has always been just a wee bit taller than Dag (something he relishes). His world is turned upside down when Dag shows up for their weekly measuring and has grown to be a wee bit taller than him.
Episode Summary
On a Monday, Dag and Norb have "Measurin' Day". However, once the measured lines are drawn, Norbert is shocked to find out that Daggett is taller than him.
Norbert tries everything to get taller than Dag but doesn't succeed. Later that night, things are no better as Norb has a nightmare about Dag being taller than him.
When it's "Measuring Day" comes again, Norb tells Dag he doesn't want anymore of that day. Defiant, Dag starts the measuring but not before bending down so he's short and Norb is tall again.
