Plot

Sunny tries to teach the kids about playing the blues, but has no success with Eddie, as he's never wanted for anything in his life. As he attempts to play, Eddie accidentally breaks his clarinet's reed, and tosses it into the trash (though reeds are easily replacable). The scene changes to Eddie's birthday party, to which he invites all of his classmates, but seems to be the only one not enjoying himself. Sunny gives him a compass that directs him to his real present, and Eddie and Li'l D leave the party in a helicopter to follow it. The helicopter is wrecked by Cheddar Man and Eddie's cell phone is eaten by a dog, leaving the boys stranded in the middle of town. The compass leads the boys to Eddie's present: the clarinet which he had previously thrown away. In despair, Eddie tries to play for money on a street corner for bus fare, and manages to understand the blues at last. He understands that Sunny's present wasn't the clarinet, but a lesson to count his blessings.
