Just as Tom...\nTom Thomas and his dad are getting ready to go fishing. Nolik wishes he could go fishing too. Papus explains to Nolik that Fixies don’t catch fish, but Nolik begs his dad to at least go make-believe fishing at the aquarium. Just as Tom Thomas and his dad are about to leave the apartment, Mom sadly reminds them that the mirror in the corridor is still not hung as promised. As she heads out the door, Dad promises her he will hang it now before they leave. He tells Tom Thomas it won’t take but a minute as he grabs a drill and a screw made to go into concrete. Unfortunately the only screw they have is not really big enough to hold the mirror. Tom Thomas and Dad understand that this means an unwanted trip to the hardware store, so Dad convinces himself that the screw will be good enough to at least hold it for a few days until he has more time to do it right. Dad hangs the mirror and they leave. The slam of the door causes the screw to start coming out of the wall. Papus comments that this is what happens when you are in a rush to finish. Understanding he is the only one who can stop the mirror from falling Papus tells Nolik they will need to postpone their fishing trip a bit. Papus starts to secure the mirror with some wire, but runs out of wire before he can finish. He decides that the wire will be strong enough to hold it while he takes Nolik fishing. Suddenly Dad and Tom Thomas come back - they have forgotten their fishing rods. This time the slamming door causes the wire to come untied, the screw to pop out, and the mirror to crash to the floor. Dad and Tom Thomas understand that now there is no way they can go fishing today, they’ll have to go to the store for a new mirror and the proper screws. Papus and Nolik also cancel their fishing trip. At least the fish in the aquarium are happy with the change of plans.\n
