Arthur season 2 episode 12 consists of two separate stories. The first story, "Arthur's Faraway Friend," centers around Arthur who has made a new friend through the internet named Albert. They share a common interest in fantasy and role-playing games, and after a few months of chatting online, they decide to plan a meet-up at the library. However, when Arthur arrives, he learns that Albert's family has moved away and he is no longer in town. Arthur is disappointed, but his friends and family help him realize that even though Albert is far away, he can still stay in touch through the internet and letters.

The second story, "Arthur and The Square Dance," follows Arthur's teacher, Mr. Ratburn, who announces that their class will be participating in a square dancing performance. Arthur isn't thrilled with the idea and feels embarrassed to dance in front of his classmates. But with the help of his friends, Francine and Buster, he gains the confidence to participate in the performance and ends up having a great time.
