Horrid Henry is a British children's television series based on the book series of the same name by Francesca Simon. The show follows the misadventures of the titular character, a young boy who is constantly getting into trouble.
In season 2 episode 21, titled "Horrid Henry and the Ice Cream Dream," Henry has one thing on his mind - ice cream. He's determined to get his hands on as much of the sweet treat as possible, and he'll do whatever it takes to make it happen.
The episode begins with Henry dreaming about ice cream. In his dream, he's surrounded by towering cones of colorful, delicious-looking ice cream. He's just about to take a bite when he wakes up to reality - a world without ice cream.
Determined to make his dream a reality, Henry sets out on a mission to get some ice cream. His first stop is his local ice cream parlor, but unfortunately for Henry, it's closed. Undeterred, he decides to try his luck at the supermarket.
At the supermarket, Henry heads straight for the freezer section and starts loading up his cart with as many tubs of ice cream as he can find. But just as he's about to make his grand escape, he's caught by his arch-nemesis Moody Margaret.
Margaret is determined to ruin Henry's day, and she's not going to let him get away with stealing all that ice cream. She chases him through the supermarket, tripping him up and knocking over displays as she goes.
But Henry is nothing if not determined, and he manages to outsmart Margaret and make his getaway with the ice cream. He even manages to convince his little brother Perfect Peter to go along with his plan.
Back at home, Henry and Peter settle in for a marathon ice cream session. They're surrounded by tubs and tubs of ice cream, and they're determined to eat every last scoop. But things start to go awry when they realize they've eaten far too much - they're both starting to feel sick.
Desperate to get rid of all the ice cream before their parents find out, Henry and Peter come up with a plan. They'll sell the ice cream to their neighbors, who are more than happy to buy it from them. But things take a turn for the worse when their neighbors start fighting over the ice cream, leading to chaos in the streets.
In the end, Henry learns that there can be too much of a good thing. He realizes that sometimes it's better to enjoy things in moderation, and that there are consequences to his actions. But even though he's learned his lesson, you can bet he'll be dreaming of ice cream again soon.
