She's given the task of writing the script for the play, which is about the famous playwright William Shakespeare.

While Becky is hard at work, the evil Dr. Two-Brains is busy hatching a plan to steal a Shakespeare manuscript from the library. This manuscript is said to contain the unpublished works of Shakespeare, and Dr. Two-Brains believes that he can use its power to take over the world. He sends his monkey assistant, Inky, to retrieve the manuscript while he devises a way to steal it from him.

However, Inky has his own plans. He wants to become a famous playwright like Shakespeare and uses the manuscript to write his own play.

The episode ends with the school play being a huge success thanks to Becky's hard work and Inky's newfound love of writing. The students and teachers are thrilled with the play and are impressed with the way that Becky managed to make Shakespeare accessible and entertaining to a younger audience.
