Mr. Weatherbee is crushed when he overhears the children calling him a sissy, and the kids consider him even more of a "fraidy cat" after he stops them from parachuting off the roof with an umbrella. But then Mr. Weatherbee accidentally wins the children's respect when he falls off the roof himself.
