Funerella’s deathday (Birthday) is approaching and Rictus is planning a surprise party. He runs himself ragged trying to keep the secret while Fungus and Maggot try to figure out how NOT to have their parents invited to the school concert. Things go badly when Funerella wonders why everyone is acting so strange and inadvertently sets in motion a series of events that cause the concert to be moved to the hotel. Now Maggot and Fungus must devise a plan to hide the residents from their classmates.
