But when they arrive in Australia, his parents become Worry Warts. Fed up with their fretting and fussing, Keith devises a scheme to make them rich. Very, very rich. After all Keith's hard work, his parents split up and start putting on Puppy Fat. Exasperated with their laziness, he devises a strategy to whip them into shape - and find them new partners! It's a brilliant plan...if he can pull it off!
