When the first grade plans an exciting costume party, Anna-Maria decides to be a fairy princess, Sammy a tramp and Danny a hiccup! However, on the day of the party, as the children are snacking on cupcakes and enjoying themselves in their fun costumes, the third-grade bully comes into the class to harass everyone and tries to ruin the fun. Jim saves the day when he accidentally takes on the bully and thus, proves that he is truly The Strongest Man in the World.
