    All of Penguin’s friends are excited about the upcoming talent show, but Penguin can’t seem to figure out what his talent is.

Stuck behind the scenes organizing, Penguin leaves the contest saddened, the only one who hasn’t received a medal. When his friends decide to throw him a party, but their festivities fizzle, Penguin discovers he might have some special skills after all as he sets to work planning them all the best party ever.
