The Frying Pan
Flying on their fixieboards, Simka and Nolik argue over which of them is more dexterous. Simka challenges Nolik to perform their acrobatics on ice. Nolik is brave and accepts the challenge, but there's a problem - the Fixies don’t have an ice rink. Tom Thomas quickly pours and freezes some water in a frying pan. Now the siblings have a rink for their contest. Nolik goes first and does quite well, but his skills can’t compare to the dazzling ice skating display of his sister. But Simka’s bragging is too much to bear, and so Nolik and Tom Thomas have a plan to slow Simka down. Nolik distracts Simka as Tom Thomas sprinkles some table salt on the ice, causing it to melt. This makes Simka to fall and accidentally scratch the non-stick coating on the frying pan. Simka offers to repair the pan, which is Tom Thomas’ mom’s favorite for making pancakes, but only under the condition that they both he and Nolik jump on one leg a hundred times. The boys agree and Simka fixes the pan with her pack-o-mat before Mom returns. As Mom makes pancakes she can’t understand why Tom Thomas is hopping up and down. He tells her it’s to make his leg stronger. Also hopping up and down, Nolik tells Simka she could never do what he is doing on the ice, and she is willing to bet him, but Nolik decides that isn’t a good idea.
