Birth of the Constitution (1x2)

:

The second part of This Is America, Charlie Brown starts out with Charlie Brown feeding Snoopy, gathering water, and doing other hard work. Charlie Brown then gets Sally and Linus and tells them they have to go the hall where the delegates are coming. Snoopy goes too, but first he and Woodstock try on different wigs. They get to the hall where they see Lucy, Peppermint Patty, and Marcie. They are all assigned jobs to do. Peppermint Patty and Marcie's job is to bring water to the delegates. Charlie Brown is in charge of sweeping valet parking. Lucy is mop girl, and Sally is inkwell lady. Snoopy is a watch dog, and Linus is an usher. George Washington is the first delegate we see and Charlie Brown takes care of his horse. Inside the meeting the delegates discuss the new law of the land. They discuss how the House of Representatives will work. Linus listens in. Outside, Charlie Brown is bored so he starts hitting rocks with a stick. He says it would be a good sport. Lucy thinks it is the dumbest idea. In the hall the delegates are now discussing who would be head of the government. Benjamin Franklin comes to Charlie Brown's house to borrow a kite. Outside of Charie Brown's house there is a lighting storm. When Benjamin Franklin returns it he has been struck by lighting. Days and days go by and the delegates are still discussing. Charlie Brown invents two more sports: basketball and football. Peppermint Patty writes a letter to her grandmother telling her about what is going on there. On September 15, 1787 the constitution is born and voted on. Linus then reads to everybody the preamble
