This takes 5 years after the events of the first movie and most people do not know what happened with the time space continuum. Thanks to the Mr. Peabody's fast thinking he made most people there forget by making the sky light up in a specific pattern so that the people looking up would forget the last 10 min. He did all this so that Sherman could go to school and has an ordinary life (well as ordinary as it could be given the fact that he has a time machine).
Sherman and Penny are in middle school on a field trip to the museum, and the teacher gave the students an assignment to do asking questions about different pieces of art. Instead of waiting to do it when they get home Penny and Sherman decided to just start writing their papers while they were in the museum.
Sherman sat down to write on _ so he took a moment to think and on the same bench he saw penny writing something. He quickly looked back down and wrote the name of the painting then he heard.
"Psst...psst, Sherman" Penny whispered keeping her voice down because it was a museum. Sherman looked at Penny again "Great minds think alike, huh" Penny whispered.
"Yeah, I didn't feel like having to work on this when I got home, since we are both going to be done do you want to hang out after school?" Sherman whispered.
"Sure, just have to text my mom" Answered Penny. Now having even more of a reason to get the assignment done they both picked the last painting and just jot down their thoughts on it.
Both of them got done before the trip ended and just stood around looking at different art one being a copy of Van Gogh's Starry Night (The painting in the movie during the flashback). Sherman whispered "I have a funny story about that painting"
"What where you there when Van Gogh painted it like we were with Mona Lisa, oh and my mom said it is ok to come" Penny whispered.
"Sweet, so what do you want to do? But about the painting you could say that I was there," Sherman followed Why not? You totally want too. Either that or you just get him to do your homework; both of you always get A's in everything"
Penny embarrassed and angry she did all her work herself, had to take a second and calm down "Are you upset that you never beat me in anything? Still holding a grudge since I beat you in front of the class"
Last week the gym class was playing tennis and Penny always like to play tennis since see was younger and when she was playing with her friends everyone thought she was pretty good. Taylor on the other hand was annoyed at all the attention the popular girl was getting thought this was a good chance to knock her down a peg. She went up to Penny and said "Wow your pretty good are you having fun, I bet you can beat the head of the tennis team" Taylor wasnt on the tennis team she was clearly good enough.
Penny walked up to Taylor out of breath "That was amazing I didn't think you could return the last one, you want to play again sometime"
This annoyed Taylor even further, Penny was having fun, she didn't even consider it a competition and she even wanted to play again. That and she was sure all this was just acting on Penny's part so that she would seem nice, surely Penny was laughing on the inside about beating one of the best on the tennis team. This made Taylor snap "You just got lucky at the end; there is no way someone like you could beat me! taking Penny with him.
As they were moving Penny heard Taylor say something like "running away with boyfriend"
Sherman and Penny turn the corner and keep walking till they got to modern act, he then turned around "Sorry, but people were starting to stare and chances are both you and Taylor would have got in trouble if the teacher caught us."
"Thanks" Penny let out a deep breath, if the conversation went on she knew that she would have gotten into trouble "But didn't you say something about sculptures? This is modern arts puns defiantly rubbed off on him, then Penny looked down and suddenly got a little nervous "Um, Sherman... we're still holding hands"
Sherman quickly lets go "Um... sorry" he says nervously and turns so that he's not looking at Penny.
She looks away "It's nothing". She thinks back to how her mother always says that she likes Sherman. She then tries to think of something else because if someone saw them holding hands and it got around everybody would make fun of them for it. But it wouldn't be so bad Sherman is cute, smart and funny. She wouldn't mind holding hands, going to the park or just watch him playing with his normally messy hair or anything.
"We should finish checking this place out and go back to group so people don't think that anything is up." Sherman said interrupting her thoughts.
"Yeah" she said snapping out of it.
They snuck back into the group, and when each of their friends asked where they were they said each said that they finished the project given.
On the bus ride back to school Penny was talking to her friends and could have sworn she heard Taylor talking about her behind her back.
