 Sometimes you just have to estimate, as Eddie learns in an episode that starts out with Miss Toliver appearing as an Egyptian queen and ends up with a pretty good guess as to the dog population of New York City. The "queen," it turns out, needs to find out how many cat biscuits she has in a large bin, and the only way to find out is to estimate. At the end of this class assignment, Eddie is given the task of coming up with the number of dogs in New York City. With advice from photo shop owner, Vincent, and from his friend Johnny, a bike messenger, Eddie gets to work. He gets some tips from professionals who use estimation: a veterinarian, a bug farmer, and a bat expert. With all this in mind, and after some amusing experiences, Eddie discovers how to make a smart guess.
