Casper the Friendly Ghost, while all the other ghosts spend their time ghosting, is studying about how to become a Boy Scout. He finds a troop of Boy Scouts, but they all run away in fear. Finally, he meets Little Billy, who is too young to be a scout but is okay with Casper being his friend. Billy sees that a large bear has the scouts cornered, and Casper comes to their aid and scares the bear away. The grateful scouts acclaim Casper as a hero.
