Baatar likes to tell his friends what to do. Baatar’s friends think poorly of Baatar, but they play with him because of who his father is.

Baatar mistreats others, so his father, Saihan, sends Baatar to search for a sponge to teach him a lesson. In a faraway land, Baatar finds work scrubbing floors and learns he has had a sponge all along. Baatar returns home, and Saihan knows Baatar will be a good leader.

Baatar leaves his home to find something for his father, Saihan. Baatar is unsure about what he is trying to find, and his father does not give him any clues, other than what it is called.
