Please tell me you remember Arthur literally dying.

Was talking to my bf last night about this traumatic scene from The Magic School Bus. I rewatched the scene for the first time in probably 15 years and it was exactly how I remembered it. Arthur’s sister? or cousin? Comes with them to space and she collects so much stuff to take back to earth as “proof” that the school bus won’t start. Arthur begs her to leave her stuff behind, but she ultimately refuses. Apparently, the only solution here was for Arthur to TAKE HIS HELMET OFF ON PLUTO. Which resulted in the following image. Everyone freaks out and it cuts to the next scene where Arthur is covered in blankets surrounded by tissues in the classroom. He only suffers from a mere cold after literally turning his brain into a 7/11 slushie. Whaaat.
