Plot
When Sandy learns about a massive shipment of sand that needs to be delivered, she is determined to help, despite her size.

MY VIEWS
I don't know if this is a nitpick but the episode is more about Sandy being helpful instead of making the delivery, as said in the title. Wouldn't it be better to call it something like 'Helpful Sandy'? It fits with the narrative of the episode and would make way more sense instead of the title it has now. But other than that I do like how the episode showcase more of Sandy's personality, we know that she likes sand and that's how she got her name and that she has a helpful side for any situation. She kinda grows on me as a likeable character. The episode wasn't bad but sometimes the puns kinda irk me a bit since not all them are clever nor funny in my opinion.
