Linus's flippant comment to his Gramma that he'll kick his blanket habit  when she kicks her smoking habit backfires; Lucy bullies Linus, pesters Schroeder, and organizes a \"crab-in\"; plus Charlie Brown copes with Valentine's Day depression, the Little Red-Haired Girl, the increasingly  malevolent kite-eating tree, and baseball losses.
