In the story, there is a kid that wants to make a lot of people laugh. So he goes to a Comedy contest secretly and then he won the contest then later on his aunt reads a newspaper that was saying that there was a contest before then aunt went to the kid and said you should go there then the kid had to tell the truth.

The connection to the story is I also had a time when a really wanted to swim so I told my mom that I was going out to play but instead I went to the swimming pool. Then later on the day mom said you should go to the swim practice next time. Then I also had to tell her the truth.
