Nobisuke instructs Nobita to weed the garden despite the intense heat. To avoid the work, Doraemon provides the Shadow Cutting Scissors, which allow Nobita to detach his shadow. The detached shadow then performs the gardening tasks while Nobita remains idle. This specific episode was remade in 1996 under the identical title, maintaining the core premise of using the magical tool to delegate physical labor to the shadow.
