An emergency opens the episode when Bunnie suddenly collapses and the doctor is called. The doctor suspects she ingested laxatives after classmates accuse another girl of spiking a drink. Children and parents argue—one girl claims the accused stole a bracelet and drugged someone—and adults press for punishment. The father reacts by ordering the girl sent away and tells Maggie to keep an eye on her. Bunnie pleads, "Don't send me away," as shouts and tears fill the house, leaving the poisoning allegation and Bunnie's fate unresolved.
