Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Laura (Melissa Gilbert) befriends a new schoolmate named Anna (Katy Kurtzman), who has a pronounced stutter. Hoping to humiliate Anna, bratty Nellie Oleson (Alison Arngrim) agrees not to snitch on Laura when the latter "borrows" and breaks one of the Olesons' precious music boxes -- but in return, Laura must agree to be mean to Anna. This is only the beginning of Nellie's nastiness in this particular episode -- but be assured that a delicious comeuppance awaits the little monster in the final scene.
