Synopsis by Hal Erickson
On their first day at school, Laura and Mary Ingalls (Melissa Gilbert, Melissa Sue Anderson) run smack dab into the snooty snobbery of Nellie Oleson (Alison Arngrim), who haughtily refers to the sisters as "country girls." Assigned to write an essay, Laura is unable to finish the assignment. But she manages to emerge triumphant through the simple expedience of standing before the classroom and speaking from her heart.
