Synopsis by Hal Erickson
The Walnut Grove town council agrees to bankroll Mary (Melissa Sue Anderson) when she has a chance to participate in statewide mathematics competition. Armed with confidence of her friends and neighbors, Mary, accompanied by her parents, heads to Minneapolis with the certainty that she will win the competition -- only to suffer the humiliation of coming in second. Meanwhile, sister Laura (Melissa Gilbert) lets her responsibilities as temporary head of the Ingalls household get the better of her.
