Synopsis by Hal Erickson
A carnival pitches its tents on Walton's Mountain, and everybody is delighted--everyone except Elizabeth (Kami Cotler), who is tormented by nightmares of being trapped on a runaway Ferris wheel. Apparently, Elizabeth's phobia can be traced back to something that happened when she got lost on the Mountain during the carnival's previous visit. . .and John-Boy (Richard Thomas) is determined to unlock his sister's memory of that mysterious occurrence. Meanwhile, the height-challenged Ben (Eric Scott) goes to great (and amusing) lengths to be just as tall as his brothers.
