Synopsis

A shoplifter had been targeting Ben Weaver’s store, and it fell to Andy and Barney to catch them. Barney, eager to assist, proposed disguising himself as a mannequin. The scheme quickly went awry when he wrongly accused a sweet, elderly woman, earning him the usual chorus of derision from the townspeople. Only Andy, however, entertained the possibility that Barney’s misguided suspicion might actually hold a kernel of truth.
