Synopsis
Maybe it’s post-New Year’s boredom setting in. Maybe it’s the cold, frisky air. Whatever the cause, the citizens of Mossy Creek seem determined to get into trouble on this clear winter day in mid-January. Police Chief Amos Royden and his loyal officers, Mutt and Sandy, can barely keep up with the calls.
Hank and Casey Blackshear’s 93-year-old Great Aunt Irene Sawyer battle renovation pitfalls (literally) in their cranky house. Pearl Quinlan fights her sister, Spiva, over a plate of brownies, and Patty Campbell performs a makeover on Orville Gene Simpson’s front yard (against Orville’s wishes). Meanwhile, Bert and Honey Lyman take in twin baby nieces (possibly upsetting a ghost in the process), and last but not least Amos and Ida finally stop fighting their mutual attraction. And then the trouble really begins!
