Laura borrows Nellie's music box without asking, and Nellie finds out. Nellie blackmails Laura into dropping her new friend, Anna.
Laura's guilt grows, and Charles teaches her an important lesson. Eventually, Nellie gets what's coming to her. A satisfying Laura-versus-Nellie episode. It's a story about how one small lie can snowball, and about the courage it takes to own up to a mistake.
