What happens

A campaigner for women's rights comes to Walnut Grove gathering signatures for a petition, and most of the men want nothing to do with it. Harriet signs, and the battle comes home to the Olesons.

Caroline leads the wives in walking out on their husbands until the men come around. A comic battle of the sexes with a serious point.
