What starts as a playful afternoon down at the swimming hole (minus the two young peeping Toms) turns into a family nightmare when a local girl drowns.  Eloise Taylor, the young girl's mother, is distraught with grief and lashes out at everyone around here, including Laura, whom Eloise Taylor directly blames for her daughter's death.  Not even the silly hijinks of Jonathan Garvey can help lighten the mood. However, with a little time ( a day or two) Laura decides on a random act of kindness and stops by the Taylor house.  And once inside the house, Eloise starts to have visions of her daughter back from the dead...only dressed in Laura's clothes. Not only that, Eloise manages to abduct Laura leaving her stranded in the Root Cellar.  When Laura's absences is noticed all eyes turn to Bubsy, a local recluse, who happens to somehow be in possession of Laura's belongings.  Eventually, he is apprehended and questioned by Charles, Jonathan and the men of Walnut Grove but all of this leads nowhere.  In a strange twist of fate, Harriet Oleson is the one who saves the day by spilling the T about what Eloise Taylor said and did when visiting the Mercantile earlier. Will the residents of Walnut Grove find a new swimming spot? Who is Busby and why does Walnut Grove seem to know all about him? Considering how well Eloise and Cal can hit their targets, Would Ellen have been a sharp-shooter as well?
