James and Cassandra Cooper have been living with the Ingalls inside the crowded Little House and things couldn't be better. That's until we're reminded that the children are up for adoption and a family comes asking to take them.

Inspired by the Albert Ingalls playbook, the two decide to runaway and see what the world has to offer. They soon realize that there is no way to escape Walnut Grove. Again, why isn't anybody using the Prairie Air BnB/Sod House? How come Laura doesn't offer up the spare room(S) and Beds they have at the house they were gifted by Elizas Jane? When Caroline takes the children to school and goes to work.....Who is watching Toddler Grace?

The One that Reminds Us NO ONE is Safe in the Prairieverse. May We Make Them Proud Pt 1. S6 Ep 18

What starts as a simple annually charity picnic for the HIB evolves into Drama unlike anything we have witnessed in the Prairieverse before. Giving into peer pressure, Albert with his buddy try smoking a pipe in the basement of the HIB. Things would've stopped there only if these two had properly extinguished the pipe before attempting to conceal it. Hours later not only is the HIB gone but the repercussions of the incident are felt very deeply at the Ingalls and the Gravey household. Parental Breakdowns, Shame spirals, grief induced day-drinking...and this is just the first part of this story. Should Albert reconsider who he tries to befriend? Does Doc Baker have as many different occupational hats as Charles? Who left more of an impact: Baby Charles or Baby Adam?

Time to step out side of Walnut Grove's city limits as Charles and Caroline hop a train for Milwaukee. What's the reason for this trip, we're told it's for some Grange meeting....but really our main focus is on Charoline's 25th year class reunion! And what a shindig! We meet former classmates in abundance, have an awkward dinner with old friends and have one smashing good time at the reunion. In the end, after seeing their classmates and their lives, Charoline is ready to get back to their own home and enjoy their own level of success. Why does it seem everyone remembers Caroline but only one person remembers Charles? How many people graduated in the class of 1856?

Bart Slater is new to town and also the Walnut Grove School. It's a good thing his family moved to the area because Bart was expelled from his previous school for behavioral issues. It should be noted he is also three times the size of all the students and even Miss Eliza Jane. After losing control of her class due to Bart's antics, Eliza Jane is in jeopardy of losing her job. Leave it to Albert and Laura to come up with a brilliant plan to call forth the transformative power of the moon to try and settle this week's conflict. How old is Bart if he is the same size as Almanzo? Where did Mrs. Slater end up for the rest of the episode? Are you: Team Albert or Team Jacob?

What was suppose to be a nice visit/family reunion turns out to be anything but. Caroline's father/step-father, Fredrick Holbrook, arrives at Plum Creek with Caroline's mother...in a coffin. He remains isolated in the Prairie Air BnB completely grief stricken. Over time and a little poke from Albert, Fredrick begins to recount stories from his life and is encouraged to write them. Fredrick's stories are accepted for publication when Charles sends them in. But, reading the fine print the author pays for the printing. Being the Ingalls, this is the opportunity for the family to come together and help Grandpa Holbrook leave his legacy. Oh ...Mary and Adam become parents. How much time has passed since we've last seen Mary? Why doesn't Albert simply ask Laura what the book Silas Marner was about? Does this make the Ingalls a publishing house?

"Are You Lost My Little Lamb?" Faith Healer S6 Ep 10

A new pop up prayer meeting has been invited, by Harriet Oleson, into Walnut Grove led by the somewhat charismatic Reverend Danforth. It's the usual run of the mill gathering until Reverened Danforth demonstrates his ability to cure those who are suffering from an affliction. He makes a wheelchair bound women walk, a man toss aside his crutches and a blind woman see. But what he can't do is cure a ruptured appendix....but he can use his charm to sway his listeners to believe what he wants them to hear. The only people who aren't falling for this are: The Ingalls, The Gravey's, Doc Baker and Reverend Alden. Because of this distraction, Reverend Alden is now in jeopardy of losing his position at the Walnut Grove Church. An out of town delivery brings Charles to the tent of Reverend Danfoth where he sees a repeat of miracles performed on the same people he witnessed back in Walnut Grove. Which leads to a confrontation I've been praying for. Did Harriet Oleson forget how serious having acute appendicitis is? Anyone else happy that Anna's name got dropped and Reverend Alden still acknowledges his nuptials? Will Matthew Dobbs start to trust science more even if it still comes out of Doc Baker's mouth?

Mr.Edwards is bed ridden following a lumber incident that, unfortunately, involved little Alisha (You would think it would be Carl). While Grace has tried to mend her man back to health, he's been fighting against it like a grizzly bear. While a visit from Charles and Laura would normally be well received, the atmosphere around the new Edwards-Snider-Sanderson Estate is dire. Until Mr. Edwards announces the best thing to do is head out to the woods on a hunting trip. And this trip ends up being anything but a peaceful outing between old friends.

The Downward Spiral. Halloween Dream S6 Ep 7

It's Halloween in Walnut Grove and, unfortunately, Laura and Albert have decided not to recycle their old Lake Kezia Monster costume. Instead the duo has opted to dress up as someone's culture. In preparation for the long evening at Nellie's Halloween costume party, the two are sent to take a nap. And it's in Albert's dream we witness not only how incredible "realistic" Laura's costume making skills are but also we see how Albert was able to save himself, Laura and a made up town. What a waste of a Halloween episode. How many chickens did Laura need to make that headdress? Why couldn't we have had a mystery episode that took place at the party?

Reverend Alden has always watched over his congregation in Walnut Grove with nothing but admiration. And while none of that has changed what has is his attitude when he is told he is loved "the way a woman loves a man." by this episode's resident widow: Anna Craig. We start to see an another side of the Reverend we've never been privy to. It's also a side that seems to clash with Harriet's feeling of how a Reverend should behave. In fact Harriet goes out of her way to prevent this romantic relationship from happening. Even going as far as contacting Reverent Alden's Manager/Superiors/ General Synod of the Church to try and get him cancelled. While the church does send someone to investigates Harriet's slanderous accusations, it's Harriet who is forced to deal with her own feelings of love and church. How long has Anna Craig been a widow living in Walnut Grove? Does Harriet need a reminder of what "making love" actually entails? Does Mr. Oleson know much of Harriet's life before their meeting?

From main attractions to side show acts, the street of Walnut Grove has never been so vibrant. And it's all thanks to Mr. Oleson who sent an invitation for the circus to come to town. What Mr. Oleson didn't expect was to be reunited with his estranged sister, Annabelle, who is a member of the traveling troupe. While he wants to make amends, Mr. Oleson has to come to terms with his own prejudices and bad behavior. Sadly, we also have to spend time with Laura who, once again, sabotages another date Almanzo has for her own selfish reason. How long has Annabelle been a member of London's Circus? Who else is a little surprised Willie didn't interact with the circus more? When are people going to learn, you don't come between Laura and her man....future man?

"I Can Be Any Kind of Tree You Want...Just Give Me A Second to Warm Up." Family Tree S6 Ep 3

The kids of Walnut Grove School were correct about Miss Eliza Jane Wilder: She does indeed assign more home work that Alice Garvey ever did. And special projects too. In fact the latest project is a Family Tree. While Laura is ready to run home and start on hers, Albert is left wondering what to do about his, other than make one up. This leads to the decision for Charles and Caroline to finally/officially adopt Albert into the Ingalls family. What seemed like a simple process turns into anything but (are we surprised?) when Albert's Biological dad is located. Although the prospect of a son is the farthest thing on his mind, Jeremy Quinn is very pleased to learn that he will soon have a strong and youthful farm hand. Finding themselves on the other side of the law, the Ingalls fear their family will soon be torn apart. That's until the brilliance of Albert finds a way from preventing that from happening. Did Post-Mistress Mr. Oleson go through a different training program than Post-Mistress Kizia Horn? Who is really in the Oleson family tree? Is anyone else curious about Albert's mother or how he ended up in the orphanage?

"My, My, Me Oh My, I LOVE Pie!!!" Back 2 School Pt2. S6 Ep 2

Picking up right where we left off...Caroline confronts Laura about her misdeeds with Nellie's dinner date with Almanzo. While she's okay with "apologizing" to Nellie, Laura bolts rather than being forced, like a child, to apologize to Almanzo. More than ever Laura is determined to become a woman and she believes accelerating her plan in becoming an educator is the path in doing so. But first she has to pass her final School exam. And the only way to do so is to get the study material from the one person in town whose taken the test...Nellie Oleson. Nellie is nice enough to share the resources material as well as her own experience with taking the test and what to focus on (P.S. History is NOT important). On test day, Laura's dreams of being a graduate are dashed and she realizes that actions have consequences...not only hers but Nellie's. Oh, and Charles is having a hard time with Laura's feelings as she is starting to move towards womanhood. Why did Laura think Nellie would not retaliate for the Cayenne pepper chicken mess? How long before we see Bare-chested Charles again? Should Harriet have considered opening a mud bath spa for Nellie instead of a restaurant?

And we are back from the West Coast excursion and it's time to get back to school. The classroom seems different because 1) Ali G is no longer the teacher being replaced by a Miss Eliza Jane Wilder and 2) Nellie Oleson is a graduate/adult. Harriet decides to celebrate this moment by gifting Nellie her very own Hotel and Restaurant to Nellie's disgust. We also find out that Eliza Jane Wilder has a bother: Almanzo "Manny" Wilder. WOOF! You don't need a crystal or magic 8 ball to see this young man is going to amplify the rivalry between Laura and Nellie. Oh, Caroline gets a new job and it's the return of Bare-chested Charles. Man-o-Man what a wild return to the prairie. Does Laura know that her voice overs are actually spoilers? Almanzo/Manny/Manly/Zaldamo...how many names does one person need?

This time it isn't to follow Mary to Winoka or off to find Gold in the Country or even the possibility of moving away after a deadly tornado. This time it's to answer the wish of a dying young teen named Dylan who wants to see the ocean. With Street-smart Albert and Can't Keep A Secret Laura by his side, along with menagerie of adult characters: Hero Charles, Cyclops Mr. McCabe, Weaselly Ferret and Security officer Brake Man, this train ride is anything but dull. However, this dream of seeing the ocean is accelerating Dylan's symptoms and he's almost ready to give up. But along with his friends from home and the new West Coast Tycoon they meet....Dylan's dream becomes a reality. Is Laura ever gonna get a chance to ride in a passenger car when she goes on train rides? How long did it take this group to travel from Walnut Grove to San Francisco?

How sweet. Fresh Meat!?! That's until the meat is proven to be anything but sweet. Determined to survive the winter, two brothers with nothing, but bad ideas, decide to salvage their remain flock of lambs by slaughtering them and selling the meat. These sheep are falling one by one with an infection of Anthrax (Maybe? maybe not? No harm in NOT telling anyone about the possible risk/side effects). And in less than 24 hours The Harriet Oleson School of the Advancement of Blind Children is converted into The Harriet Oleson School of the Advancement of Blind Children and General Hospital. Doc Baker is there trying to manage the situation along with Head Nurse Hester Sue and fellow nurses...really anyone who isn't sick with the infection. Running out of time, medicine and warm weather, Charles and Jonathan Garvey are set to task with picking up supplies from the train station in neighboring Springfield and returning home. When it rains it pours....snows it blizzards (?) and Charles and Jonathan find themselves on the wrong end off a shotgun, lose their supplies and their ride home. Of course this doesn't stop them as they set out to save their family, friends and town from certain death. Was every student at the HIB sick, is that why we never saw any of them...except poor Thomas? Was Carrie really left alone at Plum Creek watching over Baby Grace this entire episode?

Out on a purchasing errand for some random blacksmith company, Charles finds his way to the town of Columbia to purchase some horses from a Harper Family Horse Farm. And it takes less than a minute for him to get involved with the family's life. Broken Patriarch, Dismissed Matriarch, Neglected Offspring...it's almost as if they have been waiting for Charles to arrive. With his time spent with this family, Charles manages to find out what has happened and proceeds to spend the rest of the episode helping them reconnect. In the end Charles rides off into the sunset. Why do I feel as though I just watched a "dream episode"? Could this explain why Charles didn't recognize Alyshea Sanderson-Edwards-Snider and instead called her Samantha? Did A Horse REALLY only cost $25?
