Plot
Arthur is raising quarters for the fire department to buy them a new puppy. He goes to turn the quarter he collected in to Mrs. McGrady, but she is distracted talking on the phone. He left the bag of quarters there and went to the Arcade with Buster, where he spent lots of quarters beating a game's high score. The next day, Mr. Haney informs Arthur that Mrs. McGrady never got the bag of quarters. Arthur was accused for stealing them and given after school detention for a week, plus he wouldn't be able to attend the Third Grade Picnic. Buster decided to do some detective work to find what really happened. He interrogated several suspects, finding no data yet. The only piece of information he found was that Mrs. McGrady's brownie mix had overflowed. When all conclusions pointed to Arthur, Buster found why the Brownie mix overflowed. There was one extra ingridient, quarters. Arthur was found innocent, and allowed to attend the picnic.
