Season 7: The missing grocery list/Biff and Maria’s carpentry contest
Sponsors: B, I, 4
Scene 1: Sherlock Hemlock visits Hooper’s Store for a snack, but David and Mr. Hooper are looking for a missing grocery list. Sherlock finds a blank piece of paper, but David reminds him that the list has words on it. Then Sherlock sees the menu, but Mr. Hooper says the words are small. Then Sherlock points out the newspapers on the newsstand, and both adults think all hope is lost. Finally, Mr. Hooper walks out from behind the counter and David notices that the shopping list is stuck to Mr. Hooper’s shoe. Sherlock Hemlock takes credit for solving the mystery and proudly leaves…without placing his order.
