Episodes Included:
●Hi'-Neighbour!
In this short, Jerry Tucker is a new kid in the neighborhood arriving on a moving van headed for Cherry Street, but as the kids go to meet him and his new toys, one of which is a shiny new toy fire engine, they discover he's a selfish brat with no intention of sharing. As a further indignity, Jerry takes a shine to Jane, Wally's girlfriend. To redeem himself back up in Jane's eyes, Wally, in a sudden manner, lies about having a toy fire engine big enough for the whole gang to ride on at once. Jerry just scoffs at them, and to save their honor, the gang pitches in to build it, taking what they need from around the neighborhood such as ladders and hoses from the neighbors already using them. Jerry's effort to prove to Jane that Wally doesn't have a fire engine results in him running away in his underwear, when a drill the boys are using comes through the wall and tears his pants off. Although Spanky and Scotty contribute the most important parts, a steering wheel and the bell, they mostly get shooed away from creating it. However, the two younger boys have the last laugh as they point out the finished "fire engine" is way too big to get out of the barn, necessitating knocking down a wall to get it out to show off to Jerry. While the clunky creation does carry everyone, including Stymie at the back steering wheel, it's not very impressive to someone like Jerry, who has received everything from a toy store. He even discourages Jane from riding on it out of pure spite. Jerry then challenges Wally to a race, which leads them down a hill. When their unruly creation actually gets too close to him (with Stymie and the gang nearly surrounding Jane and Jerry briefly at one point), Jerry ditches his toy fire engine on purpose to keep it from getting damaged, leaving the hapless Jane (who was slipping from it due to the loose ladder) in the process of coasting and crashing in a yard, and earning her hostility. Infuriated, Jane turns on a sprinkler that douses Jerry. Meanwhile, Wally and the gang are careening down the hill at incredible speed with failed brakes, mowing over pedestrians on the sidewalk and crashing through a high hedge, whose branches tear the clothes from the backs of the gang. Spanky who has survived unscathed inside the metal hood, emerges and starts tearing off his clothes to help cover the honor of his buddies.

●The First Round-Up
Wally Albright and the gang have planned for an elaborate camping trip for a week at Cherry Creek, but Wally's father is convinced his boy and the others will be back by nightfall. Meanwhile, Wally and Stymie try to shoo off Spanky and Scotty rather than to have to drag them along. Their reasoning is that the kids would never survive the trip, but upon arrival, Spanky and Scotty are already there after having hitchhiked their way to the site. This results in the theme of the trip with the younger boys reminding the older boys of their reluctance to have them around them. The little kids are also the only ones who planned far enough ahead to bring food, sharing it with the big kids in one big mob. As things get darker, the big kids get scared as the younger ones get excited, making shadows from their lamp which adds to the thunder and lighning passing over, inadvertently scaring off the older kids. Left alone, Scotty and Spanky are by themselves as their lamp is carried by a turtle under it into the creek, where it goes out. Spooked, they jump into their sleeping bags and stick their legs out to race after the big kids running home.

●Divot Diggers
The gang has somewhow managed to get out on to the greens at the Greenpoint Country Club and Golf Course. Buckwheat is the caddy for Spanky and Darla. When Spanky gets caught in a sand trap, he checks to see if anyone is watching, and then throws the golf ball out by hand. Porky is the caddy for Alfalfa, recording zeroes for each of Alfalfa's swipes at the ball in the sand trap. When he finally hits it, Porky knocks it into the hole with a shot from his pea shooter. Meanwhile, the caddies walk off the job in protest of their low rates, and in desperation the caddymaster recuits the gang to fill in for the day. The gang's skills as replacement caddies are a detriment to the real golfers even as their pet chimp breaks one player's clubs, takes over the tractor used to mow the course, and wreaks terror on the grounds. A fence ends up being destroyed with the gang riding a section of it down hill amidst several terrified golfers.

●Second Childhood
It's the sixty-fifth birthday for reclusive crotchety hypochondriac Greenpoint resident Grandma Tilbury, but it's all about how far her servants can take her cantankerous complaining as they try to sedate her temperament with her medicine. Her mood is not ready when a toy airplane suddenly takes course through a window into her parlor and shatters a vase in its path. Behind it on the street, the Rascals are wondering where it went, and Spanky is the logical choice to face the old lady to get the plane back, slyly pretending he doesn't see the broken vase as he tries to head out. His impudence over the price of the damage is a bit of a shock to the butler, but the old lady finds it to be a welcome change. She wants the Rascals to pay for the damages, but without any money, Spanky is more than willing to drag the gang in on helping him work it off by doing yard work. Before long, the old lady is doing the work for them to show them how to do it, but as Alfalfa watches, he lets go with a few chords of "Oh Susannah." The old lady wants to show him how to sing the song right at the piano, but when Spanky's slingshot gets caught on the piano bench and snaps back on her, she becomes fascinated by it, using to to destroy her pill bottles with glee. Grandma is soon reliving her childhood playing on their roller skates, terrorizing her servants and bonding with the gang as they discover the fountain in the garden and dive in, realizing that one is only as young as they feel..

●Glove Taps
One Friday, there's a new kid in the neighborhood named Butch accompanied by a sidekick called The Woim. He's taking over the neighborhood and instead of beating everyone up, to save time he'll take on the toughest kid on the street. Spanky names their champion as Alfalfa, much to Alfalfa's great surprise. Convinced his buddy will win confidence by fighting Butch, Spanky uses a book, How To Be A Fighter - 10 Easy Lessons to train Alfalfa for the fight, getting him in shape with roadwork, rub-downs and shadow-boxing. Unfortunately, Alfalfa loses to the shadow (actually Porky taking a swing from behind a curtain), and then is knocked out by Buckwheat with one punch in a sparring session in the Ajax Athaletic Club. On Saturday, the day of the big fight, Alfalfa the Oklahoma Wild-Cat (or The Thin Man as referred to by Butch) is set to battle the neighborhood bully. Butch is ready to lay out Alfalfa until the little kids Buckwheat and Porky come to the rescue by knocking Butch out cold from behind the ring, leaving a very stunned and surprised Alfalfa to take credit for winning the day.

●Hearts are Thumps
The boys at Adams Street Grammar School have no interest in observing Valentine's Day, and to prove it to the girls, they found the He-Man Woman-Haters' Club in order to serve as their united front against the holiday. However, Darla finds a chink in their armor by winking at Alfalfa and giving him an invitation to lunch to exchange Valentines. Spanky decides to teach his wayward buddy a lesson by tampering with their lunch as the two make googly eyes at each other on the playground. Spanky and Buckwheat put a slice of soap in Alfalfa's sandwich and substitute liquid soap for the cream in his cream puff. This makes for a very difficult lunch and hard to digest meal for the would-be Romeo. Meanwhile, Alfalfa tries to bear through lunch as pleasantly as possible without offending Darla. Back in class, she encourages him to sing as she plays the piano. After a drink of water, Alfalfa sings "Let Me Call You Sweet Heart" as soap bubbles flow from his lips to the stunned surprise of Darla and Miss Jones and the hysterical delight of the class. As Alfalfa runs from the room, the vindicated Spanky tears up the Valentine to Alfalfa.
