'''A Plot:''' It’s the Dog River Corn Festival and Hank is upset he’s been replaced by Wanda as the Chief Corn Maze Designer. Wanda’s excited, however, because she’s designed a maze so complex, she’ll definitely be able to get into Maze Masters – an exclusive club for primo puzzlers. Too bad the judge sent to evaluate her seems difficult to impress.
