'''A Plot:''' Corner Gas has an unwanted visitor: a mouse. Oscar makes it his personal mission to capture and kill it, but Davis tags along to try to convince him to do the humane thing and let the mouse free.
'''B Plot:''' Wanda injures her back, and both Emma and Karen have suggestions to help her. The two bicker back and forth about what method is better, Karen with physiotherapy and Emma with a home remedy. Unfortunately for Wanda both ideas actually make her back worse.
'''C Plot:''' When Lacey is confused by Hank and Brent claiming they've never heard of Trivial Pursuit, they admit they're actually playing a game where they get people to believe a ridiculous lie. Annoyed, Lacey tries her hand at the game to get them back, but doesn't seem to grasp the concept.
