Therein lied another problem -- the "something important" issue, as portrayed in this episode. Rather than have it truly be something important ... such as perhaps the mailman doing something inappropriate with Jan or Marcia, Cindy refusing to tell because she took her parents' admonition to "not tattle" seriously, and then Mike and Carol finally realizing they need to clarify the difference between tattling and when she might be expected to tell the truth and report when somebody is doing something wrong and dangerous and could hurt themselves or someone. Instead, for reasons unknown, it was merely Tiger (doing what he did best, as this entire episode bears out) doggie-swiping a claim voucher for a new stereo Alice had won in some hokey advertising jingle contest.
