Plot
On the start of a three day weekend, Muffy joins in on a conversation about Crown City because Sue Ellen was talking about her upcoming trip to Crown City. Muffy feels disappointed because she had never been there, unlike most of the other kids. She convinces Sue Ellen to take her with her, and she makes a list of three things she wants to do: 1: Have a fancy dinner. 2: Go on a shopping spree, and 3: experience a tasteful cultural event. They drive there, and meet up with Sue Ellen's former babysitter Carla. However, they all go to an Ethiopian resturant called Addis Ababa. Muffy has to eat with her hands, which annoys her. She almost gets hit in the face by a fish while Carla was shopping for fish. She goes to the store Little Lady Dollar Mart. Carla offers a cow beret that she found in the store. After declining it, she finally accepts it and buys it, but does not where it. Later in the evening, she goes to a poetry club called Renae's, to complete her task of "tasteful cultural event". She sits down and gum gets stuck to her dress. She gets angry, and rants about how bad Crown City is. Everybody claps for her, including Carla and Sue Ellen because they thought it was poem for the poetry slam. She leaves, majorly upset, and goes underground to the Crown City Subway. She later appreciates the value of the city and its culture, and finally decides to where the cow beret.
