Muffy's Classy Classics Club

Summary
Muffy starts a book club, but doesn't want to read books others suggest after her own suggestions prove unpopular.

Plot
The episode begins with Bailey telling the viewers about what it's like to be Muffy's butler. He enjoys his job, even though it involves lots of hard work.

We then see Muffy and Bailey at the toy store. Muffy is buying Pretty Pioneer Dolls, each of them coming with their own book. Bailey notes that they all look the same, but Muffy reads that she should "collect the dolls, collect the books, and start your very own book club".

The first meeting of the book club (which is made up of Arthur, Muffy, the Brain, Francine, and Bailey) does not go so well. Francine thinks that the book they read (called "Abigail and the Apple Aspic") was so ridiculous she found it funny, and the Brain complains that the book was historically inaccurate. Arthur then tells Muffy that they should take turns deciding what to read. Brain suggests reading The Quark Knight.

At the next book club meeting, Bailey said he liked the book and was touched by Ned's character. Arthur likes it but was confused by the ending because he didn't know if Ned died but Brain explained that Ned was sucked into a hole in the space time contuimum so the story never took place, which Francine found interesting. Eventually, when it was Muffy's turn, she is forced to admit that she didn't read it because she thought it was too boring. Brain asked her how she can know it was boring if she never even read it, and Muffy said she knows by just looking at the cover of the book. She then concludes that since it's her book club, she should get to decide what to read. Sick of Muffy's bossy behavior, Arthur, the Brain, and Francine quit and form their own book club.

After a failed attempt at getting new members (which includes trying to invite Sue Ellen, Prunella, Binky, Mr. Ratburn, and the Tibble Twins), Muffy hosts another book club meeting where they review "Bernadette and the Butter Churn". The only new member is Muffy's father. They all agree (even Muffy) that the book was terrible. When Muffy thinks "Camilla and the Crusty Crumpet" will be better, Both Bailey and Muffy's father strongly doubt it saying that the books aren't very good, as they're only written to help sell dolls. Muffy, depressed, decides to end her book club and to move the books to the library, coming across The Sable Stallion, a book Francine wanted to read and which Muffy thought it was boring. Upon reading it, Muffy enjoys it, but falls asleep and has a nightmare about the Pretty Pioneers attacking her and wanted to do the same thing over and over. She see the Sable Stallion horse and ask him to help her but the horse said he's going to Francine's book club and reminded Muffy she thought all the other books are too boring and only wanted to read the same thing.

The next day, Muffy apologizes to Arthur, Francine, and the Brain for acting bossy and joins their book club (which also consists of Binky and Buster). As they talk about the book, Muffy asks them not to give it away - she's still reading it, but so far, she loves it.
