Three's a Crowd

Summary
Marina wants to join Prunella and her mom in their early-morning yoga routine, but Prunella isn't sure she wants to share that special time with her mom.

Plot
Both Prunella and her mother are doing yoga, which they do every morning.

Later on Prunella is playing with her friend Marina. Prunella is surprised to see Marina unintentionally entering a yoga pose, and says that she is doing it almost perfectly. Prunella then suggests that Marina does yoga with her and her mother. Marina at first doesn't want to embarrass herself, but Prunella reassures her that won't happen. Marina then tickles Prunella soon after.

The next morning as Prunella and Wanda are about to begin doing yoga, Marina shows up and soon the three start. Despite it being her first time, Marina does very well, surprising both of them.

While looking at clothes, Muffy asks Prunella if she can join in, but Prunella denies her stating that it's just for fun.

While doing yoga the next morning, Prunella starts to get jealous of Marina and tries to do a new pose that could have hurt herself, as she couldn't get out of it. As her mother assists her, Marina also offers to help but Prunella angrily declines.

The next morning Prunella plans not to do yoga, and so Wanda and Marina continue on without her. Prunella then goes over over to Marina's house to ask Mrs. Datillo how to sew. As they are sewing, Marina arrives after the yoga session and Prunella eventually leaves.

Prunella then makes a phone call to Mrs. Datillo and lies that her mother pulled a muscle and thus cannot do yoga anymore. Rubella overhears the conversation and tells Wanda.

The next morning Prunella finds that Wanda does not want to do yoga, and Rubella comes in to call Prunella out on her lie. Prunella admits that she was afraid that Marina was stealing her mom away from her. Wanda reassures Prunella that she will always be her daughter and will never like Marina as much as she loves her.

Wanda chooses to do something different when it comes to yoga. The episode finishes with Prunella, Wanda, and Marina doing yoga together along with Arthur, Buster, Francine, Muffy, and D.W..
