==Plot== | ==Plot== | ||
Muffy has become obsessed [http://arthur.wikia.com/wiki/World_Girl World Girl] dolls. Each doll is dressed in the national costume of a particular country, and comes with accessories related to that country. There is also a book accompanying each doll. Sue Ellen has one World Girl doll, Pema from Tibet. When they discover a World Girl World store is opening, Muffy and Sue Ellen invite Francine to come along with them. | |||
However, nothing really works out. Sue Ellen is interested in purchasing an accessory for her doll, but when it becomes discontinued (including its whole country), she decides on another solution. Francine ends up buying a doll (so she can get the book she came with), and a new "country" is opened every time the girls turn their backs. Later, they discover that the "Doll Hospital" leads to a secret factory where a machine copies each World Girl doll and just changes the outfits, exposing World Girl World as "a scam to sell worthless dolls". | |||
