Mrs. Peters says that the extra-clever Pee Wees can combine their hobbies with the program the Scouts will perform for Grandparents Day, but every hobby Molly starts turns into disaster.
Moviemakers are coming to town to film the story of Columbus. Molly wants to be a star. So do the other Pee Wee Scouts, but they have been cast as extras. Can they make the director notice them?.
The Pee Wee Scouts plan a trip to the animal shelter, but Sonny is afraid of dogs, Tracy is allergic, and Rachel ends up in a lake; so the group decides the best way to help is to raise money with a rummage sale.
The Pee Wee scouts are digging through people's trash and storing old light bulbs and egg cartons behind Molly's garage. The work is hard but Mrs. Peters is offering a prize to the scout who does the most creative thing with trash.
