At that farm of Punky's pen pal Judy, Margaux's prissiness causes problems. Hearing the others talk about her, she tries to do a make-good by cleaning the farm's prize pig Lancelot. In the process, Lancelot escapes from his pen just before his entry into the state fair. Every little girl in the neighborhood is entering their mom in a mother-daughter contest...everyone except motherless Punky, that is. Glomer creates a mother for her, but Punky becomes brusque about it, feeling that she and Henry get along just fine. Besides, the glomley-created mother has uncontrolled glomley powers.
