Peter fears he will be grounded and miss an upcoming camping trip after breaking Carol's clay vase while playing ball in the house. The other kids conspire to cover up his actions and assist in gluing the vase back together. The damage nevertheless comes to light when water leaks through the vase's glued cracks and onto the dinner table. All of the kids except Peter confess. The parents realize what has happened and decree that Peter must decide the kids' punishments, and take Peter shopping for a new lantern for his camping trip, hoping he will confess, but instead Peter takes the lantern. His conscience finally catches up with him and he admits to breaking the vase, voluntarily decides not to go camping, and does all of the chores he had handed out to the others as punishment.
