Complete story — includes the ending

At school, Marcia is approached by a television news reporter Ken Jones (playing himself in a cameo) doing a story on the women's liberation movement. Greg watches the news report and tries to rebut his sister's comments. Marcia decides to make a point by declaring that she is joining the all-male Frontier Scouts to prove she is more than capable of completing the initiation tasks. Too old to join Marcia's Sunflower Girls in attempt at retaliation, Greg enlists Peter to join in his place. While Peter's attempt to sell cookies wilts under his gross embarrassment, Marcia proves she is well suited to join the Frontier Scouts by passing all the tests. Marcia ultimately does not join; she just wanted to make her point known.
