It was a sad day in Mayberry. The annual town fair and pie eating contest was going to take place on
Saturday afternoon at 3:00 p.m. Aunt Bee made five blueberry pies. (And, we all know about how good
Aunt Bees pies are). The pies were baked on Friday and left on the counter to cool. Aunt Bee made
dinner for Opie and Andy, watched some television and went on to bed. Sheriff Andy Taylor said he
closed the doors and windows and saw all the pies on the counter. He was tempted to cut a piece, but
he knew Aunt Bee would be very unhappy, to say the least, so he closed the kitchen light and went to
bed. In the morning, Sheriff Taylor told this reporter, that he heard Aunt Bee scream from the kitchen.
Andy and Opie both ran downstairs to see what happened. They found Aunt Bee looking at five empty
pie plates. She was beside herself. Aunt Bee questioned Opie and Andy if they ate the pies. She was
so mad that she even looked in their bedrooms. Aunt Bee could not believe that five pies could just
disappear. She made Andy visit everyone who knew she made the pies and interrogate them and see
if there was any blueberry evidence left behind. Andy went to Thelma Lous house first and told her
what happened. She could not believe it and, no, there was no evidence of eaten blueberry pie. Andy
asked Deputy Barney Fife to help with the search. They paid a visit to Floyd at the barber shop and
Goober and Gomer at the gas station. They even went as far as tracking down Otis (our town drunk),
but no one knew about the pies. Poor Aunt Bee! She did not want to let the contestants down, so with
the help of Thelma Lou, five more pies were made. Since, it was almost 3:00, time of the contest, Aunt
Bee, Thelma Lou, Andy and Opie brought the new pies to the contest. Since there was no time to
clean up the mess in the kitchen, Aunt Bee said they would clean when they came home. However,
when they got home cleaning the kitchen was not a priority. The priority now was getting a family of
raccoons: mom, dad and four babies off the counter that contained all the remnants from the new
blueberry pies. Moral of this story: when you check to see if every window and door is locked before
you retire for the evening make sure you include the doggie door!

BREAKING BAD? By

OF MAYBERRY? Fife
arrested them and took
them down to the station,
nothing was adding
up...Thelma Lou is so
sweet and would never
hurt a soul, Gomer and
Goober have never
committed a crime I
thought never would. Fife
took Thelma Lou into the
investigating room and
she said "It's not what you
think, I promise." Thelma
Lou explained that she
suffers from bipolar
disorder and the pill bottle
she dropped was her
medication, she was
under so much stress with
the shipment of exotic
sugar being imported from
Spain that Goober and
Gomer were supposed to
take care of that she forgot
to take her medication and
resulted in her slapping
Goober which she feels
horrible about. Fife talked
with Goober and Gomer
and the stories matched
up...just a big case of
misunderstanding and just
another day in the small
town of Mayberry
