Synopsis

Cricket’s missing dirt jar prompts the story of when the Greens left their country farm.[4]

Plot

Bill, Gloria, and Alice are looking through their finances and come to the realization that both the farm and café are doing well, essentially putting them out of debt. Suddenly, Cricket enters and screams in agony over his lost jar of dirt which he was going to show Remy. Bill, looking guilty, suddenly realizes what he has done, before lying to Cricket saying he has to attain to the "garm farden" to excuse himself, and goes out back. Alice catches him and he reveals that he accidentally threw it out when cleaning but never told Cricket about it. He finds the jar of dirt and thinks their isn’t a scratch on it, but the jar shatters and the dirt falls out and all of the dirt is blown away in the wind. To avoid upsetting Cricket, Alice decides to help Bill fool him with collecting dirt for the jar, followed by her adding paprika to it to make it look red. While that is happening, Cricket tells Remy the story of why the dirt jar is important to him.

In flashback, Cricket and Tilly are enjoying their farm life when Bill comes in to inform them that they are moving to Big City. The kids are immediately upset with Bill and hide in their room. Tilly gradually decides to go through the five stages of acceptance while Cricket decides to do everything in his power to deter Bill's plans for them to move. Cricket plans all fail, so Bill decides to try and sell the kids on why moving to Big City is good. When they still refuse and start to cry about leaving everything behind, Bill admits that they are not moving willingly as bigger farms are putting them out of business and that bills are piling up. On the day of moving, Cricket still does not want to go as he does not know what to do with himself, and runs to hide in a nearby cornfield. Bill tells Cricket that even though they will be moving someplace else, the country will always be a part of him, and has Cricket get a jar of dirt to remind him of his life in the country.

In the present, Remy is touched by Cricket's backstory that it drives him to tears. Bill gives Cricket the makeshift jar of dirt, but when he sniffs it, he realizes that it is fake because it does not have "restorative country air", and Bill is forced to come clean about what happened. Cricket apparently accepts this answer, adding that he still has a part of the country in him, but Bill comes up with another idea; he and Cricket will take a road trip back out into the country for old time's sake.

The two travel a great distance until they arrive in Smalton and see the old farm house. As Cricket runs out to collect more dirt for his jar, Bill spots a sign in front of their old house and summons Cricket over, telling him that he has another crazy idea as the sign is revealed to say "For Sale"...
