There's no time to wonder, because Rube and his two best friends, Boob and Pearl, are busy planning Pearl's campaign for class president. With the Switcheroo Dance a weekend before the big election, Pearl's path to victory is set. That is, until a new mystery strikes the town. Rube is eager to bring Zach into the fold, but Boob and Pearl can't help but wonder if Rube's mysterious new friend is hiding something . . . will Rube get his mojo back in time to unravel the mystery and save Pearl's campaign?
