Synopsis

"Bart, Martin and the bullies are on the run for their lives when a wilderness weekend takes a chilling turn."

Plot

Nelson, Dolph and Bart are brought to Jebediah Hill by Willie in a van as they've been sentenced to complete "The Highland Trek for Troubled Truants" by the juvenile court, while Willie was sentenced by the adult court. Right after the bullies pick on Bart, Willie announces to them they'll be joined by another one, Martin and invite them to find a treasure.

Willie leaves them to do his job as birthday dog and they start the trek to Trickly River. Bart explains he got sent there for using laundry pods on the local fountain, Dolph has stolen a heat lamp, and Nelson has stolen coins from the Love Tester at Moe's, while Martin chose to be there.

Meanwhile at home, Homer and Marge start making plans for their weekend alone, but get interrupted by Lisa, wanting to act like an only child for it, having sent Maggie to the care of Patty and Selma, and wanting to be called Jules.

The boys continue their treck mocking Skinner, when they find a baby goat in a cage and invite it to join them, calling it Axel, with Nelson thinking the "Greatest Of All Treasure" Willie was talking about was the goat. After a while, and more picking on Martin, they're reached by some people that asks for their sacrificial goat back and they start running, managing to get away.

They arrive at a canoe on the river, but Axel is scared to get on board so they divide in two groups: Bart, Martin and Axel on foot, and Nelson and Dolph on the canoe. At home, they're playing Suffragette Monopoly, and Lisa starts hurrying them when she notices they're behind schedule, threatening them to see an angry side of her they've never seen.

Nelson and Dolph start having trouble with the canoe, and reach land and a fancy air bnb, while Bart, Martin and Axel are being drenched by the rain.
