While Jodie is preparing for a giant "ribbon-sale", Mrs. Pennypacker is about to go to the opera. Then Mort shows up with two tickets to go to it with Muffy. Waldo also shows up with a machine that will allow Jeff to go outside the store for a few hours without turning into a mannequin. But while they're gone, Jodie and Sam must hold onto the machine and follow special instructions or Jeff will be a mannequin forever. They are happy to do it for him, who is about to go to the opera with Waldo. But when Harvey Hardcassel from head office shows up to inspect the store, they may be in trouble so the others, including Jeff, decide to stay and help them. They show up an opera they imagine called "The Rainmakers" in which they are two apple farmers who travel to the clouds and request rain. The title characters include Jeff as lightning, Mrs. Pennypacker as the wind, Muffy and Mort as pitter and patter, and Harvey as thunder.
