Synopsis

Lucas and Hercules are planning to attend a masquerade. While trying to decide what to wear, Lucas jots down phone messages as they come in. After a call from the grocery store concerning the beef heart Mrs. Maxwell had asked about, Lucas scribbles the single sentence, “Heart about gone.” Lucas dad had his physical that day and when Dr. Brown calls the Maxwell home, Lucas writes, “Will stop at 7:30, Dr. Brown.” A message from another doctor about Courtney's cold, Lucas notes, “Coffin should be over by 7:45.” Put them all together—they spell trouble! Laugh tops laugh until Mr. Maxwell finds out the truth.
