Hank and his friends take Bobby’s scout troop on a rite of passage journey in the wilderness. The point of “The Order of the Straight Arrow” is for the kids to realize that their parents are ganging up to play jokes on them, and the joke Hank and the guys choose is to put the kids through a series of fake Native American rituals. However, Bobby takes the rituals seriously, and things become very serious indeed when, on a “snipe hunt,” Bobby accidentally clobbers an endangered whooping crane.
