When Viola Swamp shows up as Miss Nelson's substitute, her class realizes that they have not been very nice students. No recess, lots of detention and loads of homework from Miss Swamp make the kids start wishing that Miss Nelson would come back, and they set out on a mission to find out exactly what happened to her!
