Ep 4. Muffy's Car Campaign / Truth or Poll

Muffy's Car Campaign / Truth or Poll is the fourth episode of the 22nd season of Arthur. In this episode, Muffy is running for class president and decides to run a car campaign, much to the dismay of her friends, who feel that her campaign is wasteful and irresponsible. Muffy, however, argues that having a car will make her a more effective candidate, as she will be able to attend more events and get to meetings faster.

As the campaign heats up, Muffy's friends decide to investigate the environmental impact of her car campaign. They find that Muffy's car is a gas-guzzling SUV and that her campaign posters are made from non-recyclable materials. They confront Muffy about these issues, but she dismisses them, insisting that her campaign is essential for her success.

Meanwhile, Arthur and his friends are playing a game of "Truth or Poll," where they pose questions to each other and vote on the answers. As they play, they realize that polls can be manipulated to sway public opinion, and that sometimes the truth is more important than winning.

The two storylines intersect when Muffy's friends decide to use a poll to show her how much her environmental impact is hurting her campaign. However, they realize that the poll may not accurately reflect the truth, and that they need to find a more honest way to convey their message.

In the end, Muffy's friends convince her to switch to a more environmentally friendly campaign and to use public transportation instead of driving a car. Muffy is initially resistant, but ultimately realizes that her friends were right and that her campaign can still be successful without harming the environment.

The episode concludes with a message about the importance of being responsible and environmentally conscious, even when trying to achieve personal goals. It also highlights the power of honesty and truthfulness, even in the face of opposition.
