To make matters worse, Ellie adopts a perpetually cheerful potbellied pig named Bunwinkle to be his baby sister. Despite the initial tension between the two, Bunwinkle quickly wins Horace's heart with her cuteness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the duo discovers that some neighborhood animals have been disappearing, they decide to use their new detective skills to solve the barnyard mystery.
