Lassie

Scott and Lassie stay with Neeka and his dad Dean Chalmers for a couple of days, and Neeka has the weekend to finish a biology report. While collecting leaves, he and Lassie meet Mr. Bowers, a lonely man who limps due to an injury and has turned his back on society. After Lassie and Neeka uncover Mr. Bowers' scientific knowledge and help him when he is hurt, Mr. Bowers realises he wants human company after all.
