Cardigan the moose stops to smell an apple pie; the next thing he knows, he's on trial for stealing it. When the observant judge calls for a visit to the scene of the crime, Cardigan is exonerated. It's a letdown that the clues to what happened are fairly obvious, but Egan's fans will appreciate his droll humor and deadpan ink and watercolor drawings.
