In his third classroom adventure, Humphrey the hamster inadvertently gets a student in trouble after Humphrey's discovered outside of his cage. Controversy follows the hamster when he's accused of an outbreak of illnesses among students. Humphrey eventually clears the wronged student and is himself absolved. Though the multiple story strands don't always hang together, Humphrey's affability will sustain fans.
