* FreeRangeChildren: Deconstructed. Sam, Joe, and David go to the barn without telling their parents, and when they're trapped inside, their parents are all absolutely terrified as they're wondering where their children are. And when the three kids barely escape the fire, Sam apologizes about not listening to them and getting them into all this trouble.

They shout for Sam to hurry because it's getting hard to see and breathe with the smoke. Nevertheless, they manage to work together to get Sam safely outside where she can unlock the door and free them. They cough outside just as the adults come with the fire department, and presumably, the boys get treatment for smoke inhalation. By the end of the episode a few days later, they're fine.

Originally aired on November 15, 1995.
Wanda tells the kids about Blackbeard's horseshoe, which is said to be hidden inside the condemned Trumbull Barn. Sam wants to find it, and she persuades the boys to join her. Her adventurous spirit reminds Wishbone of Jim Hawkins in ''Literature/TreasureIsland'' by Creator/RobertLouisStevenson.
Notably, this version predates ''Film/MuppetTreasureIsland'' by just three months. This is also one of the episodes that was written by Creator/MoRocca.
One tie-in book was released -- ''The Adventures of Wishbone'' #2: ''Salty Dog'', a straight adaptation of the episode.
