But with progress come new machines, and soon teh inseparable duo are out of work. Mike believes that Mary Anne can dig as much ina a day as one hundred men can dig in a week, and the two have one last chance to prove it and save Mary Anne from the scrap heap. What happens next in the small town of Popperville is a testament to their friendship, and to old-fashioned hard work and ingenuity.
