Little Archie Andrews is in his usual trouble at school, but when Principal Weatherbee tracks him down after class, he’s surprised to see the boy helping others instead of causing mischief. As the principal follows Little Archie home, he witnesses a series of small, kind acts that challenge everything he thought he knew about the troublemaker.
When gas from an un-named inventor’s device sends Little Archie Andrews hurtling back in time, he wakes up as a cabin boy on Blackbeard’s ship, caught in a world of plunder and peril. With Blackbeard plotting to destroy Captain Morgan’s vessel, Little Archie must outwit the pirates and find a way home—before the past becomes his permanent prison.
In "Go Cart Go!", Little Archie Andrews and Ambrose Pipps find themselves in a whirlwind of chaos after crafting a kite tail from sausages at the supermarket—only to leap into a shopping cart and careen through the streets, with Mary Andrews, Little Reggie Mantle, and Little Jughead Jones watching in stunned disbelief. As the cart hurtles down the sidewalk, the boys' wild ride sends shoppers scattering and draws the attention of Officer McNickle, while an un-named old man just shakes his head at the madness unfolding before him.
When Little Veronica Lodge vanishes from her bedroom in the middle of the night, Little Archie Andrews is the only one who remembers her last words—and the only one who notices the strange clue left behind. With the police stumped and Mr. Lodge in shock, Archie follows a hunch that leads him to a hidden passage in the Lodge mansion, where secrets long buried may hold the key to Ronnie’s disappearance.
In "Who's Guilty," Little Archie Andrews is left alone with the last slice of chocolate cake after a dramatic courtroom performance on TV—only to be called away by the phone. When he returns, the cake is gone, leaving his family—Fred, Mary, and even Spotty—each quietly wrestling with their own guilty consciences, though none will admit to taking it.
