Back at the Barnyard: Barnyard Idol
Overview
When it's discovered that Pig has a beautiful singing voice, Otis and the gang enter Pig in a singing competition to win the farmer a golden tractor. When Mrs. Beady loses, she is out to prove that Pig is a talking barnyard animal. Meanwhile, Pig's over-practicing causes him to lose his voice. So Otis tries to use lip synching but he doesn't know the lyrics in the song, so Pig is booed for singing terrible lyrics. In the end, Pig did win a prize (a tiny tote bag), but they couldn't keep the tractor they stole because it was illegal to steal a grand prize without approval of winning.
