The Love Rowboat

The Love Rowboat is the fourteenth episode from Season 1.

Plot
Dennis and his parents are going away to the lake for a fishing vacation. Henry is pleased not to have to deal with the traffic or the worries, and Dennis is especially pleased to get away from Margaret for that period of time.... or so he thought.

As soon as they arrive at the lake, Alice and Dennis listen to the country sounds, only for latter to hear a familiar voice. Much to Dennis' dismay, the Wades are taking a fishing vacation in the same location. As happy as Margaret is to see Dennis, Dennis is not so happy to see her, to which he replies "Is a worm happy to see a fish?"

Margaret spots a rowboat and convinces Dennis to go on a "moonlight cruise" with her. When Dennis refuses to go along with her, Margaret claims there's a monster in the lake, to which Dennis changes his mind and goes along with her. Little did Dennis know that Margaret was using reverse psychology on him.

When Dennis has trouble taking Margaret's rowing orders, they change places and Margaret has trouble rowing, to which she claims she's a bad rower. Dennis agrees to go back to rowing when Margaret admits there's no lake monster. But little did either of them know.... there is a lake monster! Margaret rows as fast as she could away from the monster.

Once the two reach the middle of a forest, Dennis tells Margaret she was wrong about one thing, and right about another; Margaret was wrong about being a bad rower, and right about there being a lake monster. Margaret noticed that she and Dennis are alone, much to her delight, only for Dennis to vote for being lost.

Suddenly, Dennis notices some pirates burying a treasure chest. Margaret wonders how there could be pirates, to which Dennis reminds her there was a sea monster. So Dennis goes down to the buried treasure to dig it out, only for the pirates to return so soon, prompting Dennis to get himself and Margaret away from there and the pirates to give chase.

Once they reach a cliff, Dennis grabs a vine, grabs Margaret, and they both swing to the other side. Margaret believes they're safe, only for Dennis to find cavemen giving chase to them. The two kids run toward some boulders, which start rolling towards them. They get out of the way and the cavemen run back to where they came from.

While Dennis jumped to the side, Margaret hung from a tree on the edge of the cliff. Dennis tries to lift Margaret back up. Since Dennis couldn't lift her just by her arm, he grabs her by the ringlet and succeeds in pulling her back to safety. Once the cavemen come back, Dennis and Margaret climb the cliff, and Dennis sees something that looks like a vine. Dennis jumps to the "vine", and Margaret tries to jump to it, only to fall, but luckily, grabs hold of Dennis' leg. As it turns out, the "vine" was a dinosaur.

The two kids make a run for it, and were about to be surrounded by pirates and cavemen, only for a volcano to erupt, giving them another chance to get away. Once Dennis and Margaret reach a river of logs, they jump on, bouncing up and down on different sides. When they reach the end of a waterfall, they land near a pride of lions who are fast asleep. They sneak across the lions, only for Margaret to accidentally tread on a lion's tail, causing him to wake up and roar.

Dennis and Margaret go into a cave, only to find a skeleton, ghosts, a witch, and Frankenstein's monster. The kids run out of the cave's end, only to run into their parents. They explain what they saw, only for the pirates and cavemen to come out of the cave. Alice explains to Dennis that they were in an amusement park called "Crazyland", and that the pirates and cavemen were actors, and the dinosaur, sea monster, and scary supernatural beings were mechanics.

Henry explains to Dennis that once he's older, he'll realize what's real and what's not, only to hear a dinosaur roar, prompting him to scream and land in Alice's arms.
