Summary
One day, at the Midtown Mall, near the space that Henry's studio occupies, Punky befriends a pig that's being used as part of a display for a farmer named Jimmy John (James Hampton). But Pinky the pig is a visual aid for different pork cuts, and is scheduled to be butchered. Punky doesn't want Pinky to die, but Punky's attempts to rile the crowd and appeal to Henry both fail miserably, so she turns to her friends and forms a plan to steal Pinky in order to save her life.

In the face of Punky's pleas, Henry thinks on the spot, and convinces Jimmy John to feature Pinky in an ad campaign.
