With a cast of costume-clad townies, massive props and a 20-foot robot rabbit - "Up With Bunnies" is hatched! There's only one thing missing - the star of the show! When news spreads that singing sensation Cassie Cassava (Melinda Dolittle) is arriving to perform in her hometown church's Easter service, Marlee gets worried.
