In the town where Fergus and Fiona live, an unscrupulous businessperson opens a small shop marketing herbal supplements that have the appearance of illicit street drugs. These look-alikes are marketed as having effects similar to drugs they resembled. Several children become ill as a result. The parents of the town file a suit seeking an injunction against the business to prevent it from marketing or selling these products.
