Someone has stolen the giant charity box from the Shpittsburgh synagogue, and Agent Emes is called upon to find the culprit.  Someone quite unexpected is fingered by the police as the prime suspect, and Agent E must crack the case before the wrong person is imprisoned for good! 

Told in classic “whodunit” form, “The Case of the Missing Pushka” offers up a number of likely suspects, before Agent Emes solves the case and gets the Pushka back.

This episode explores the Jewish concept of charity, as well as the theme of honoring one’s parents. Also touched on is the idea of giving another the benefit of the doubt whenever possible.
