He helps them prepare for an upcoming dressage show, but refuses to read direction. Chloe and Zoey think that he is illiterate, but it is revealed that he is, instead, dyslexic, as is Will.
A Native American girl and her horse come for a visit at Horseland. Zoey especially jumps to conclusions, which leads to a rivalry for a leadership role between the two girls.
