Pushing Daisies Season 2 Spoilers for Episode 3

Details to the second season are slowly unveiling and I found this from a fan site similar to ours. Pushing Daisies Season 2 Episode 3 is still about Olive’s background mostly. The details are after the jump (for the benefit of those who would want to remain unspoiled) and it involves a lot more than secret agents!
We flash back to young Olive, age 9 years (20 weeks, 4 days, 11 hours, 33 minutes), fresh off her first riding lesson and completely besotted with horses. She asks her parents for an Arabian, but her request is summarily dismissed. Exhibiting a tenacity still evident in the adult Olive, the young girl decides to dig a hole to the Middle East and find a horse herself. Part way into this endeavor, she discovers a fossilized dinosaur. Young Olive trades the priceless artifact for her heart’s desire - a white Arabian horse.
Back in present day, Sister Olive, still inhabiting the nunnery, digs for truffles with Pigby, her truffle-hunting sow. One of her “sisters” turns up dead in an apparent suicide, but Olive doesn’t believe that and hires Ned and Emerson to investigate. As it turns out, the deceased wasn’t quite as devout as she seemed. With a pair of eavesdropping, gossipy nuns tripping them up, Ned, Emerson, Chuck and Olive attempt to get to the bottom of the crime before the Vatican Police - aka the Pope’s 007s - arrive.
Meanwhile, Ned is concerned that Chuck is so intent on clearing up her past while Chuck ponders her purpose in the present.
Did I read that right? Olive is caring for a sow named Pigby? Hah! That cracks me up!
