Stinky Goes Hollywood/Olga Gets Engaged is the fourth episode of the fourth season of the animated television show Hey Arnold! It originally aired on November 11, 2000.
In this episode, Stinky, one of Arnold's friends, lands a role on a television show called "Stinko." The show is being filmed in Hollywood, and Stinky is excited to leave his small town and become a big star. However, when Stinky arrives on set, he realizes that Hollywood is not what he expected it to be. The production team and the other actors are more interested in their own egos than in creating a good show, and Stinky feels like he doesn't fit in.
Meanwhile, Olga, Arnold's sister, comes back to town to announce that she is engaged to a wealthy businessman named Doug LeSham. Arnold is happy for his sister, but he's also skeptical of Doug's intentions. He believes that Doug might only be interested in Olga's money, and he's determined to find out the truth.
As Stinky struggles to fit in with the Hollywood crowd, he realizes that his true friends are the people back home in Hillwood. When his friends come to visit him on set and support him, Stinky gains the confidence he needs to stand up to the big-shot producers and demand that the show be made the way that he wants it.
Meanwhile, Arnold sets out to investigate Doug's past and finds out some surprising information about his sister's fiancé. When he confronts Olga with his findings, she refuses to believe him and accuses him of being jealous of her happiness. Arnold is hurt by Olga's reaction and feels like he's the only one who can see through Doug's façade.
At the end of the episode, there's a twist that ties the two storylines together and reveals the true nature of Doug LeSham. Stinky's experiences in Hollywood help him appreciate his life back in Hillwood, and Olga comes to a realization about her own relationship. The episode ends with Arnold once again proving that he's a dedicated brother and friend.
Overall, Stinky Goes Hollywood/Olga Gets Engaged is a heartwarming episode that explores the themes of friendship, loyalty, and family. It's a fun look at the glamour (and the pitfalls) of Hollywood, and it's also a poignant portrayal of the complicated relationships between siblings. Fans of Hey Arnold! are sure to enjoy this episode.
