synopsis
Ben (Jeremy Miller) consults his older siblings in order to figure out the best strategy to get a new bike from his parents. Mike (Kirk Cameron) suggest that Ben go into full "fawning" mode, a ploy that fails miserably. But our hero has better luck when he adopts the subtler approach suggested by Carol (Tracey Gold), which includes "sacrificing" his old bike in a neighborhood lottery. Featured in the cast is a very young (11 years old) Summer Phoenix.
