Eddie (Ken Osmond) nominates Wally (Tony Dow) for the office of sophomore class president. Wally's opponent is Lumpy Rutherford (Frank Bank), whose dad, Fred (Richard Deacon), will be even more insufferable than ever if Lumpy wins. To avoid this, Wally's dad, Ward (Hugh Beaumont), fills his son with all sorts of sage advice about waging an effective campaign. The result -- Wally, who up until now had treated the whole election as a lark, is now so doggedly serious in his efforts to win that his friends -- including Eddie! -- end up dropping their support.
