Especially when he learns Mike and Carol were able to afford more expensive gifts. Ben frets over his predicament to Mike, who gives him a can and asks him to go out and collect money from his neighbors, claiming it's for charity. Come Jason's birthday, Ben presents him with an automatic 35-mm camera. Wow, Jason's excited that he got something he also wanted. But also wow, since he wonders how Ben could afford something so very expensive. Even under questioning, Ben doesn't answer, but Mike lets slip what happened. Jason's upset, especially since Mike gave his impressionable brother some non-serious advice that ended up getting taken seriously, and as a result, ended with the theft of cash. Jason takes Ben to return the money. Oh, that ashtray ... Ben finally musters up the courage to give his father the heart sculpture; Jason is truly touched, especially since it can be used as an ashtray (and because of its shape, can be used to encourage his patients who smoke to quit the habit).

Eventually, it comes to the night before the big history exam, and Mike decides the only way he will pass the test (and thus, have a fighting chance to pass the class) is to write crib notes on his shoes. Principal DeWitt gives the test, to which Mike somehow knows the answers without having to look at his shoes. He's astounded that, even under extreme pressure to memorize the material, he knows the answers. Then, as he's bragging about his success, he blows it; he puts his feet up on an adjacdent desk to relax, and DeWitt sees the crib notes. Jason and Maggie are called to the school, and Mike explains that he really did know the answers; he absorbed the material as he was writing the information on his shoes.
