Background[]

Bud arrives at the Bundy Residence with Petal. He introduces her to his father, Al Bundy and reveals that he met her while attending their quantum physics class. He then tells his father to hold his calls and indicates that they are going up to his room to have sex. As the couple gets to the staircase, Al calls out to Petal and asks if she knows that they are going up to his bedroom. She smiles and says yes.

Upon hearing her answer, Al, having a proud fatherly moment, looks at Bud and opens his arms. Bud smiles and come down to hug his father, sharing a rare father-son moment. Petal then notices several shoes and shoe boxes on the counter and comments on how nice they look.

Al costing his son a chance at sex with Petal as she admires the shoes that Al is selling

As Al is in the middle of a competition to sell shoes to secure a vacation to Hawaii, he perks up at seeing a chance to sell even more shoes to Petal. Meanwhile, Bud realizes that he is about to lose out on having sex due to Al's interference. He tells Al not to do anything, but he ignores Bud and begins walking over, as Bud desperately clings onto Al and pleads with him to stop.

The next day, a bitter looking Bud is sitting on the couch between Kelly Bundy and Peggy Bundy, indicating that he didn't get to have sex with Petal. Kelly tries to help him get over it by telling him that one girl in the grand scheme of life is nothing, before pointing it that in Bud's case, its the rare exception. A moment later, Al arrives home and informs his family that he won and will be enjoying going to Hawaii by himself in first class. Peggy then surprises him by telling him that she was able to exchange his first class plane ticket behind his back for four standby tickets so the entire family could go. As the family begins to jump and cheer (while leaving Al bewildered) Bud gives Al a smug look and informs him that it was his idea to make the exchange, implying that this was his way of getting revenge for costing him a night of sex with Petal.
