After coming home late on a school night, Ward and June punish him by not allowing him to go anywhere on school nights. Beaver feels the punishment is unfair and when Eddie suggests Beaver write to an advice column but is disappointed with the response.

Beaver's school is having a clothing drive and whoever brings in the most clothes is awarded 1000 school points. June, Ward and Wally round up all the old clothes they can find and put them in a box. When Beaver picks up the box to take into school, he mistakenly thinks Ward's nearby suits for the dry cleaner are also for the clothes drive.
