In an attempt to show up Ned Flanders, Homer pits Bart against Ned's son, Todd, in a miniature golf competition.

Bart and Todd Flanders compete in a miniature golf tournament, which brings out the competitive sides of their fathers and leads them to have a bet on the tournament: The father of "the boy who doesn't win" must mow the other one's lawn while wearing his wife's Sunday dress.

Overcome with jealousy at Ned Flanders's affluent lifestyle and affectionate family, Homer paints him as a snobbish jerk to the rest of his family and looks eagerly for an opportunity to show him up. He finds it in an upcoming miniature golf tournament, and enters Bart against Ned's son Todd.—crouchbk

Ned Flanders has put in a new bar in his basement, and invites Homer over. However, the entire time, Homer just stews at Ned's standard of living, as well as the calm relationship Ned has with one of his sons. When Homer raises his voice, Ned 'politely' raises his voice, and asks Homer to leave.

His attitude bugs Ned, who then calls Reverend Lovejoy for advice. Taking Lovejoy's advice, Ned pens a note to Homer regarding how he feels, but his notations (such as "you are my brother," and "I love you") just give Homer and the kids a good laugh.

Homer and Bart then decide to go out for milkshakes and miniature golf. Running into Ned and his son Todd at the same course, the groups see an upcoming miniature golf tournament ad, and Homer decides to enter Bart to show off to Ned that Bart can be just as good.

Bart is rather upset at being used as a pawn, but Lisa decides to help him train.

Soon after, Homer then challenges Ned to a wager. After annoying Ned, Homer sets the stakes: the father of the boy who doesn't win, has to mow the lawn in his wife's Sunday dress.

When Bart and Todd enter the golf game, they soon end up tied by the time they make it to the 18th hole. However, both boys decide they don't want to keep playing, and call for a draw.

Ned finds it a good show of sportsmanship, but Homer claims that since they both lost, both he and Ned have to do the loser's business.

Though Homer hopes it will humiliate Ned, Ned instead finds the experience reminds him of his college days.
