Brick's teachers tell Frankie and Mike that Brick tested as "socially challenged" -- so Mike thinks basketball is the answer to help Brick interact with others. When that fails, Mike enters the neighborhood block-party lawnmower contest and discovers that Brick has a talent for souping up machines. Meanwhile Frankie joins the booster club to raise money for new football jerseys for Axl's team -- but Axl refuses to give his old one to her.
