The finals of the Junior Giant Slalom ski event are about to start. Buddy sets a new course record and Red Jones steps to the forefront to take all the glory for himself, as if he were responsible for Buddy's win. When it's Dick's turn, he also, sets a new course record. Red tries to declare the timers incorrect, but Dick's win stands. Red has to eat his racoon cap in front of all the spectators and uses it as a photo-op for himself. He didn't really eat the cap, there was a steak hidden underneath. Red now plans to "discover" Flagpole for his basketball ability and to teach Chuck a lesson.
