During practice, Buster throws the ball in to Sue Ellen, who kicks it over to Arthur. Francine calls for the pass, and then steps back. However, the Brain tells her that she is out of bounds. Francine protests and says that she is not over the line. Brain believes her foot was on the line and moved it. Francine accuses the Brain of cheating, but he denies her, and says that she is the one who is cheating. Meanwhile, Binky is bouncing a soccer ball on his head. Buster wishes the argument would stop, but Francine and the Brain continue to argue. Arthur gets tired and he tells everyone to finish up the practice game. Binky wants the game to finish as well because his head hurts from bouncing with the soccer ball. Now Brain has a microscope and examines Francine's foot. Francine suggests that the Brain should ask someone instead of using the microscope. He tells Arthur to make the call on what happened. He tries to say something, but Francine grabs his glasses and puts them on. Brain tells her to cut it out and that Arthur is an honest and trustworthy person. He then tells Arthur to say whatever he wanted to say. Francine agrees and states that anything will go. Arthur tries to say something again, but Brain interrupts. Francine tells Brain to stop and let Arthur call whatever he wanted to call. However, Binky's mother calls Binky for dinner and goes home. Then the practice game ends because that was the only ball they had. Arthur believes it doesn't matter who's right anymore, but then leaves. | During practice, Buster throws the ball in to Sue Ellen, who kicks it over to Arthur.

At home, Arthur tells the story to his mother while sneakingly getting an apple from the bowl. | At home, Arthur tells the story to his mother while sneakingly getting an apple from the bowl. DW then reminds him that he has to help her write a letter to Santa Claus for Christmas. Arthur thinks that's too soon because it's May. DW states that Santa Claus gets a lot of letters in December, so she's writing her list early so that she can beat the rush. Now we go to Arthur's room where he eats his apple, and then tells DW to go, but she tells him to be quiet because she's thinking. Then she tells Arthur what to write in DW's letter to Santa. He gets stressed easily, but DW thinks it should be a positive start. She also states that he's bored because he hears these things too often. Arthur happily understands and then starts to write while DW recites her letter. | ||
The next day at school, Buster tells Arthur that the Brain and Francine are still angry at each other. Arthur then goes up to them and see that they are not talking to each other. Muffy comes by and Francine asks her to pick up the pencil. She suggests to ask the Brain, but he says that she is so "Franciney". In Mr. Ratburn's class, the students are about to take a speed test. The Brain refuses to pass the test paper to Francine. Muffy hands the paper to Francine, but Arthur didn't get one. He tries to get Francine's attention, but she tells him to get it from the Brain. Then Arthur tries to get Brain's attention, but Mr. Ratburn tells Arthur to be quiet. He tries to tell Mr. Ratburn that he didn't get a test paper, but time already expired, which causes him to fail the test. Arthur is really getting tired of Francine and Brain's argument and that they better come up with a solution sooner or later, or else he will fail Math. | The next day at school, Buster tells Arthur that the Brain and Francine are still angry at each other.

At the mini golf course, things are still not going well. Francine hits the ball really hard that it causes the ball to knock over the course obstacles, even the lampposts. Then, they try tabletop hockey. Brain claims that Francine's forward is offsides, but Francine denies this because he's on a stick. Finally, they try playing Go Fish at the clubhouse. Francine becomes infuriated at the Brain and tells him, "GO FISH YOURSELF!" and throws the cards in the air. | At the mini golf course, things are still not going well.

The argument has gone too far, and Arthur is afraid that Francine and the Brain will never be friends again. Dad suggests that they will work it out themselves. The playoffs are next week, and Arthur doesn't know what's going to happen. Then | The argument has gone too far, and Arthur is afraid that Francine and the Brain will never be friends again. Dad suggests that they will work it out themselves. The playoffs are next week, and Arthur doesn't know what's going to happen. Then DW asks Arthur to revise her Christmas list by adding prices. At the soccer game, Arthur warns his team that if they keep losing, they'll be out of the playoffs. This causes Buster to get worried and choke, which he believes it convinces the Brain and Francine. However, during the game, the Brain and Francine run into each other, not playing like a team. Francine calls for a pass, but the Brain kicks it over to Arthur, causing him to scream for help again. Francine then kicks it over to Buster, where he screams and gets trampled on the play. Lakewood ends up losing again. | ||
Buster unties his bunny ears after the trample, and Arthur gets tired from all the rough play. Buster then says that they have one more game and they have to win. And that game is against, MIGHTY MOUNTAIN! They have a very bad feeling that they are going to lose. | Buster unties his bunny ears after the trample, and Arthur gets tired from all the rough play.

DW then comes up to the clubhouse and tells him that he needs to revise the list AGAIN! He gets tired of her requests and suggests to call him. But DW says that a letter is better because it will get her thoughts organized. This then gives Arthur an idea for the Brain and Francine to write apology letters to each other in order to save their relationship. | ||

However, the Brain's letter has DW's rough draft of her Christmas list. Arthur then turns it around where the apology letter is, and the Brain says that is much better. Then the arguments cease before the game and Francine and the Brain shake hands, while Arthur and Buster do the same. Now the Brain and Francine play like good teammates and pass the ball. Brain even gets a goal from Francine's pass. Then, Arthur passes the ball to Francine and the Brain, in which they bounce the ball off their heads for the game winning goal. The whole team celebrates and carries the Brain and Francine. He states that Francine is right and that just because they disagree, doesn't mean they can't be friends. However, they blame Arthur and Buster for messing up the letters. The Brain and Francine not mad at each other anymore, but they are mad at Arthur and Buster. Arthur then tells Buster that he spelled "soccer" with two K's and a Q. | ||
