Synopsis: After declaiming about the unfairness of having a learner's permit without ready access to a car, Mike tries to get Elly to allow him to drive the new car by permitting her to make the first dent. He is too dumb to realize that he's not helping his own case.
Summary: This is because Elly and John forget that they tried to sell the farm by telling him he could drive the truck. Hmmm. I wonder if they thought that it was okay because on the farm, there was nothing to hit.
