Synopsis
When Wally informs his parents that he would like to buy his first car, Ward is reluctant to agree to go along with his son's plan, especially after Wally lets him know he already has a car in mind that he'd like to buy. It is only after Wally agrees to talk to Ward's insurance agent, that Ward agrees to the big purchase, but with a few conditions involved: Wally has to maintain his grades in school and Ward wants to make sure it runs safely.
