Bart's dog gets a deuce

Lisa gets sick with a mumps , which is why she skips classes at school. While Marge teaches her embroidery on the hoop , Homer goes to the department store to buy several magazines for her. There he sees, and, unable to resist, acquires the very expensive and cool looking Assassins sneakers, the same as Ned Flanders . The next day, he buys a huge cookie.

Marge shows Lisa a family heirloom - Bouvier’s family blanket embroidered with previous generations, passed from mother to daughter, on which each new mistress of the blanket must embroider her story. Lisa embroiders her piece for a long time, but Santa’s Little Helper tears the blanket to shreds, and a bit later nibbles Homer's new sneakers and eats his huge, recently bought cookie. Enraged Homer wants to get rid of the dog, but the children manage to persuade their parents to first send him to a dog training school - the School of Submission.

Training Santa's Little Helper at the School of Submission is struggling because of Bart’s reluctance to use a strict collar. The night before the final exam, Bart and his dog play in the yard, thinking that this is their last hours together. This spiritual connection allows them to break down the communication barrier, and Santa’s Little Helper begins to understand Bart’s commands, and as a result, he manages to pass the exams at the dog school. In honor of this, Lisa begins to create a new blanket and on the first shred depicts a scene of the destruction of the old.
