Homer’s annoyance at his sweet lovable neighbor Ned Flanders grows completely out of bounds, so that when Bart and Ned’s son Todd both show interest in miniature golf, Homer bets Flanders that his son can beat Ned’s – and the loser has to mow the lawn in his wife’s dress. Lisa helps Bart train, using the principles of Zen, and when the big day comes, the boys are evenly matched. They finally agree to tie, and Flanders offers to forget the bet, but Homer insists that they each mow the lawn in a dress - which Flanders enjoys, to Homer’s fury.
