John, Max, Kim Anderson, Mike and Bobby drive into town and Kim goes to register Mike into the July 4th race, Bobby takes John to the general store and Max tries to talk to Mike about his poor attitude. At Beck's, Mike tries to buy supplies, but the Clerk refuses to sell him the items under Mark's orders. Greg sees Max's van and he, Thug and Thug 2 go inside Beck's and get into a fight with John, Max and Bobby. Max and John win and John makes the Clerk get the items Kim needed. Mike and Bobby go into the barn and it explodes. John, Max and Kim run to the barn. They help Bobby from under rubble and see Thug and Thug 2 running away.

Max shows Mike the lock box he found in the barn and demands to know why he stole it, but Mike walks away. Kim asks Mike why he stole the lock box, but he doesn't tell her either. Max asks Mike again why he stole the box and Bobby tells him that it was for him to get an operation. Mike tells Max and John where the mine is that the arrowhead came from. Greg blows up the mine entrance and Mike goes to the mine and finds Max and John and shows them another way out. They get into a fight with Thug, Thug 2, Carson and the miners and then drive away in Max's van. Mike makes it to the race on time and wins the race. Back at the house, Max tells Mike that he has to set a good example for the rest of the kids.
