Luther wins multiple trophies, although Zeke believes that he should act mature for his age and stop playing against younger children. Skunk, the leader of the South Gilroy Slugs, challenges Luther to a banned activity in which size does not matter: a shopping cart duel, in which they race their own carts down a hill. Deputy Dingle discovers the race and arrests Skunk rather than Luther because he considers Skunk to be older and therefore he should have known better than to participate in the race. Luther, feeling bad for Skunk, accepts responsibility for the race and becomes so infatuated with truth-telling, that he discloses several instances in which he and Zeke caused trouble. As punishment, the boys are required to clean up highway trash. Guest stars: Scott Beehner as Deputy Dingle, Hayden Byerly as Skunk Absent: Daniel Curtis Lee as Kojo | |||||||

Zeke and Luther are upset by Ron's plan to demolish their childhood hangout spot, where they have had many memories. Because Gilroy has a law allowing 16-year-olds to run for mayor, Zeke declares his candidacy so he can save the pier and Don's Donuts. Zeke wins, and makes Luther his deputy mayor. Luther is upset because Zeke did not make him Director of Bulldozers, and because the deputy mayor does not have a single job duty. When Luther spots a bulldozer on the pier, he decides to take control of it, deeming it a safety hazard. Luther accidentally crashes into Don's Donuts just after Zeke has declared it a historic building. Luther is sent to jail for damaging the building, and later works with Ron to expose Zeke's birthplace as Japan, thereby making him ineligible to serve as mayor, which local law requires to be a Gilroy-born citizen. Ron reclaims the title of mayor, and Zeke's laws are nullified, but Luther reveals that the deputy mayor shall take over in the event that the initial mayor is removed from office. Luther becomes the new mayor and reveals that Ron paid him to oust Zeke. Luther gives the money to Don to repair the donut shop. Because Luther's parents do not want him to be mayor, he is forced to name a replacement. Guest stars: David Ury as Don and Ron, Ron Fassler as Dale Davis, Craig Gellis as Chuck Stabswell | |||||||
