Wally goes out for the freshman football team, even though June fears he'll get "wrecked". While talking with the other guys after a game, Eddie announces he's shaving. Richard says that he is as well. This gets Wally wanting to try to do so himself, but he winds up cutting himself badly. The bandages on his face at dinner alert his parents to what is going on. Ward thinks he's talked Wally out of shaving at this point in time, but in fact he's argued for the case by telling Wally that daily shaving makes one's beard stiffer and thus means you may need to continue shaving.
When Ward needs to shave one night and can't find his razor he finds Wally in the middle of shaving himself and Ward blows his top at Wally. What Ward failed to take into account is that Eddie Haskell is standing right next to Wally as this is happening, and Eddie has never failed to turn another fellow's bad moment into an opportunity to make fun of him in front of other people, even if it is his best friend. All the guys know about what happened thanks to Eddie, and Wally is getting the business at school and in the locker room.
Ward thinks Wally's bad mood and attitude are because he made him quit shaving, but Beaver knows the truth and let's his dad know that he made a fool out of him in front of the worst possible person. Ward comes up with a clever solution to resolve the situation. What is that solution? Watch and find out.
Eddie sure took Wally's friendship for granted over the years. I know why Eddie followed Wally around, what I can't figure out is why Wally reciprocated the friendship. Ward has a good moment talking to Wally about the measure of a man being what's on the inside, not what's on his chin.
