Steven is working on a drawing of his dad, and runs eagerly down to show the Gems his work. He explains to them that it's for flyers to advertise that Greg is giving guitar lessons. The Gems, still lacking a grasp of human idioms, don't entirely understand why the poster looks as it does. Amethyst asks what the cartoon lines for Greg's teeth are. Pearl asks what the lighting bolts are for.

The name of the restaurant is Big Donut D-O-N-U-T. I went back and looked at how it is spelled on the signage. Doughnut is an accepted alternate spelling for the food but the restaurant is D-O-N-U-T. :)

Steven walks off muttering to himself, and before long, has reloaded the T-shirt cannon. He begins firing at the gathering on the boardwalk where Mayor Dewey is trying to do a spontaneous, off-the-cuff speech about dedicating a new bench. The T-shirts in this barrage, though, are Buck's childish and innocent, love-driven artwork from before: A picture of Mayor Dewey with "Elect My Dad" in Buck's childish hand.

Steven and Buck talk for a moment about the flyers. Seeing the art, Buck says it would make excellent T-shirts. He and Steven high five on it, and head to the Dewey house. Mayor Dewey, who is working on his re-election campaign. He cheerfully explains he's been doing this for years, and runs across a drawing Buck did when he was little. It's an equally amateurish drawing of Mayor Dewey, and Buck is immediately embarrassed by his dad, who is trying so hard the way kids talk. He shoves his dad out then gets to work with Steven.

To Steven's dismay, though, nobody is coming by It's A Wash for lessons. They're coming by for selfies and driving by to honk at him and compliment him, but no lessons. Steven talks to Buck and says they have to stop promoting the shirts because they're not getting Greg any business. Buck replies this was never the point. The shirts were meant to be funny because Steven's art is so naive and innocent, from love for his father. But he doesn't seem to care or understand that Steven is upset about his father not getting any business.

He rushes home to the gems, saying it's an emergency. They ask what the problem is.

Steven and Buck Dewey make t-shirts together.

Steven is working on a drawing of his dad, and runs eagerly down to show the Gems his work. He explains to them that it's for flyers to advertise that Greg is giving guitar lessons. The Gems, still lacking a grasp of human idioms don't entirely understand why the poster looks as it does. Amethyst asks what the cartoon lines for Greg's teeth are. Pearl asks what the lighting bolts are for.

-->'''Steven:''' I wanted to show how my dad rocks on the guitar!\\
'''Garnet:''' Then you should have rocks falling out of the guitar.\\
'''Steven:''': It's a little too late for notes. This is permanent marker.

Steven goes to the Big Donut to start posting his flyers. As he is about to begin, Buck Dewey arrives, and looks at the selections. He asks for a caprese salad, which the Big Donut does not carry. Lars is still desperate to impress the Cool Kids by his immediate offer to get Buck a salad.

Steven and Buck talk for a moment about the flyers. Seeing the art, Buck says it would make excellent T-shirts. He and Steven high five on it, and head to the Dewey house. Mayor Dewey, who is working on his re-election campaign. He cheerfully explains he's been doing this for years, and runs across a drawing Buck did when he was little. It's an equally amateurish drawing of Mayor Dewey, and Buck is immediately embarrassed by his dad, who is trying so hard the way kids talk. He shoves his dad out then gets to work with Steven.

Steven asks how to get the T-shirts out, and Buck decides they have to be radical about it. They get a T-shirt cannon and fire them at Sour Cream, Ronaldo, and Lars. Jenny Pizza finds one as well, and despite Kiki's misgivings, thinks the shirt is hilarious and fun. Buck and Steven share a toast of pizza that the shirts are a success.

To Steven's dismay, though, nobody is coming by It's A Wash for lessons. They're coming by for selfies and driving by to honk at him and compliment him, but no lessons. Steven talks to Buck and says they have to stop promoting the shirts because they're not getting Greg any business. Buck replies this was never the point.
