Goliath's doghouse is damaged by lightning in a big thunder storm. Goliath is upset because his place of privacy is now gone. Davey then asks his dad for help building a doghouse for Goliath. To his surprise, Davey's dad thinks that Davey can build it himself. Davey, not wanting to take the full responsibility tries to do a crummy job re-building the dog house so that his dad will ""have to"" help him. As Davey's dad sees the monstrosity, he asks Davey if he really cares for Goliath and that that care should be his motivation for building the doghouse right. Finally Davey's care takes over and the inspiration that Jesus was a carpenter and didn't do crummy work inspires Davey to build Goliath a very nice doghouse dreamhouse.
