As an added gift the boys let their Mom redeem all of these chore coupons they gave her when they were kids. Back then they had no intention of actually following through with any of the coupons.

While watching home movies, Earl's dad is reminded of the time Earl put his prized car in the lake and get upset and leaves.

Mom suggests Earl put his Dad on the list.

At this point, Dad wants nothing to do with Earl or the car. So Earl works on the car, at his parents' house, alone. Eventualy, Dad comes out and they restore the car together.
