He gives a free sample to Jughead in hopes that Jug will talk it up and promote it. The ball has Jughead's face painted on it and Jug loves it.

With tensions mounting in Samantha and Bingo's romance as their dads begin to get along, Bingo is in need of some sage advice: enter Jughead Jones, Bingo's cousin! Can he help salvage their romance and put an end to their fathers' constant feuding? Maybe after lunch and a long nap.
