Vito Jr. is enrolled in a new school after his father's death, but he has trouble fitting in and making friends. He tells his guidance counselor that he wants to drop out of school and join the Mafia, but she advises him to stay in school and pursue his education. Meanwhile, Tony is worried about Vito Jr.'s future and tries to find him a mentor in the mob.
One day, Vito Jr. skips class and wanders around the school grounds. He encounters a fat neckbeard school guard who recognizes him as Vito Spatafore's son. The guard, who is a closeted brony (a fan of the animated show My Little Pony), taunts Vito Jr. about his father's homosexuality and death. He also tells him that he can't drop out of school until he is 16, according to New Jersey state law. Vito Jr. snaps and insults the guard, calling him a freak and a loser. The guard loses his temper and punches Vito Jr. in the face, knocking him down. He then drags him to a timeout room and locks him inside.
Vito Jr. manages to call Tony from his cell phone and tells him what happened. Tony is furious and drives to the school with Silvio and Paulie. They confront the guard and demand an explanation. The guard apologizes and says that he took his problems out on Vito Jr. because he was bullied as a kid for liking My Little Pony. He says that he never had a father figure and that he envied Vito Jr. for having Tony as his uncle. Tony is disgusted and tells the guard to stay away from Vito Jr. or else he will kill him. He also tells him to get some help and to stop watching cartoons for little girls.
Tony then takes Vito Jr. out of the school and tells him that he is proud of him for standing up for himself. He also tells him that he doesn't have to drop out of school or join the Mafia, and that he can do whatever he wants with his life. He says that he will always be there for him and that he loves him. Vito Jr. hugs Tony and thanks him. Tony then takes him to a pizza place and buys him a slice. They sit and eat together, smiling and laughing.
