Jacob Two-Two — Season 1, Episode 3: Jacob Two-Two and the Purloined Hockey Card

Episode synopsis

When Jacob receives a Gummer Gormley form dad he decides this is just the lucky charm that his hapless hockey team needs to end its record-breaking losing streak. With the card in hand, all goes well, and the team is finally winning some games... until perfectly loathsome Leo Louse steals the card from Jacob's locker. Jake and Buford visit the aged Gummer Gormley to ask for another card, but he turns them down, reminding them that skill wins games, not luck. Back at the arena, Jacob pulls himself together, and he leads the team to a win, proving the old hockey legend's words to be true.
