The phrase is used to conclude the scene in which Tom trades various items for "tickets" at Sunday School. The tickets are given for memorizing Bible verses, and the prize for collecting enough of them is a Bible. Tom collects enough to win the Bible (not that he really wants the Bible for its own sake, but receiving it is a chance to show off for a girl he likes and her family), and turns them in. In front of the entire congregation, he is asked to show off his obvious Bible knowledge (he must know a lot ... 2000 verses, in fact .... to have that many tickets, right?) by reciting the names of the first two disciples. Of course, since he has acquired the tickets by other means, he doesn't know the names of the first two disciples. He eventually blurts out the first two names in the Bible he is able to remember ("David and Goliath"), and the story ends with the phrase you're asking about. Basically, it means "as a kindness to Tom we're not going to recount any further details."
