Here we see the entire known Westview High School faculty, including their newest member, Art Teacher. They’re assembled outside Moore Manor to encourage their fellow Westviewvians to show support for school funding (another favorite cause of TB’s). If “Art” could read his own dialogue balloon, he’d realize that the kind of “canvass” they’re involved is the “two-s” kind. Ha! Ha! Jim, who considers himself a real teacher, can barely hide his disdain for this bald Bohemian, while Bull sees a threat to his role as mangler of words and their meanings.

It's Called Cheating
Les vents to his “work wife” Linda about how another student tried to pass off a purchased paper as his own work. I wonder if that student’s offense was dealt with as lightly as was Maddie’s? “Everyone deserves a second chance, Cory…so here’s what I’m going to do. Your dad owns a pizza parlor…so why don’t you make a pizza in the shape of a whale?”
Shanks for Nothin'
“Totally shanked that paper“? I searched the web really hard to find the verb “shank” used in this context, but the only definitions I found involved prison stabbings, golf, and football. In any event, Maddie logs on to “plagarizepal.com” to download a readymade paper.
At Home with Harry
After a long day of pestering pizza countermen and comic-book sellers, Crazy Harry kicks back in the recliner. Maddie, who has traded Les’ yellow shirt for what appears to be a maternity top, tries in vain to sneak past him up the stairs. I guess today’s “gag” is that unless you micromanage every minute of their time, teenagers will procrastinate, which I guess is true; not funny, but true.
I Am the Eggman
Les has dispensed with the jerky questions and now proceeds to his list of demands: “I want to be able to write the screenplay.” Sure. And maybe you’d like to portray yourself while you’re at it, you egomanic? Ann has no doubt heard such highfalutin’ assumptions before, and quickly puts Les’ formidable ego in check by equating his masterwork with mere henfruit.
