Go fish.
Really?
I thought I had you.
out camping.
This has been great.
Yeah, just don't tell my parents
we snuck out here.
I would totally
get grounded.
You got it.
Any queens?
Nope! Go fish!
That was weird.
Just got quiet all of a sudden.
What was that?
I don't know.
A bear maybe?
A bear?
I haven't seen a bear before.
Let's go check it out.
Cool. Let's do this, bro!
Whoa, whoa, whoa. you said
this wasn't a scary story.
- Did I?
- This is a scary story?
No...
I don't know, the dialogue
seems pretty scary.
Pshh! Shall I continue?
"Let's do this, bro!"
Where was I?
Oh, yeah Donny
had never seen a bear,
so he asked Bobby
to go see it with him.
Elizabeth did not think
it was a good idea.
Donny Phillips, I do not think
that is a good idea.
Donny Phillips? As in our science
teacher, Mr. Donald Phillips?
Yeah, But he was
way younger then.
Donny Phillips, I do not think
that is a good idea.
All right, now,
stop interrupting.
I want to finish this story.
Where was I?
Donny said, "We'll be fine.
Ain't nothing out there
that can scare us!"
Famous last words.
Do you see anything yet?
- No, you?
- Nah.
Bobby? Donny?
I don't see your lights.
Where are you?
And that is the legend
of Foggy River.
- Lame.
- Whatever.
Did the monster get them?
What? No, they scared it away.
But Mr. Phillips
swore it was real.
After a while, the other two
said that it was fake.
So Mr. Phillips became
a local joke.
That's why he became
a science teacher.
So the monster wasn't real?
No. Well, I wouldn't say that.
I still believe
he roams the woods.
Like the ones behind your house!
Great, now, he's gonna have
nightmares forever.
What? You wanted me
to tell the story, so I did.
You said it wasn't scary.
Come on, it wasn't that scary.
Everything okay in here?
- Yes, Dad.
- We heard a scream.
Yeah, that was just me telling
them the Legend of Foggy River.
Foggy River? Are you
trying to scare my kids?
- Not intentionally.
- I'm not scared.
I know you're not,
my little man,
for bed, so, come on.
Yes, ma'am.
See ya, buddy.
Goodnight, Mr. and Mrs. Parker.
- Good night, Dylan.
- Good night Alex.
Good night, buddy.
What? What?
What happened?
The monster's in my room.
- What monster?
- The monster from Dylan's story.
You're seeing
monsters again?
It was just a stupid story,
it's not real.
Can I sleep with you tonight?
Fine.
Just for tonight.
But... but don't keep me up,
all right?
I promise.
Good night.
Can I sleep with you?
Sure.
What?
Alex,
what are you doing?
You're gonna be
late for school.
Huh? What time is it?
It's 7:
34.Oh, no!
Based on the sound
of the footsteps,
I can only hypothesize
that Mr. Parker has decided
to grace us
with his presence today.
Mr. Parker,
so nice of you to join us.
Hey, Mr. Phillips.
Good morning.
Look, I can explain, okay?
Shh, shh, shh! Shh!
Unless, your explanation
includes a section in which
I win an all-expense-paid
getaway to Tahiti,
I don't want to hear it.
- But sir, I mean...
- Shh!
Does your explanation
include me winning a vacation?
- No, sir.
- Have a seat.
Yes, sir.
Oh, Mr. Parker.
While you're up and about,
why don't you take these tests
and pass them out
to your classmates.
Ladies and gentlemen,
you have until the bell rings.
You may begin... now.
Hey!
Oh, um...
- Hey, Ashley.
- Are you okay?
You look really tired.
Me?
Um, yeah, yeah, I'm good.
Did you study for this test?
Uhh, I tried.
I know what'll help.
Here, have some ice cream.
Okay, uh, where'd you
get this from?
Who wants pistachio?
Micah.
That's weird.
- Can I ask you something?
- Yeah, sure.
Why haven't you ever
asked me to hang out?
Uh...
Well...
'Cause, I thought
you wouldn't...
Say yes?
Maybe you should try.
All right.
Ashley, would you
like to hang out...
More ice cream?
Uh... sure.
Ahhh. Time's up.
I said time's up.
Please bring your completed
papers to the front.
Hey, hey, um, Ashley...
Hey, what's up?
Um...
Um, I was wondering...
Hang on.
Looks like someone just
posted a picture of you sleeping.
What? Who?
Gordon Peters.
- Gordon Peters.
- Cute pic, though.
Eight-one likes already.
You're trending.
Did you need something?
Me? No, no.
Sorry, sorry.
Okay. I'll see you later.
Thank you.
Ashley.
Having a problem,
Mr. Parker?
No, no.
Well, yes.
I seemed to have fallen asleep
instead of taking my science test.
Yes, I know.
- You do?
- Yes.
You seemed so peaceful.
I didn't want to bother
a student that thought sleeping
was more important than
taking a big science test.
Is there any way I can
make it up during my lunch?
Yes.
I'll be here grading papers.
Don't be late.
Thank you, Mr. Phillips.
I'll see you at lunch.
Yes, I'm on the edge of my chair
with anticipation.
And, Mr. Parker...
If you do really
good on the test,
maybe I'll give you
some ice cream.
Did I talk in my sleep?
Oh, yeah.
All I have to do is just get
through today without falling asleep.
What are you doing?
- Dude, don't do that.
- I couldn't help it.
You were staring
at Ashley so much,
it was borderline creepy.
I wasn't staring at Ashley.
You were totally staring.
It was embarrassing.
Hey, ladies.
I was just... zoning out.
Whatever.
Hey, I found some old movies
I was gonna watch.
- What're you doing later?
- Don't you have detention, again?
Yeah, so, we'll do it after.
We'll see.
I'm kind of tired.
Hey, how'd you do
on that science test?
Oh, no, I gotta go!
Napkin?
Thank you.
Sorry, Mr. Phillips.
Sorry?
Sorry about what?
Being late.
No, no, no.
No need to apologize.
No need to apologize
about being late, yet again.
No, no, no. Actually,
you did me a big favor.
- I did?
- Yes, you did.
In that you did not
take the test,
I don't have to grade it.
All I have to do
is put a big, old, fat zero
right on there because that's the
amount of work you did on it, right?
But, Mr. Phillips...
Butts are for sitting.
Mr. Phillips, I'm begging you.
I would really like
to take this test.
I know you would.
But unfortunately, now I have
somewhere I have to be,
and unlike you,
I don't like to be late.
We'll talk about your grade later.
Have a nice day.
Oh, and by the way, Mr. Parker,
Wherever you happen
to be going, I'd hurry up,
otherwise you will
be late again.
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
slow down.
- Gordon Peters.
- That's me.
Did I just catch you
running in the halls?
- I wasn't running...
And there's a no running policy
here at Murphy High.
But, I wasn't running.
Looks like I'm gonna
have to give you a demerit slip.
You're kidding, right?
Do I look like a comedian?
No. Just like someone who likes to
give me a hard time for no reason.
Are you talking back?
Disrespecting
the head hall monitor.
Running in the halls.
