How? You've got one week to take her down.

you're only behind by a point.

Study hard, and you can beat her easily.

You don't understand, Miss Gold.

History cost me big time.

Mrs. Tingle hates me.

Miss Tingle's a b*tch. She hates everyone.

She even hates me.

You can do this, I know you can.

I believe in you.

There's one week left, and

Trudie Tucker has built this

Leigh Ann. Trudie Tucker...

is a pale faced Harvard trust fund

twit whose good grades...

are a result of good ass kissing.

She doesn't need the scholarship. You do.

As Guidance Counselor, you've

been my pride and joy for four years.

You deserve it. You just gotta

believe in yourself, honey, that's all.

Thank you, Miss Gold.

I can't believe I'm doing extra credit.

You need it. You have one week to

bump B*tch Trudie from the throne.

You know, I don't really have

to be a writer. I mean

I could do something a little more practical.

Forget that.

You are going to be valedictorian.

You're going to get your scholarship.

You're going to go to college,

and you're going to pursue your dreams,

and I am going to see to it.

My last piece of business

before I freak to Hollywood.

I'm gonna miss you.

All right, come here, cheese ball,

and don't make me cry.

You know I'm easy.

Can we make this a three way?

What do you say?

Now, what are you two lovely ladies doing...

on this hard, wooden floor?

Seating arrangements for graduations.

You are going to graduate, aren't you?

Celebration's al ready begun. Get serious.

Be cool. That's a no no.

You want a beer? I have more.

What are you trying to do, get us expelled?

I'll have one.

Jo Lynn Okay

Now, why is it we never dated?

We did, almost, once.

We were this close to hooking up

at Mandy Kate's birthday party.

Sophomore year, when I was

still an A cup with braces.

It was kind of a disaster. That was you?

I thought that was somebody else.

And why is it we never dated?

Could you cut the alcohol?

You are so typical. Some of us

would like to graduate.

And some of us could help you do that.

What is this? Oh, just Tingle's final exam.

Where did you get that?

You're not the only brain around here.

We could get in serious trouble.

I made a copy of the original.

She'll never even know.

You sure it's authentic?

Tempting, isn't it? Sort of

brings up all those moral questions.

Slither away. Let's go.

Don't be so hasty, Leigh Ann.

You just think about it. I'll leave it right there.

What are you doing? You are such a loser.

Oh, really?

I think the race is still on

for that title, Miss Watson.

We were just

Doing seating arrangements for graduation.

Extra credit. Extra credit.

Has it come to that?

Actually, we were just
