Mr. Cilia, the chemistry teacher, pairs off students for lab work in his classroom. Courtney and Dodie, Miranda and Macie and Ginger with soccer jock Ian Richton. Ian starts paying attention to Ginger and she starts to fall for him but Darren overhears Ian bragging to his buddy about using Ginger to do all the work and getting an easy A. Carl, Hoodsey and Brandon compete for the privilege of playing a glockenspiel solo for Ludlow Krantz...a former student at Lucky Jr. whom Carl and Hoodsey idolize.
