Episode 4

G1 get a punctuation exercise returned to them by Mitchell. Nearly everyone performs abysmally. Simon has been consistently late for school, and Trisha is given the task of calling for him every morning as they live in the same area (his parents leave for work early). The staff have called a halt to all extracurricular activities until the timetable confusion has been sorted. The next day, Simon keeps Trisha waiting and they are BOTH late for registration. In class Simon is asked to read, he says he can't as his glasses are broken. But we know he doesn't wear glasses.... Cathy's older brother Gary chats up Trisha at a lunchtime school disco. Garfield tries to get the disco stopped but Mitchell confirms that Llewellyn has approved it. Penny is appointed as the first year school council representative. There is a notice on the changing room door announcing that first year football practice has been canceled. But Simon goes into the changing room. He meets Gary who tells him that Trisha doesn't like calling on him, and threatens that it'd better stop. Hughes overhears this conversation as he is outside the changing room. The next day Simon leaves before Trisha arrives for him. She is late for school. Simon ignores Trisha after she confronts him about not waiting. Hughes tells Trisha what he heared. She reacts with anger and says "Just wait 'til I see that Gary Hargreaves!"
