Come on. I don't buy it.
Cindy?
Hey, no freakin' way!
Come on, Quint! Don't even think|of holdin' out on me...
or I'll kill you.
## Well, I looked|all over the world ##
##And there's every|type of girl ##
Bobby!
##Leave me dancin' with myself|So let's sink another drink ##
Hi! How are you?
## 'Cause it'll give me time|to think If I had a chance... ##
- John. John.|- Go get 'im.
Cindy and Bobby's relationship|is so totally together.
He's a lawn boy.|He makes 35 cents an hour.
Listen up, dude.|The sh*t's gonna hit the fan.
- Listen!|I'm not gonna put up with it!
- We were faking, okay?|- Bullshit!
No, it was an act.|Bobby, he paid me!
Then that makes you a prostitute!
##Oh, oh, oh-ohh ##
- ##Oh, oh, oh-ohh ##|- You!
##Oh, oh, oh-ohh|Dancin' with myself ##
##Oh, oh, oh-ohh Oh, my room's|all wet with my sweat... ####
You!
Even Bobby thinks we went out.|Great, huh? Ha!
All of you thought|we were a couple. What a joke!
Ronald Miller paid me 1,000 bucks|to pretend I liked him.
What a deal, huh?
$1,000 to go out with him|for a month. This guy.
Oh, God. He bought me.
And he bought all of you.
He was sick and tired|of being a nobody.
Yeah, and he said that all of you|guys would worship him if we went out.
And I didn't believe that.|I was, like, no way!
And he was right!|No, leave me alone.
He was right. Our little plan|worked, didn't it, Ronald?
The dance. That stupid dance!
What a bunch of followers|you guys are.
I mean, at least I got...
At least I got paid.
Come on.
Ricky? John?
Get out of my house.
Uh... Yeah. We'll clear|everything up tomorrow.
Everything is cool, really.
Oh, excuse me. I'm sorry.
Excuse me.|Good night now. Excuse me.
You ready to go?
- Um... I don't know you.|- You sure knew me earlier.
I don't know|what you're talking about.
Happy New Year.
Hey, it could be worse.|We could be alone like that poor guy.
All right.
Ronald Miller... Ugh! So, anyways...
Damn, bro. He's in Siberia.
I know, man. The mutants over|there won't even go near him.
You know, I knew he was|scamming us all along.
He went from, like,|totally chic to totally geek.
Look at that. He's been banished!
He should have known that our|kind won't mix with their kind...
Our kind? Their kind? That's B.S.
He may be a moral leper now, but he|had the fast lane for four months.
Yeah, that's a good point. $250|a month for those cheerleaders...
- isn't an unwise investment.|- Yeah?
Check this out, guys.|You're gonna love this.
Incoming!
- Direct hit.|- Yow!
Didn't you take economics?|You could've had me for $49.95.
Incoming!
It's the nerd-mobile.
Yeah, right...|on automatic pilot.
Like we're not supposed to know|who's spying on us...
in the spaz-mobile.
I could've sworn that a couple of girls I|knew got very comfortable in that spaz-mobile.
Okay, this is my high score.
Dave,you can beat me!
Yeah,yeah,yeah!
You could at least|acknowledge my existence.
You think this is easy for me?
I know I was an a**hole to you|and to thousands of others.
But, Kenneth... Kenneth, it's you|I gotta straighten this out with.
Aaah!
- You sh*t on my house, man!|- I know.
Go...
- Kenneth...|- You sh*t on my house!
You sh*t on my house.
I know, Kenneth.
I know.
The quizwill cover every muscle|from the levator scapula...
to the spinalis thoracis.
- T... U... C... - It will consist of|15 multiple choices and five mini-essays.
- S... O... N.|- Your score will then account...
- T... U... C... S... O... N.|- for 20% of your final grade.
Good luck.
Hi, Cindy.
I'm sorry about having|to come in here.
But I have to talk to you.
I realize what a jerk I became.
All I ever did|was think about you,
dream about being|part of your life.
And then I got that stupid idea.
And I let it turn me|into something I'm not.
You sure did, sicko pervert!|I remember you from the dance.
- You morally depraved psycho!|- Ow!
Detention... one month!
Becky, will you please|hand me that other one?
Thanks.
- You nuked my brother.|- What?
You took him from geek status|to king status to no status.
Chuckie Miller, right?
He's resorted to sending|his messenger boy?
Boy? I see no boy here!
You think you shut me up?
I didn't? Well, let me try again.
The babe said it was good|for my complexion.
Cynthia?
Cindy?
There's a call for you on my line.|Somebody named Donald.
I don't know anybody named Donald.
- Tell him I'm out of the country or something.|- Okay.
I know she's in the country,|Mrs. Mancini. I saw her today.
Well, my daughter|doesn't know anyone named...
Ronald, is that you?
Why did you say|your name was Donald?
Uh... I guess I made a mistake. Bye-bye.
Mom, what'd he say?
First, he's a geek.
And then you start going out with him.|And then he's a geek again.
Honey, I don't know|what a geek is.
I guess, at the present time,|a geek is Ronald Miller.
Who says? Hmm?
Oh, my God!
pow!
Would you stop it?
Stop it! The neighbors, man!
Listen, all right?|Hold on!Just turn it off!
My mother was calling the police, until|I told her you had a chemical imbalance...
and you are seeking|psychiatric help!
I need to talk to you.|- Fine.
Every time I called, you were either|taking a bath, washing your hair.
Or you were out of the country.|That was a good one, by the way.
I tried to get you alone at school,|but I got a month's detention.
Yeah, you're very big|in bathrooms, aren't you?
Cindy, just hear me out.|And then I'll leave you alone. Okay?
Oh! You t... You demolished me|New Year's Eve.
But see... I realize you did me a|favor. You brought me back to reality.
All I ever wanted to do|was get close to you.
And then, when I finally got|there, it wasn't me anymore.
Cindy... Oh, Cindy.
I was just hoping we could|sort this out, you know?
The real me and the real you.|That's all.
Okay.
- But not at 6:
00 in the morning.|- Okay.I'll come back at 11:00.
I'll be washing my hair...|out of the country.
That's my favorite one.
Tell your mom I'm sorry.
Is that right?
- Good job.|- Really? Oh, my God!
- What's happening, guys?|- Hey, nerd alert, man. He's in our quadrant, too.
Kenneth Wurman with patty?|No way!
Thanks so much! I swear, I don't know|what I would have done without you. Really.
- No problem. J-Just, uh, take your|time and follow the steps. - Okay.
Kenneth Worm-man is trying to pull|a Ronald McDonald Miller scam on us.
- He's probably trying to pay her off.|- Relax, man. He's harmless.
I'm sending him back|to the minor leagues.
- Be cool, man.|- Hey, calm down.
Oh, man. He's gonna make|a fool of himself.
- Hey, what do you think you're doing over|here, twimp? - H-Helping her with some math.
- No, bullshit. You're trying to pull a Ronald Miller scam.|- A what?
You better get back to your own side, or I'm|gonna send you back to Geeksville in a milk carton!
Would you guys do something?
- Oh, return of the living dread.|- Why don't you lay off?
- Why don't you go back where you belong, hosehead?|- Take your hands off Kenneth.
