We watched us say by the Bellepisode and then next week we go to

it. Hey, talk about wegot a new double crunch cheese cheese crunch.
Treat cheese bread cheese crunch. Yougo love it. We're talking about
Model Students. Yep. It isseason two. Skip the Bliss yet the

(03:37):
Bliss episode nine ten ten? Justkidding. Sure, that's what it says
on the Internet. Internet's never wrong. Internet's never wrong. And originally I
don't know if number tenth, nineteenninety still not Born, and I went
a little something like that, Hey, hey, what is going on here?
Hey, hey, what is goingon? As far as the show,
what were talking to you through thisepisode? Just in case you didn't

(03:58):
see it, This episode is wild. It's wild by wild. I would
say that we may be bordering on, if not the most defensive episodes.
It's got to be talking. Imean, and we did Miss Bayside a
couple weeks ago. Miss Bayside doesn'twant to count to this. I would
say number one is either this orselling Lisa's lingerie as a ninth grader in

(04:21):
the first season is really bad.Those two episodes, this one and that
one. This one is this oneis net Like you what they're doing here?
You could get arrested for, likejust straight up arrested. There's just
no way around it. Well,let's not bury the lead any further.
Yeah, So here's the situation.There is a school store at bay Side

(04:44):
that we see this episode, andit employs Kelly and three Nerves, and
Kelly cares deeply for the store.Kelly cares a lot about the store.
The nerds are very passionate about thetype of items that are sold, and
it is full of nerves, Nerditems, ner classic nerd stuff like I
think I saw a rock with aclock built in. Yeah, classic Nerds

(05:06):
stuff. So Nerds stuff, neonpocket protectors, yes, and uh,
Zach walks in and he's like,oh my god, like what is going
on here? And all the friendswalking and they're like this stuff is awful.
Let's get out of and um,Zach kind of comes up with this
this grand idea that they should takeover the school store. They should take

(05:28):
over the school store, like whatif you know this was happening place?
Yeah, we can make it.What what he really needs to be?
We can make the school store greatagain? Yes? Yeah? Um,
so they uh, they go toBelding and Zach does this whole thing like,
hey, nothing is selling. Letme just take a take a stab
at this. See if I cansell some stuff. And Belding's like,

(05:51):
okay, you get one weeks,and so Zach reed does everything gets all
yes, and you know us alllooking very fun and festive, but nobody's
there because no one knows that itis no longer just Nerds stuff. That's
right, This is a classic issue. You know, you know I always

(06:15):
think about this, like when Idrive by that subway on a pleasant Burg
and it says now run by newmanagement ownership, and I'm like, Okay,
what does that do? What doesit mean? Boy still suck?
Yeah, So yeah, that's whatthese people are thinking, like new ownership,
same same stuff, same stuff.And that's where Zach gets a good
idea, we need something that bringsthese people in to the sis. That

(06:40):
idea from some light sexual harassment bySlater to Jesse which is becoming commonplace in
season two um where he says hewishes she should show up in a bathing
suit to draw people in and thatwould really work out. Um, and
that thing. Zach has a greatidea coming off that inappropriate comment from Slater,
and his idea is the girls aregoing to swim practice yea, And

(07:03):
so he sends screech in full scoobascooba gear, not snorkel your scuba gear
to take candid bikini shots of onebathing suits full. Is there a difference?
I always thought bathing susan bikini's wordstwo pieces bo b i bye means

(07:24):
two bikini is two pieces bathing suitone piece? Did you really not know
that? I thought they were interchangeable. That is bonkers. What there's there's
there's swimsuits, bikinis means two pieceshardly. What's a keenie? What I
don't think to two keenis succhini.So you're saying it means two keenis.

(07:45):
You want me to look it up? What is a keenie? What I'm
not saying? You're not correct,because clearly you are, Like bye does
mean too but uh yeah, keenieuh is a Hawaiian word you with nouns
to create, meaning meaning a pieceof clothing with some resemblance. Uh so

(08:07):
so two pieces of clothing. Yes, so it would be a class at
keenie class. Now we know itcame from a Hawaiian suffix. It's never
used by itself. Interesting, Yeah, there are other kinds. There's a
man kini, a noon kini,a face keeni, a tankini, which
is a two piece swimsuit. There'sa tank top, um, all kinds
of fun stuff in here. We'rereally doing it here on back to bay

(08:28):
side. But they're wearing bathing suits, wearing it's a clear baywatch. Baywatch
was big during this time. It'sa clear baywatch. Bit is what they're
doing and we know that because wesee the pictures. Yeah, So Screech
goes gets to pictures and they createa calendar miss Bay Side calendar essentially.
Yeah, and um they sell itand the there's line is out the door

(08:54):
and Jesse and Kellie and Lisa showup like this, it's amazing. This
is awesome until they discover the giantblown up cutouts, Yeah, life size
cutouts of the three of them intheir bathings they find they find the calendar,
they go to Belding, and Beldingis of set and yet it is

(09:18):
still not an adequate enough enough ofupsetness. Yeah, like he is bothered
by this, but still he justwants them to get rid of it.
It's at this point that the restof the episodes should be about, like
their anger and making this right,But this actually turns into if you can
believe in a platform for the girlsto do more modeling from their own volition.

(09:43):
So the pictures being taken of themwithout their knowledge and sold to high
school boys without their knowledge turns outto be a good thing. Turns out
if they would have never, Zachwould have never um completely taken advantage of
these girls. They never would havebeen able to get the next opportunity that
they get. But it's good news. You know, it's good news because

(10:05):
Johnny Creepshow comes walking in the office. Yeah, we don't know who this
guy is. Go to top buttonbuttons yes, which screams I'm a photographer.
Yes, And he says, hey, I got my hands on this
bad boy, the adult male gotmy hands on this high school swimsuit calendar,

(10:26):
and I love it. And it'sgood. It's good stuff stuff.
This is good reading. And uh, he says, I'm looking for three
girls to be in a team fashionmagazine, and I think there's some good
options in this here, some lookersand calendar, you know, again just

(10:46):
reading and uh. And Zach islike, well, god, this is
great. I will let I don'tknow why what gives him the power because
he's a man, but he says, I will let Jesse and Kelly give
you a suggestion for the three bestmodels as long as my friends let me
continue to sell this calendar and keepthe store open. Um. And they

(11:09):
are like, absolutely to get inTeam fashion magazine. You can do whatever
you But again, also no needbecause they're in the room. In the
room, they could have just saidhere we are. The Johnny creep Show
does not. I don't think hejust ever. He doesn't directly talk to
women. No, No, he'slike, if only I can do the
three to choose and Zach talks.He's like, that's a great idea.

(11:33):
Yeah. So anyways, they gophotos shooting um lacably all above board,
above board nonprofits. We are finallyout of the swimsuit a series of photos
and into just standard team fashion wallsof the school way you know, you
know those a classic outfits where youlook like a cowgirl whatnot. Well,

(11:58):
I mean it's weird because Jesse boughtall of her stuff at ARII, and
I think that was what it was. It was a weird bit because the
other two are going for a certainmatinee and she was like trying to be
an outrigger, like for like asuper Route back commercial but in Africa kind
of thing. So Johnny Creepshow comeswalking into the Max with the magazine in
hand and yells out, look atthese hot girls. That's a direct quote

(12:28):
and that I think he says,hot looking girl. Yeah, sure whatever,
Yeah, And so the girls don'tbling an eye. They come running.
They're like oh, give me acopy of that magazine. Give me
a copy. They're loving it thatthat's turned out great. Johnny creepshows like
guys, good news and keeps gettingbetter. We got another situation here,
Anniversary Mac. I got Anniversary Mac, and I need one girl. Yeah,

(12:52):
I need one girl. And thegirls all say, okay, no
matter who you pick, we're gonnabe friends. Um and he picked Kelly
of course. Yeah, I meanwhere are we at? And uh Pearls
and uh Kelly, and all thegirls get mad, but they get over
it, you know, the kindyea. It is then thrown out there

(13:13):
that this photo shoot is going totake place in Paris for a month.
For a month, yep. Sohe's just gonna and he says, I
got this site tentorary. That's right. Take it on of your parents,
have him give it a look over, and then will nineteen ninety was a
different time, man. Uh.She took that home to her parents and
she said, hey, this grownman wants to take a sophomore in high

(13:37):
school to Paris for a month.And they were like, thumbs up,
let's do it. What in theworld is happening? I mean, the
only thing I could figure is thather dad still doesn't have a job and
he's like anything to pay the manthat's brutal. So they sign off on

(13:58):
her going. They don't see thatconversation, but you know it happens.
And then Zach as you know,we really need to care about Zach here
as the person that's girls. He'svery worried. He's just worried Kelly's gonna
break up with him because she's gonnabe in Paris for a month. So
and who could blame her? Yeah, who could blame her if she did?

(14:20):
And you know what, though,Zach is a stand up guy.
He just goes and tells her abouthis feelings, doesn't he. Now the
rest of the episode is him,um getting everybody, ye gang up on
her and make her feel bad.Now. He does this, of course
with a classic Zach Norris manipulation,but he does it nonetheless. He makes
everybody, He makes everybody get youknow, he lies, he lies,

(14:43):
he lies. Oh, Kelly saidyou couldn't come to a photo shoot because
it wouldn't be professional. Yes,lie, like science project whatever it is,
it's like all these things, swimming, swimming team like. He just
makes Kelly feel miserable. About herself, yes, for going on this modeling
trip with the adult man. Sohe Zach shows up to a photo shoot.

(15:05):
I don't know what this photo shootsfor. It's not in Paris,
but it's happening. And Zach showsup nary a friend in sight, and
Kelly's like, where's the friends.Johnny creep Show goes walking off. He's
got to get stuff in his cameraor whenever. Yeah, he's got to
reload film and stuff stuff, andh Zach is like everybody's just super mad,

(15:26):
like they just they're so upset andthey just couldn't couldn't do it,
like they're bad about you know,you did, ditching out on the school
project and the swimming and the blahblah blah, and so obviously Kelly,
poor girl, feels awful. AsJohnny Creepshow comes back over notices this,
she goes storming off, and he, knowing that he's gonna miss out on
a month long trip with a sophomorein high school the Paris, gets very

(15:50):
upset with Zach. She says,I'm not going to Paris. Yeah,
she says it, and she leaves, and he's upset about this, and
he's like, I've seen I've had, he's seen this before. This is
in my first rodeo of taking highschool underage girls to Paris with me by
myself and her and some boyfriends.Getting upset. You you just can't make

(16:11):
it up. And then he dropssome knowledge on Zach the Creature show.
I will say it. He justhas a heart to heart with Zach Morris.
Yeah, what is happening. Sohe's like, listen, she's got
dreams, like you're standing in theway of her dreams and mine and and
it's just and it's not cool,man man. So Zach goes at this

(16:36):
point, stand up, stand upguy, tell us the truth. She
was like, I've never ever likenothing in Paris, Comparis, it doesn't
compare it to Paris, isn't compareto you. Gives him a kiss,
and then she says, I wishis the game. I wish the gang
was here, And he's like,the good luck they've been standing outside your
door with a cake and everything tojust wait. They listen to this whole

(16:59):
conversation, the US and everything.It's normal, normal high school times,
Zach. It doesn't go well.Zach goes out to the hallway exit exit
No let's go. We gotta go, you gotta go. That is uh,
that's model Star, Yeah it is. I'm so excited. I'm so

(17:26):
scared of the part of our showwe talk about whether or not we love
this episode and excite us, orwe didn't so much love it it scared
us? Dan Oh, love itor excited or scared? Love it or
leave it? H I've been baneledfrom Uh well tell that story sometimes.
Uh so scared, so scared,and it's I get it. It's from

(17:48):
a different era, and so welet some of this stuff go, knowing
that that we're not alive, youknow now in that time, and there's
not much we can do about it. But it just is uncomfortable. The
whole thing is uncomfortable, and bebecause of that, the humor doesn't really
land much at all. In thisepisode. Screech has very little to do
except for a weird scuba diving bit. Um. You just just not my

(18:11):
thing. I just was not afan of this episode. Um. I'm
sure as a kid when I wasten, I probably loved it. I
probably thought it was so cool.Yeah, but but now I just can't
believe I ever watched this. Itwas not It's such a flimsy premise in
general to get her to where she'sgonna go to Paris for a month,

(18:32):
and and then everything after that isjust offensive. Uh, so scared my
least favorite so far. I thinkwe've watched what about the least favorite?
I think so Yeah. Yeah,this episode obviously has a lot wrong with
it. But it's fine. Uhyou know, it's fine. Um,

(18:52):
it's not a great episode. It'snot a great episode. Um, I
don't think it. I don't knowif it's my least scarite, I'll have
to give it some thought in prayerand consideration. Best bad man. It's
definitely not a great episode. Iwould uh, I would just probably,
I would say skip this one ifyou're you know, if you get the
Bliss, you're not get this one. Skip the Bliss and skip this one.
I'd still watch this one over theBliss if yeah, if you have

(19:15):
to come on, but yeah,just not. It's not great and it's
kind of sad. Oh that's justsad. Yeah. So that's all time
out, time out. As faras show, we talk about what in
this episode made a stop made usconfused but us laugh. Whatever it could
be that made us say time outwhat is going on here? Like?

(19:36):
What is this school store? Yeah? Like I have so many questions,
Like these guys are getting paid torun the store. Far employee getting paid
to run the store? Is itafter hours? I don't know. Um,
how did they get all of thosenew supplies overnight? He restocked the
store overnight. I don't know howthat's possible. Per se. I just

(20:02):
don't understand if is it a classIt just it doesn't make any sense in
the confines of a high school atall. We had a school store at
my school. It was ran byparents from Booster club. He ran it
for free. I've never seen this, and I it feels like a college
thing, like the school bookstore atcollege run by students. M Kelly never
talks sports. She's a cheerleader.She never talks about sports. I've never,

(20:26):
in two seasons, never heard oftalk about sports. Her bedroom is
covered wall to wall in sports memorabilia. All of the following are on her
wall. A basketball hoop she canshoot on, a cycling poster, a
Tony Hawk poster, a Laker's backto back championships, Pennant baseball helmets,

(20:51):
and more. It is wall towall sports memory. Like I love sports.
I didn't have that much sports stuffin my room growing up. I
just don't understand how that the motiffor her room. It doesn't make any
sense. And I do want toknow this. Look, they clearly took
pictures against the will of these girls, and that is a crime. And

(21:11):
they sold them that's also a crime. But what did Jesse and Lisa and
Kelly think was happening when they clearlyposed for these pictures? Yeah, that
was one of them, might bigone. Like listen, I I personally
have never hopped in scuba gear andgotten into a pool and shot candidate of
girls in there's some suits, butif I had, they would not look

(21:36):
like that. What's going on atthis swim practice? But all three of
them are are dry? Yeah,and they're out of the pool. Why
is Screech in scooba gear? Whyis he in scuba gear if he's taking
pictures of them clearly around the poolsomewhere. Well, and then we see
one of the calendar pictures that theysuperimposed Belding's face on is in front of

(22:00):
a like photoshoot backdrop black. Yes, and it's Jesse. They say it's
Jesse. The pictures are candid apparently, but they all pose for them,
so very confused about that. Uh. And then lastly, Slater is uh
the security of the store, andhe's wearing a security shirt and it's a
black skin tight shirts you can see, you know, Mario's muscles and it

(22:25):
says security Comma punk exclamation point andI don't know why it exists. And
if so, like, well,I mean they got the grammar right.
At least that's good because you're talkingto somebody who's the punk appar curity punk
security punk. Uh. So youknow, there's all this nerd stuff and
I mentioned one of those things isa rock, large rock with a clock

(22:49):
in it, and that's nerdy.But what's not nerdy apparently is a backpack
with a clock. So clocks aren'tcompletely it just depends on what they're on.
And I and it's just good toknow that. It's just good to
know that did they again? Iweep. It is just so imp impossible,

(23:11):
it's not even improbable. It isimpossible for there to be a swim
practice going on and for some screechto come in a scuba outfit and get
in the pool and then to notknow, like they're all swimming laps.
They're all swimming like in lanes.It's sweet. It's not synchronized swimming.
They have lanes. Hey, didyou guys bump into a scuba scuba diver

(23:33):
with a camera? Did it?Was it just me? Was it just
you? Um? And then ifhe's taking them outside the pool, which
is what why is he in thescuba gear? Like just show up his
screech and be like your book photos. Yeah, anything works better than the
plan that they have anything. Andwe listen, Zach gets the calendars,

(23:53):
made gets the a okay to putthem back in the school, which Belding,
your far here, that's right,yes, yes, And then we
don't hear any update on the school. They just sold those calendars and the
school the store, Yeah, likeis the store that it stick is?
Zach's still in charge of it?I guess, I mean Kelly's going to

(24:15):
Paris. He's gotta run it byhim, gonna run it by himself.
I just want to Belding does sayuh or maybe it's Zach. Somebody said,
says Kelly. If this doesn't turnaround, you're gonna be out of
a job. And like they makeit sound like that's a big big loss
for her like her parents. Imean, you know, but once again,
like how many hours a week isshe clocking at the school store?
Hey? Because because only open duringschool hours. Because Zach does this whole

(24:38):
thing with Belding where he brings himthe sales for last month and it's just
a blank piece of paper. Now, I don't know, like that's a
Belding seems to not know. It'scrazy the status of the store. Who
is in charge of the star andthe school board's gonna get involved as well.
We hear that the school board isgonna care about those profits from the
school store. Yeah, it's ridiculous. Well they I mean they cared about

(25:02):
the Max. You know they're gonnashut that's true. The school board is
over one school in this case,even though it's a public school. Yeah,
we did it, everybody, certainListen, the only news out there
is sad screech news. So Idon't know, like you know, I
don't know how much we want toget into it. It's just sad.
So let's just not. Let's justnot. They are friends forever. They

(25:22):
are friends forever. So I said, we'll give you update on our friendship.
How would you rate it? Ona scale one to ten, I
think it's like a six right now, Little Rocky, you know there was
a there was an incident. Dowe need to get into it right now?
We can get into it right now. We're going to do it right
now. Um, you brought mea waffle. Um, I did very

(25:44):
kind of me. And uh itwasn't even warm. It was cold to
the touch, and you it wasnot You had the audacity to look at
me as I've been in the waffleand said and say this, They're really
good when they're warm. Yeah,why would you do that? We have
a micro Why would you? Whywould you do that? But here's it.
I came like the only way forit not to have cooled down is

(26:06):
for you to have met me atthe waffle point. You can get an
invite, a calendar, invite nothing. I got nothing to me. How
are you possibly upset that I broughtyou a waffle? I'm not. The
waffle is delicious good. It's aten of ten friendship too. Yeah,
that's right. All right, we'llbe back in two weeks. We will
be back next week with another gavel. But until then, all class,

(26:44):

studio. Feel free to listen,feel free to turn off whatever you want
