Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Lindsay’s parents are convinced Kim is leading their daughter down a path toward drugs and sex, so they consider taking a peek in her diary. Meanwhile, Bill is tired of the same jocks picking the teams during P.E., often leaving him picked last, so he makes prank calls to Coach Fredricks then confronts him directly. The adults may be the ones learning lessons from the students.

Our Take

Solid, satisfying television. The season’s engine keeps turning and the character work pays.
