Horrid Henry and the Terrible Teacher

== Synopsis ==
When Miss Battle-Axe decides to take a holiday, Henry reckons it is time to celebrate, but he has forgotten that sometimes you have to be careful what you wish for!
== Plot ==
The episode begins with the classmates playing around the classroom. Miss Battle-Axe opens the classroom and sees everyone playing around, so she tells everyone she's going to leave the classroom, and after some time, she comes back, and she expects everyone to be in their seats, or else. She leaves the classroom, but everyone starts playing around again. When Miss Battle-Axe reappears, everyone gets back to their seats, but Henry throws a paper aeroplane onto her head, and after Henry says: 'Oops.', Miss Battle-Axe replies 'Oops Indeed, Henry!' and he screams, 'Noooo!!!', opening the title card.
The next scene shows Miss Oddbod in her office eating chocolates but hides the box when Miss Battle-Axe comes in and talks about losing her grip with the pupils in her classroom.
Later on, while the class are with Miss Lovely reading them a story, Miss Battle-Axe announces that she is be going on a holiday, much to the shock of William except the other children who shake their head saying they won't miss her, and that she may be away for sometime but will not miss them and that doesn't mean the classmates will get holidays too since Henry asks. Their temporary teacher will be taking her place first thing tomorrow and leaves as everyone talks among themselves.
After school, Miss Oddbod is still trying to find a substitute teacher to cover Miss Battle-Axe while looking through her book. She calls Mr Nerdon on her office phone but he freaks out screaming, and Miss Oddbod looks at the phone in shock, with Mr Nerdon immediately ending the call. Miss Oddbod decides to try a trainee instead and calls Rabid Rebecca, also known as Miss Rancid.
The following day, when everyone is playing, Rabid Rebecca arrives to their class, much to the shock of everyone. Linda wakes up making Ralph throw the plane onto Rebecca's head (just like what Henry did to Miss Battle-Axe the day earlier), she throws it back and pokes him. As everyone remains in their seats, Rebecca walks towards Henry who shows his pet spider, Archie but she isn't scared anymore, takes him and shouts at Henry to sit down.
Rebecca asks if anyone thinks about misbehaving, makes William cry in fear and gives Archie back to Henry. When the bell rings for break time, Henry is about to get out but instead, Rebecca dismisses the class one-by-one fiercely and when she finally allows Henry to leave, she instead shouts at him, causing him to fall on the floor where Peter is walking and sings while leaving. Peter asks him what was he doing and Henry says cleaning the floor. Peter helps him out thinking he'll get a gold star from his new teacher but Henry disagrees saying 'That's what you think, Smelly nappy baby' and Peter leaves him alone. Henry sees Rebecca eating crisps while ignoring Peter's singing after hearing it and turns to the audience.
During break time, Margaret blames Henry that Miss Battle-Axe has gone away on holiday and left them alone with Rebecca but Henry says it's not his fault that Rebecca isn't afraid of spiders anyone and thought Archie would scare her away. Margaret says it didn't and tells Henry that he must find a way to get rid of Rebecca, or else, it will be even more his fault and leaves with her classmates. Henry asks Ralph why is it always his fault and he says 'Cos it always is'. In class, after Andrew raises his hand, Brian asks Rebecca if she is going to teach the class anything but she calls him a creep and sends everyone out of class and slams the door behind her. Mr Soggington asks Rebecca how she's handling with the children then he tries to scare her as a joke when Peter comes in the teacher's room telling Miss Lovely about the tasks he completed then leaves while singing making her angry and shuts the door telling Sid she's fine now.
Meanwhile, Henry finds Margaret and Susan hiding behind a plant but she tells him to go away and they got a plan to get rid of Rebecca. Henry sees Rebecca coming and runs off while the two girls and the other children try to scare her. Henry makes it back to the classroom and as Rebecca approaches him angrily, she hears Peter singing the Frère Jacques song through the window. So Henry opens the window and Rebecca climbs out to chase his brother until Miss Oddbod to catch her for no reason and subsequently firing her, making the whole class cheer and Miss Oddbod tells everyone to sit back at their desks and wait for Mr Soggington who will be with them shortly. The story ends with Rebecca angrily shaking her fist at Henry who sings Frère Jacques causing her to scream: 'Noooo!!!' while he laughs off-screen, ending the episode.
