Plot: After Tom forces an early wake up to celebrate the beginning of Black History Month on the family, Taylor anticipates getting to portray President Obama on the school Unity Parade float but finds it has been given to another student. When he looks to accept a position as the first black President, he is shocked to learn there have been no others and of black people's history as slaves. Taylor targets Sandals and his Confederate flag as the symbol of his hate, When Sandals questions why there was a need for a "black" anything, it prompts a fight between him and Tom. Sandals files charges of a hate crime against Tom because of the names called during the fight.
In court, the judge sentences the two of them to work together, Taylor plans to do something about Sandals' confederate flag. He takes off from school and sneaks into Sandals' house but shocks Abagail into falling on him, being saved only by managing to prop up her grabber tool to give herself some room. Stuck together, they ended up bonding until Abagail's blood sugar starts to dip and she becomes weaker, losing what little control she had to arch her back and keep from crushing Taylor. At the parade, while Sandals and Tom start fighting again, Mrs. Lowenstein informs Shubie that Taylor never showed up for school. Shubie hijacks the parade float and rushes home to try to locate Taylor. Talking of food to distract Abagail, she starts to sweat and they get the idea that if she can sweat enough, Taylor may be able to wiggle free. Taylor succeeds and manages to get Abagail some sugar in time to save her. Sandals and Tom are happy enough that everyone is safe and agree to a truce, although Tom asks Sandals to remove his flag. Sandals has no idea of its connection to the Confederacy and only displays it for its connection to The Dukes of Hazard.
