Old Crusty

**Old Crusty** is the centerpiece of the playground, hence it has been shown in the lion's share of the series of *98th Street School* (including the movies). It is a large combination jungle gym, slide, and swing set; it's almost impossible to envisage 98th Street School without it.

Old Crusty stood for a long time in the playground, until the Board of Education's new policies called for the playground to be torn down (this occurred in the episode "The Great Jungle Gym Standoff").

During this episode, despite the students, their parents, and the faculty's successful protest, Old Crusty came crashing down under the protesters' combined weight. The jungle gym was put back together and C.J. dubbed it "New Crusty".

## Appearance

The "Old Crusty" that was shown to be an ancient, scruffy, and rusty dilapidated structure on the grass area of the playground of 98th Street School. This structure has been on the playground for, seemingly, an indefinite amount of time; "New Crusty" was constructed from the ruins of the one old.

The "New Crusty" is fresh, shiny, and is almost identical to Old Crusty. This was the one shown after its predecessor collapsed.

## History

In the episode "Economics of Recess", the top of Old Crusty was occupied by C.J., seemingly making it her headquarters once she established a monopoly on the playground. This had both the Safety Rangers and Queen Barb's guards as watchers - this would imply that C.J. had formed a monopoly and all previous faction members worked solely for him. Brinklow and Rachel were both shown to be.

In the episode "Bachelor Rus", Rus commandeered it to be his home when he thought that he and his parents were going to move again. Old Crusty had some cloth draped in on the inside to simulate walls, as well as the basic creature comforts. When Rus moves out, Old Crusty goes back to normal.

## Trivia

* In the episode "The Great Jungle Gym Standoff," the structure old rusty was destroyed by the combined weight of the supporters. The new structure put in its place was - on the face of it - a restoration; C.J. herself christened it "New Crusty." Despite this, the kids go back to calling it "Old Crusty" later on in the series.
* When New Crusty was constructed, it was done so from the ruins of Old Crusty. This is much like a metaphor for Phoenix from the Ashes.
* The way that the structure is described could be perceived as personification.
* In the episode "The Challenge", Principal Prickly's brother's school, which is like a mirror universe to his own, there is an identical jungle gym named *Old Rusty.*

He cares greatly for Rachel, worrying about Rachel after hearing Rachel's false story about how he has many friends with whom he shares his free time. It was at this time that he questioned whether he knew his own daughter anymore. When he learned it was all a big lie, he told Rachel he was disappointed; however, this was relieved since he was able to learn about his daughter.

No More School

The first episode begins with The Recess Gang starting the fifth grade. At first thought to be the best year ever, they soon discovered otherwise. First, Mr Boyd becomes the fifth grade teacher instead of the desired Mrs. Chocolaty, who had transferred. This is combined with their lockers being taken away, the cafeteria food being substandard, and the playground being removed.

In response to these atrocities, C.J. goes to see Principal Prickly, who says that he couldn't do anything because it was the school board's policy. Consequently, C.J. claims that she would stay in her room and never go to school again. Word soon gets out, compelling every student at 98th Street to gather at C.J.'s house. Prickly tries to compel C.J. to come down, but the school board finds out and dispatches Mr. Black (from the episode "The Story of A-Wors").

Mr. Black claims that he will allow C.J. to remain in her room, but promises that her friends will suffer for it. C.J. then seemingly concedes, allowing Mr. Black in her room, only to find that C.J. climbed on top of the roof. Unfortunately, C.J. almost falls off the roof, but Prickly saves her. It is then that Prickly decides to join C.J.'s protest, admitting that he too hated the policies.

Amazed to see that Prickly is standing up for C.J., the board members find out that they too hated the policies, but they were just things that each of them was too afraid to stand up to. Realizing their mistake, the board members vote to alleviate the policies for good, much to the dismay of Mr. Black, having been beaten by a kid a second time. Afterwards, things at 98th Street are returned to normal, aside from having Mr Boyd as a teacher.

## Background

Bonky is a toy dog character who is loved by many small children (like the kindergartners). Apparently, the character is very popular, judging from the sheer amount of merchandise featuring him (not to mention his archetypal theme song).

When Mickey was a little kid, he loved Bonky and used to play with him all the time - much like the rest of the gang (Rigalli excluded). In "Bonky Fever," the large poet regressed to a child-like, immature state, in which he played with Bonky. According to Gretchen, no child over five-years should play with Bonky.

The Gang asked the kid why he had called Russ Diaval and the kid explained that at Zhessie Zhames Elementary School (one of the school Russ had been to), Russ was the fastest dodgeball player ever.

The Recess Gang asked Russ about it while he was playing guitar to Harold, but he denied it. CJ then threw a dodgeball at Russ and he caught it at fast speed. CJ then asked Dawson if they could have a match: 4th graders vs 5th graders and Dawson agreed. They then asked Russ to play it with them, but he insulted the marbles, to which Rigelli took his guitar. Russ then explained that as Diaval, he threw a dodgeball at a little kid at Zhessie Zhames and after that, he never played dodgeball again.

CJ asked Dawson if they could bail, but Dawson refused. Everyone had to give up their marbles, even Rachel. That Recess, the 4th and 5th graders were ready. All the bullies were on Dawson's side. Whistle Boy did the sound of "go." Soon, Harold got on the battlefield and Dawson hit HIM with a dodgeball. Russ recognised that as an act of cowardice, dressed up as Diaval and beat the bullies with a dodgeball. The Gang asked him if he would beat the 6th graders, but Russ refused and walked into the sunset.

The End.

In "A Genius Among Us," Dill even attempts to take credit for Harry's work when Greta wrote a complicated math problem on the board before everyone went to recess and Harry solved it (but left before anyone saw him), but when asked by Miss Ropey to solve it, Dill admitted he lied.

Dawson's Crew

In the 20-minute special episode "Dawson and his Crew," Dawson organized his own crew out of envy of C.J. and the gang making things better, getting all the glory and getting rewards from Queen Barb. His crew was more or less a replica.

Dawson's crew, however, emerged better than the gang by taking care of everything first, and thus ended up getting all the glory. The gang, however, discerned that they did not really care about glory; and were just happy being friends, and being friends was the only thing the gang had that Dawson and his crew did not, and since Dawson's crew members were only teammates and not friends, they did not remain a crew permanently. They eventually dissolved and Lawson went back to hanging out with his two friends, Jimbo and Joey, remarking, "Maybe a kid needs friends more then glory".

## Members

* **Eric Dawson** - The leader of the crew the one in charge and the "C.J." of the crew.

* **Rachel B. Jeans** - The "Rus" of the crew is the eyes and ears of the crew on the playground and is considered more valuable than Rus.
* **Brinklow** - The "Greta" of the crew. While he is no Greta in the classroom nor in the lab, he matches his single-minded organization abilities against anyone else's.

Queen Greta

Queen Barb came down with a sore throat, so she was looking for a "substitute Queen," as Gordan had suggested. He tried Corey Caster the strong sixth grader who would be a king substituting for her, but Corey is too strong. Gordan tried Margaret who is the smartest fourth grader, but Margaret is too smart. Then Queen Barb picked Greta, since knowledge was power. Greta was feeling unsure, but her friends were supportive of her.

Later that day, Barb coronated Greta as Substitute Queen before her father came to pick her up. At first, Greta was a fair ruler, making only one mistake where she picked the wrong owner of an action figure, but soon the power went to her head. She began giving the students difficult assignments, even those that weren’t taught until middle school. "It's easy," she took to saying whenever a student asked about them and said "I’m NOT smart," whenever they challenged her.

Soon, her friends had enough and led a revolt, but then Queen Barb came back, feeling well again. After she became Queen again, Rigelli confronted Greta, but her friends agreed that “Absolute power corrupts absolutely.” But then, Gordan came to Rigelli, telling her about her being Lord Sultan of the East playground, which excited her.

The End.

He can produce the best burps at 98th Street except for the brief time when Gary Jibbs, who could do everything better than everyone, moved there.

## Personality

Chubby is very dedicated and has a strong sense of right and wrong. This is illustrated in "Kindergarten Derby" when Chubby expresses his wish to show everyone that fat people are just as good as skinny people. He decided that people would appreciate fat people if he could win the derby, and so he dedicated himself to training with the help of Mickey. While he was training, he noticed how the other kindergartners were being treated like horses by the big kids. In response to this terrible treatment and as a tribute to his trainer, Mickey (who had been the only kid in the history 98th Street to not finish the race), Chubby's wish, as granted by Queen Barb for winning the derby, was to end the tradition of the Kindergarten derby.

**Helga Benson** is Gilda Jackson's 98th Street counterpart and the secondary antagonist of the *C.J. and Friends* episode, "Prickly is Leaving". She serves as the assistant to Dr. Hetter, who’s known to be the most evil and meanest administrator in the school district.

## History

When Dr. Hetter is about to be assigned as the new principal of 98th Street School as the current principal Paul Prickly is about to enter a job as a principal for the Spyro B. Agold middle school, Helga accompanies him as she writes down notes of his plans of turning the school into his very own authoritarian institution, such as tearing down the jungle gym and replacing it with a guard tower, creating a new school uniform and regulation haircut code, and applying cover paint to the main compound building to suit his purposes.

Just like her boss, Helga is shown to be outright evil in nature, even helping her boss creating a paper hat for one of the students, C.J., as a warning against her if she steps out of line. Dr. Hetter even leaves Helga in charge of the playground, demoting the current groundskeeper Boris Boyd to being her assistant, much to Boyd's dismay. Helga sinks further when she announced to Boyd that she’ll have to wear a gray jumper while serving her and answer to her whistle, much to Boyd's anger.

However, she and Dr. Hetter are defeated when Principal Prickly decides to stay being principal of 98th Street School, much to both Boyd and the students' delight.

## Appearance

Unlike her counterpart, she has curly ginger hair. She wears a green jumper and a grey jacket.
Blood Queen

## Description

It is a hidden class and is also unique. It is only available to women as they can raise their own army of vampires and stand as their ruler. It was a perfect fit for a woman who employed a honey trap to ensnare the hearts of men.

Stats would suffer a 30% debuff during the daytime, but during the night they would be increased by 30% instead.
Scribe Kid

File:Toby "Scribe Kid" Woodworm.png  **Toby "Scribe Kid" Woodworm** is Colby "Scribe Kid" Anderson's 98th Street School counterpart and an assistant to Queen Barb and is Queen Barb's secretary, always writing down whatever Queen Barb tells him to (normally by saying "Scribe Kid! Get this down"). He is seen writing Queen Barb's life story and his decrees. He also sometimes reports when his decrees are been defied.

Scribe Kid is also a friend of Brinklow as shown in the episode "Some Friend", as he was one of the people who Brinklow invited to his birthday party and was on the same team as him in "Soccer Boy".

## Appearance

Scribe Kid has orange hair and has the same clothes as his Third Street School counterpart.
Finkelmeier Academy

**The Finkelmeier Elementary** for the incredibly and extremely gifted is a special school for geniuses and gifted students. Students get tons of homework, thick books with tiny print and their own Lab Rat (Fourth Graders). The only known student to go there is Squeaky Patterson. Greta almost got an admission; but she refused, saying that there is more to education than learning.
Queen Marion

**Marion** "**Queen Marie**" (born 1923/24) was the first Queen of 98th Street School. She used to rule in the year 1935. Her rule book was found by Gordan and Gerard in the episode "The Rules". Queen Barb, when informed about it, imposed it. The kids, first excited, later find out that the Rules make no sense in the era they were born in.

Later on, after studying the book, the students realize that Queen Marie had written the rules during the height of the Great Depression, when the school was unable to afford most types of toys and playground equipment. To remedy this, Queen Marie had come up with rules that would help children (at the time) be able to have fun with what they had, even if they were not "traditional"/"conventional" playthings. For example, Queen Marie had come up with things such as:

* Play basketball by washing rags.
* Playing foursquare and dodgeball using a large tree stump (which most kids couldn't lift).
* Collecting grass (whoever made the biggest pile was the winner).
* Even swinging a discarded apple.

Assuming that Marion was still alive at the time of the events in "The Rules", she would most likely be in her mid-70s.
Godfrey Darkssage

Godfrey Darkssage is the son of Monsieur Darkssage, the teacher of Rigelli's dance class. He kept bothering Greta until she stood up to him, thus he loses his crush. He is Geoffery Luciano's 98th Street School counterpart and a tall, lanky boy with blonde hair and buck teeth. He usually is shown wearing a yellow Hawaiian shirt with pink flowers on it, blue jeans, and sneakers.

Magician Kid

**Magician Kid** is a clone of Wizard Kid. He is one of Queen Barb's servants and a Court Wizard. He makes his first appearance in "Queen Greta". It is also the only episode where he speaks; in other episodes he just remains a cameo character. His real name was William Panners.

Dill Muller

File:Dill Muller.png  **Dill Muller** is Mike Diller's 98th Street School counterpart and one of Dawson's close friends. He is sometimes referred by his surname. He is Caucasian-American and tall, and has red hair. He wears a green jumper and dark blue trousers. He made notable appearances in some episodes including Dodgeball City.
Algy

**Algy** is Eddie's 98th Street School counterpart and a sixth-grade student of 98th Street School, who has bully-like tendencies and is troublesome in nature. His full name in Algy Punsen.

 File:Algy.png
He usually appears as a background character, and sometimes, he is one of the fifth-graders who is seen playing sports alongside Dawson and the rest of his friends. Eddie normally hangs out with Florence (the future queen of the playground) and Ben who appeared in the episode "Jinxed" (from whom Rus took the notebook).

## Appearance

He is tall, athletic, and has brown hair. He also wears a grey vest and wrist bands.

## History

In the episode "Jinxed", Algy is one of the spinners on the wheel. The wheel was used as a punishment for Rus ordered by Queen Barb for Rus' insolence. Later on, he is seen standing next to the sixth-grader who Rus has had problems with earlier in the episode, both of whom seemed remorseful for their part in Rus' misfortune.

In the episode "To Boyd with Love", Algy can be seen with Florence and Ben of his bullying Guru Kid.

He has another fairly large role in the episode "Me No Know", in which he is seen aggressively approaching Vince only for it to be revealed that he is quoting the same movie as everyone else.

He and Ben are seen charging C.J. a Mon-Sticker in "Economics of Recess" for laying down on the grass.

In the episode "Sphinx Barb", Algy was seen in the same class as Queen Barb, indicating that he might possibly be a sixth-grader like King Bob. However, Florence was also seen in that class, but she is in fifth grade as she became the new queen of the playground after Queen Barb finished sixth grade and went on to middle school and so Algy either could be a fifth grader, like Florence, or a sixth-grader, like Queen Barb.
Donald

**Donald** is a boy who became Mr Boyd's new snitch and the new snitch of the school and Douglas' 98th Street School counterpart, after Rachel changed her ways in the episode "Rachel Reforms" and started hanging out with C.J. and the gang.

Disney Princess Rachel

One Recess, C.J. was making fun of Queen Barb, which Rachel noticed and told Queen Barb, who had C.J. sent to her. However, instead of telling her off, she congratulated CJ, much to Rachel’s confusion. Rachel then tried to come up with another scam. She bought a spy camera from the local mall and had a good snoop. She then saw Queen Barb dressed like a man and took a picture.

The next day, at Recess, Rachel showed Queen Barb the picture and blackmailed her into making her the Disney Princess of the playground, since she was a fan of the Disney Princesses, her favourite one being Cinderella, since she had learned about COMPUTERella, which Barb obliged.

Everyone was confused as to why Rachel was the Princess, especially the Main 6, so Russ and Greta went around asking questions as well. Meanwhile Rachel had had many put in her jungle gym dungeon.

No one the Gang knew knew how Rachel became Princess, but Greta pointed out that Queen Barb knew and they found her with the kindergarteners. She showed them Rachel’s picture and the Gang encouraged her not to be embarrassed.

An announcement was to be made to all the playground and Queen Barb’s aides gave them copies of the picture, telling them that Barb will tell them to open them. Queen Barb then explained that she had an older brother and she was blackmailed into dressing up in guy clothes, which the photo was of. Everyone revealed THEIR embarrassing traits, including Eric Dawson, who had pigtails. Everyone said “Hail, hail, Queen Barb,” and Barb had Rachel thrown into her own dungeon.

The End.
Me No Know

One morning, Vance walks into school, reconstructing the basketball game that was on TV the last weekend. When he arrives in class, making references to the game, the class is unresponsive. Vance learns that the entire class had seen "NitWitz 3" in lieu of the game. All day, his peers only ever talk about the movie, making him feel like a social outcast; isolated, he decides that he has to see the movie. However that evening, his parents Colby and Lindsey refuse to let him see it because it is rated NK-11; since the city and, more importantly, the school are dominated by this in turns of popular culture.

The next day at school during recess, Vance bounces a basketball until Dawson catches it and shoves it under his shirt and Jimbo and Mario ask him where the ball went, and Dawson replies, "Me no know!" Vance runs over to what the Scammer Kid is showing, which is revealed to be watches saying, "Watch out, Sammy!" Vance then decides to spend recess indoors with the Pale Kids, but they reply, "Me no know!" as well.

A few days later, Vance telephones his local cinema, where he hears a trailer about pandas. The next moment, Vance leaves with a pencil and a notepad in his hands and tells his mother that he is off to the library like a good young man whereas he is really sneaking out to see the movie "Nitwitz 3".

After sneaking out, Vance attempts to buy a ticket for admittance to the showing at the cinema, however, he soon backs down due his stature. Mr Boyd is not too far away from Vance after he walks away, he then claims to be his ("distant") nephew so that he could be admitted. After being admitted, he spends the entirety of the movie taking down notes instead of laughing and on what to say when he is back at 98th Street. He walks out of the movie theater quoting lines of the movie, encountering his parents doing so. They immediately conclude the terminology sounds similar to the comic that is being the NitWitz franchise. They tell Vance they are very displeased that they could not trust him and are very disappointed in him for lying to them and disobeying them, as they punish him by grounding him for a week (including TV privileges), but they still allow Vance to go to school because he *has* to go to school.

On Monday, which is a week after he felt ostracized for not seeing "NitWitz 3", he walks into Miss Ropey's classroom, quoting lines from the movie - much like last week. However, this falls to deaf ears, as Moron Patrol - a movie premiere on TV - was shown last night, which he did not see due to him not being able to watch TV, because he is grounded. Prompting the whole class to say in synchronization, "Captain Dumbell!," presumably the protagonist of the movie. Vance, dejected, calls himself "Captain Dumbell."
League of Rachels

One Recess, Rachel was looking for a group of people to help her snitch. Then she came across the Megans's little brothers, the Kyles. She decided to have them be the "League of Rachels," and snitch for her. Things went good for a while, Mr Boyd got the reports he needed.

But then, Rachel heard the Kyles had snitched on Queen Barb. Rachel knew SHE wouldn’t snitch on her. The Kyles told her that they were the "League of Kyles," now and had Rachel put in the Circle. CJ and her friends thought that Rachel put them there and attempted to attack her, but Rachel explained everything and they all came up with a plan.

They had the Megans get the Kyles to tell them what they REALLY thought of their fellow snitches and had the Kyles hear it all, which made them briefly break up their friendship, until the gang came and explained. Everything was solved.

The End.
Frankie Dudettecow

File:Frankie Dudettecow.png  **Frankie** "**The Dudette**" **Dudettecow** was Franklin Dudikoff's 98th Street School counterpart and a former student of 98th Street School.

## Appearance

She has long brown hair, black eyes and wears a brown trenchcoat, red necktie, pink jumper, and purple trousers. As a student teacher, she was not confident, reading only from a book, that is until the kids reminded her of who she used to be. Unfortunately, that was even worse as she only had them playing. Eventually she learned to combine both her serious teacher personality and her fun side, and taught the kids their lessons in a fun and creative way. Although not mentioned in the episode, it is obvious that she is extremely attractive, fitting the cliche of a "Hot Teacher". She has a change of personality. He tries to find the right way to teach the students.

## History

She was regarded by the kids as a legend, becoming the playground queen in the third grade and pranked Mr Boyd by writing an insult in wet cement besides his footprint and writing signs and sticking them on her back. She also led a revolt in the cafeteria against what they used to call "Tuesday Surprise".

## Trivia

* Like C.J.'s phrase "Tender", she has a phrase "Supple".
* In "The Dudette", Miss. Dudette mentions having stashed some bubble gum in a hollow globe "about fifteen years ago." Assuming she attended fourth grade during that time (around 1982), that would make her about 24 in the present (1997-98).
Monsieur Darkssage

File:Monsieur Darkssage.png  **Monsieur Alexandre Darkssage** is Mademoiselle Carmelita Pavlova's 98th Street counterpart, Godfrey's father, and the proprietor and the sole dance teacher of Monsieur Darkssage's Salon of Independent Movement. He is only featured prominently in the episode "Dance Lessons", in which he taught Rigalli how to ballet dance along with Mickey.

He states that Rigalli reminded him of himself when he was a little kid. He could have taught Mickey from anywhere in his toddler years to the time of the episode and after. It is presumed that Rigalli quits on the dance lessons after the episode of the same name.

## Appearance

Darkssage is very smart, has a bald forehead, wrinkles, and a moustache. He has brown hair and a hunch back. He also resembles Leonard Weems, the father of Randall Weems. He wears a blue t-shirt and dark green jeans.

She was seen to be teaching Marsh the Worst and Rachel (respective equivalents to Mickey and Rigalli) to dance for a school event, this mirrors the former episode.

## Trivia

* He, along with several other characters that were featured in the series, make cameo appearances in the episode "Dawson and his Crew".
* He speaks in a French accent.
* His Third Street counterpart did not have Godfrey's 98th Street counterpart Geoffrey Luciano as her son. But instead, she has a son and daughter.
