## Transcript

(The episode opens with the camera zooming to Lakeside Lake. On shore, there are a few sailboats. One boat has "I ♥ Walker" on its sail)

**Principal Walker:** Well, Goodman, are the boats built to my specifications?

**Joey:** (clears his throat and salutes, perfectly impersonating Mr. Goodman's voice) All built from your directions, sir!

**Principal Walker:** Thank you, Goodman, you are too good for me. (realizes this) Wait, you're not Goodman! You're...uhh...

**Joey:** Joey - Joey Maldanado. These are all built from your directions thanks to me!

**Principal Walker:** So what were you saying?

**Mr. Goodman:** (walks in) That is indeed Joey Maldanado, sir. At the awards ceremony yesterday, he earned his leadership ribbon for leading the Boatbuilder Club in-

**Principal Walker:** (interrupts him by giving Joey another copy of the ribbon) Oh! How could I forget? Here you go. (puts it on Joey's forehead)

**Joey:** Thank you, mister! I will wear it proudly, and then I will-

**Principal Walker:** That's good to hear and all, but let's not waste time by chattering too much. It could delay the race after all. (Joey stares at the camera and facepalms) I mean, just think about all the possible, unfortunate outcomes that could happen if we were to continue talking excessively!

(Beat)

**Principal Walker:** Alright, let's see what these boatbuilders have made. (starts inspecting as the camera pans through the boats) Yes, followed the plans precisely. Looks seaworthy enough - the sailors oughta do. So far, so good. (the camera stops at Edward and Eric's poorly-constructed "boat") Wait a minute! What the heck is that?

**Mr. Goodman:** (flips through papers on his clipboard) Uhhhh...

**Principal Walker:** Is that a boat made of brick and powered by a tiny fan?

**Mr. Goodman:** Appears to be, sir.

**Principal Walker:** Heh, and who built *that* wonder of science?

**Mr. Goodman:** The Pearson brothers, sir. Edward and Eric.

**Principal Walker:** Edward and Eric? That sounds like the name of a TV show that's mediocre at best!

(Walker and Goodman laugh, but Goodman's laughter is different compared to later episodes)

**Principal Walker:** Have the Coast Guard standing by! (they laugh harder)

**Mr. Goodman:** (and then they stop) Nautical humor.

**Principal Walker:** Oh, wait, I forgot they're students. My apologies. (speaks into a megaphone) Sailors, in launch positions! On your mark...get set...and, sail!

(All of the students, except for the brothers, launch their boats into the lake. Suddenly, they spontaneously sink upon reaching the water. The camera cuts to the brothers)

**Edward:** (imitates radio static) Captain to engine room! Are you ready, Thrillseeker Eric?

**Eric:** Ready!

**Both:** WARP SPEED!

(Eric turns on the fan, and not only does the "boat" completely avoid sinking like a rock, but it also goes a lot faster than a speedboat, with Eric waterskiing)

**Principal Walker:** (readjusts his glasses) I cannot believe what I'm seeing. That does it! Joey, because of your inhuman leadership, all of you shall FLUNK!!!!

**All:** Flunk?!

**Principal Walker:** (removes Joey's ribbon from his forehead) And no ribbon for you!

**Joey:** At least I still have the one on my shirt.

(Walker rips off Joey's clothes, leaving him in his underwear. Everybody points and laughs at him)

**Principal Walker:** (walking away with Mr. Goodman) Goodman, call my therapist. I've never seen such heinous leadership before.

**Joey:** (crosses his arms) Edward...Eric...

(Fade to black)

(The next days, the brothers walk out of their dorm room. Edward adjusts his undone tie)

**Edward:** (to Joey and Aaron, who are conversing) Morning, Joey. Morning, Aaron.

(Joey gets angry. He walks off, and Aaron waddles away)

**Eric:** That's weird.

**Edward:** What, that Joey's mad?

**Eric:** No. Normally Joey punches us in the nose when he wakes up in a bad mood.

(They approach Jason, Grayson, Mason and Hasten)

**Eric:** Hi there, Jason. Hello, Grayson. Morning, Mason. And hello, Hasten!

(The twins yelp and try to run off, only to trip on their shoelaces and fall each other like dominoes)

**Eric:** Was it something I said?

(They leave the boys' dorm and head to the flower field. Terry and Barry are speaking to Joey)

**Edward:** Oh, uh, hi again, Joey. What are you guys talking about?

**Joey:** NOTHING!!!! (grabs them by their collars and tosses them into the next scene)
