Hey, steph!

I don't know you.

Of course you know me.

I'm your brother.

Look, arthur--

There's stuff you've got to understand.

At school, you never talk to me.

What?

And don't tell anyone I'm your sister.

They're going to get suspicious.

Not a lot of kobalewscuys around.

Kaye, my name is kaye.

Kaye, k-a-y-e.

You live with dad.

I live with mom.

We changed our name.

We're still related.

Look, it's not you, it's the system.

I'm in grade eight so I'm important.

You're in grade seven

So you're, like, totally embarrassing.

Returning students...

Hey, how are you doing?

Steph, how was your summer?

It was great.

What about yours?

All right.

Hi, rick.

Glad to be back?

Grade seven again.

Hi, steph.

Hi.

Stephanie!

Voula!

I missed you.

I got you something.

A present?

For me?

From one best friend

To another.

It's beautiful.

Thanks.

Can you believe we're in grade eight?

It's like being grown up almost.

This will be a big year.

Is your brother here?

Don't talk about it.

He's always asking so many dumb questions.

Good thing you have different last names.

I know.

Um, stephanie...

What are you doing?

This is grade eight, right?

We're supposed to be more mature.

I'm going to start dressing more mature.

All students using the bike racks

Are reminded to lock their bikes.

Hi, doris.

Joey!

Excuse me.

Can you tell me the way to miss avery's?

I lost the directions.

Hey, no problem.

Joey jeremiah, esquire

Chairman of the welcoming committee.

Arthur kobalewscuy.

What do you think?

It's my new image.

What was wrong

With the old image?

Voula, grade eight.

Remember, school elections are coming up next week.

Get those nominations in early.

Get involved, guys.

Guys?!

What about girls?

If I were president

I'd have better food

In the cafeteria.

I'd have less homework.

Or more current events.

More dances.

I don't know about that.

You know what?

I should run for president.

Yes, you should, you're popular.

Really?

You think I'm popular?

Yes!

Though dressed like that...

You don't like it?

No, you look fine.

You're not just saying that?

No, you'd be the best president.

Hi, joey.

How's it going?

You'll meet lots of people.

Joey!

How's it going?

Hey, how's it going?

These people are so cool.

Hank, meet artie.

I'm showing him around.

Hey, artie.

Arthur, it's arthur.

Your class, mr. Kobalewscuy.

I'll see you maybe later, okay?

See you around.

Hey, guys, this is definitely not my class.

What a broomhead!

Stephanie: Can you imagine me being school president?

What's a school president do?

All sorts of stuff.

Stephanie?

Organize dances.

Dances?

We're going to have so much fun.

All right!

Come on, joey, this isn't funny.

L.D., have a good summer?

I worked on a '59 chevy.

I'm jealous.

Anyway...

Hey, steph!

Uh, hi.

Hi.

Remember me?

Joey jeremiah, playboy.

At your service.

Want to play?

Greetings, scholars.

I trust you all remembered

To bring your malleable little minds with you this year?

For those of you who are new, my name is mr. Raditch.

For those who are returning, we meet again.

Welcome to grade eight.

Any students who have not yet located their homeroom

Report to doris bell...

Let me out!

...Ground floor by the main entrance.

Come on, joey, let me out.

I'm looking for miss avery's class.

Miss avery?

You know where it is?

No, but it's got to be somewhere.

Let's look together.

Come on.

Two heads are better than one.

Unless you've only got one hat.

Yick yu.

What?

That's my name, yick yu.

Oh.

Don't tell joey.

Who's joey?

Don't ask.

My name is ms. Avery, a-v-e-r-y.

Ms., m-s, ms. Avery.

I'm your homeroom teacher this year.

If you have problems or questions

Talk to me.

Let's begin by calling the roll.

When I call your name, raise your hand.

Stacey farrow.

Here.

Derek...

Are you miss avery?

Yes, come in, come in.

Find yourselves a seat.

This is a very confusing school.

Of course you understand that after lunch every day

Will be mathematics.

That is the class you are to go to.

It will be posted in the hall...

I'd like to be president

But I can't write speeches or anything.

I can.

I'll be executive assistant.

We'll be a team.

You and me.

Thank you, ladies.

Get lost, arthur.

"we want more information about family planning.

"we want more current events studied in class.

"we want input into the curriculum

To help control our fate as students."

Voula, what is this?

What's wrong with it?

"in conclusion..."

Come on!

You've got to practice.

Right, right.

"in conclusion, if you vote for me..."

Stephanie!

"I'll work hard to justify your faith in me

"because I believe that being president

Is a responsibility not to be taken lightly."

Come on!

Get me out of here!

I met joey.

Stephanie: We want more information about family planning.

We want more current events studied in class.

We want input into the curriculum

To control our fate.

If you vote for me, stephanie kaye

I'll work hard to justify your faith in me

Because I believe that being president is a responsibility

Not to be taken lightly.

A vote for stephanie

Is a vote for an active student council.

Everybody liked you!

? my name is snake ?

? make no mistake ?

? to you, I sez ?

? I want to be prez! ?

They loved you!

Joey jeremiah--

President of the stephanie kaye fan club

At your service.

Joey!

Hey, kiss me, too!

I'll vote for you.

Promise!

Okay, so long as you promise.

All right!

Oh, yeah!

I'll vote for you, too, steph.

Me, too.

Joey: Whoa, one at a time.

Don't forget about me.

Hey, one at a time!

Grade six was never like this.

Talk about sexism.

Okay, microchip.

Operation gorgo under way.

Good luck.

Astrodog to microchip.

Astrodog to microchip, come in, microchip.

Microchip to astrodog.

You see joey?

Not "joey"!

His code name's gorgo!

Anyway, situation positive in sector 1-b.

Where is sector 1-b?

It's on the map.

I'm proceeding to sector 2-x.

Where is sector 2-x?

The stairs, of course!

Shh.

All the way with stephanie kaye!

All the way with stephanie kaye!

Astrodog to microchip, red alert, red alert!

Take it easy.

She'll be out in a minute.

Gorgo located.

Avoid sector 2-c.

Repeat, avoid sector 2-c.

Message received.

Will avoid sector 2-c.

We want a kiss!

All the way with stephanie kaye!

We want a kiss!

All the way with stephanie kaye!

We want a kiss!

Kissing's got nothing to do

With the campaign.

It's just for the election.

Give people what they want.

That's what joey says.

Since when is joey so smart?

But it's working!

All the guys are going to vote for me.

The girls don't like it much.

If all the guys vote for me

And the girls divide their vote

I win.

Come on, voula, don't be mad at me.

I really want to be president.

We're a team, right?

You and me?

Students: All the way with stephanie kaye!

Joey: Here's stephanie!

Quiet.

If elected, I promise rock on the p.A.

More dances...

Co-ed swimming in gym.

Whoa!

With the girls in bikinis.

And steph in a bikini.

Whoa!

Without a bikini.

Yeah!

Take it off, steph!

Whoa!

Take it all off.

Vote for stephanie kaye

And who's to say what will happen.

Talk about pre-feminist!

Students: We want a kiss!

We want a kiss!

Whatever happens today

I'd like to thank someone

Who's been there from the beginning

Done so much

And been a wonderful friend--

Joey jeremiah.

Yah!

Students: We want a kiss!

We want a kiss!

This is disgusting.

All the way with stephanie kaye!

With the three students here involved in the election

At least three of you will know something about...

Attention, everyone.

I've got the election results.

First, I'd like to congratulate

All candidates on their campaigns.

Remember, it's not whether you win or lose

But how you play the game that counts.

Your new president is stephanie kaye!

Mr. Jeremiah!

Please, not in my class.

Save that for outside.

Now, this assignment

Is due on Tuesday at 3:25.

I will be out of the school at 3:26.

Class dismissed

Except for joey and hank.

Stephanie: Voula.

Voula.

Voula!

Stephanie, hi!

I'm susie rivera--

Your new vice-president.

My parents will be so proud.

So, you ready for tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

The student council meeting.

Congratulations, stephanie.

Thanks.

Well, I've kind of got plans.

You can't miss the first meeting.

You're president.

There's lots we should discuss.

Like co-ed swimming.

My parents won't approve.

Oh, doris wants to see you.

Doris?

Doris, the school secretary.

Yes, right.

Okay, bye.

Bye, thanks.

Oh, stephanie.

Come in.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

Mr. Lawrence asked me to remind you

About your speech next week

At the p.T.A. Meeting.

My speech?

We always lead off with a speech

From our president.

Thanks.

Yes, see you tomorrow.

Call you later.

Let me go.

This is against school regulations.

Come on, guys, let me go.

Help!

Come on, guys.

This isn't funny.

What are you doing?

Having some laughs.

Putting people in lockers isn't funny.

You're putting him in a locker?

He's just a broomhead.

You had it now, you weasel.

Oh, leave arthur alone.

You know this gurp?

Well... Sort of.

Maybe... No!

Just leave him alone.

Have you seen voula?

I have to write a speech for the p.T.A.

Joey jeremiah, speech writer

At your service.

What? You?

Sure.

I know lots about talking.

Start with a joke.

Something funny like--

"hello, ladies and germs."

End with another one.

The middle doesn't matter.

Great, thanks.

Where are you going?

Voula!

Oh, voula--

I've been looking all over for you.

I have to write a speech for the p.T.A.

Wait!

You used me.

I thought you'd be grateful.

I helped make the posters.

I wrote your speech.

I am grateful.

Sure, that's why you thanked joey.

Oh, that.

Sorry, but... You know.

No, I don't.

We're in grade eight now.

Boys like that sort of thing.

So do girls.

So do best friends.

But I won't be your friend anymore.

Take your stupid bracelet.

You're just a baby, a selfish baby.

Voula, wait!

You're on your own, miss president.

You and your new image.

I'm still going to be the best president this school ever had.

And I'll make a great speech to the p.T.A.

Even if I do have to write it myself.

I just wish there was someone to help me.

Steph, steph.

It's okay.

I just wanted to say

Thanks for saving me from joey.

He was just joking.

He's got an unusual sense of humor.

I don't know about junior high.

It's kind of different.

But I have met a new friend.

The classes are stimulating.

And I know the president

At least on weekends.

Something wrong?

I have to write a speech for the p.T.A.

I don't know how to write speeches.

I could help.

I'm good at speeches.

I was class valedictorian last year, remember?

Mrs. Gonzales said my speech was "perceptive."

Thanks, arthur, but this is junior high.

Okay, but don't say I didn't offer.

Oh, and say "hi" to mom for me.

Wait, arthur!

I need you.

You do?
