Tom: Where you going? It's only eleven.

Yeah, I just, I've got so much to do tomorrow,

so I'm gonna go now.

Well, hey, don't forget your autograph?

The one for your friend?

Right. Thanks.

I had a good time.

Thanks.

So, I'll see you at the T-bombz shoot?

Yeah, I'd be surprised if we didn't.

Hey, wait, wait. Wait.

What's this for?

It's for a taxi.

Can't have you walking home at this hour.

Someone could take advantage of you.

Thanks.

See you around.

Count on it.

Waltzing in at midnight on a school night

is not acceptable.

(Sighs)

Does that seem like a good answer?

I was with the modeling people, mom.

You know that's important.

That doesn't mean you can be irresponsible.

You have school. We had a deal.

I know, mom, but...

I was scared that I wasn't gonna get this job and...

I know how much you want it, but-

(Cell phone rings)

Hello?

Yeah.

Yeah?

Really?

Yeah! For sure.

Okay.

Yeah, okay. Bye.

(Snaps phone shut)

I got it!

I'm the T-bombz girl!

Both: (Excited squeals)

You worked so hard for this.

You deserve it!

Oh, I'm proud of you!

(Clears throat uneasily)

Yeah, I... I can't believe it.

Both: (Laughing)

ENIAC, was the first general purpose computing system.

In English, please.

Didn't you learn that in grade nine?

How could our parents have given birth

to such different children?

Clare: You know, siblings only share

about 50 percent of their DNA.

Darcy: Which would explain why you're wearing

a private school uniform at a public school.

(Books clatter)

♪♪

See?

A guy like that might actually talk to you

if you weren't wearing that ridiculous uniform.

Well, it's a good thing I'm here for school

and not for boys.

That guy didn't even know enough to wear a helmet.

Still, you could at least look like you go to Degrassi.

Look at Sav's sister.

I don't want to see you to lose out on any opportunities,

just because people think you're...

different.

How can you dress like that?

If mom and dad see you in those shoes,

they'll kill you.

And me!

So they won't find out.

Otherwise, I'll tell them about Anya.

Connor: ...Not magnesium.

Who's that guy?

He's in my seat.

Some new kid, I guess.

Connor: But why is he in my seat?

Um, excuse me, is this your first day?

It is. KC.

Clare. Um...

I think you're in the wrong place,

this class is for gifted students.

(School Bell ringing)

Okay...

First off, I would like to introduce our newest student.

KC, you wanna stand up.

Now he's just settling in, so um...

Clare, why don't you show him around

after class, okay?

Now, without further ado, principal Sheppard,

to say a few words.

Sheppard: It's "the Shep."

There's no denying it, you're different.

Um, what "the Shep" means is uh...

You're a unique class with unique skills.

That some might consider weird.

Simpson: Intellectual pursuits can enhance

the educational experience.

Sheppard: Right. You wanna enhance your education...

Anya: So, we heard.

Dish.

Holly J: Guess you pulled a fast one on them.

Danny: Is Tom Blake as cute in person?

Uh, sure.

Oh, and um...

This is for you.

You're the best, you know that right?

Okay.

Danny: Uh...

Thanks again.

Oh, uh... It's not a big deal.

Just a job perk.

That is sweet. Isn't it cool?

So cool.

Yeah, I know. I got it.

So, these are our lockers.

Um, yours is... right here,

uh... next to mine, I guess.

You better stick around.

I might have trouble opening it.

And that way is the library

and the other way, the cafeteria.

You're not gonna tell me where machine shop is?

Special ed?

Look, I'm sorry.

I just, I didn't think you'd be smart.

You just don't look-

Like a private school snob?

I am not a snob.

Then why do you dress like that?

Because it's comfortable,

and I don't care

what other people think about me.

Everyone cares what other people think.

It's human nature.

Clare: Well not me, and that concludes our tour.

P.A. announcement: Attention please.

Students are reminded that (Unclear) is starting now

in the cafeteria.

Bruce: There once was a man from Nantucket

who saw a flying fish and wanted to duck it.

The man zigged, the fish sagged,

the man fell in the lake

and the fish ended up in a bucket.

Anya: Where's my poem, Sav?

It'd go like,

Dearest Anya, I miss you when you're goneya,

lol.

Last week was a freebie, niner.

Time to find your own friends.

Connor: We need fuel, oxidizer,

colour chemicals, binder...

What're you doing?

Which holds the pallet together,

and a chlorine donor.

He's explaining fireworks to me.

KC: Eating with the brains?

Sounds... Comfortable.

That's right.

Because you don't care what anyone else thinks.

I told you, I don't.

How about this?

If you really don't care what anyone thinks,

then get up there and display a talent.

Derek: I can't juggle all day long, people.

In fact...

I can't juggle at all!

So, who's the next victim, Degrassi?

Hmm?

Someone?

Minor niner. All right!

Here you go. It's all yours.

I'd like to perform a hymn.

♪ Who so beset him round ♪

♪ With dismal stories ♪

♪ Do but themselves confound ♪

♪ His strength the more is ♪

Guy: Boooo!

♪ Though he with giants fight ♪

Students: (Mocking laughter and booing)

Derek: Hey... so that was a great hymn.

(Snickers)

Leia: Wow, the T-bombz girl?

It's all over the blog. You must be excited.

Excited and nervous.

Especially for tonight's press conference.

My mom and Bella are gonna be there, but...

You know what? It'd be great to have a friend,

if you're free?

I'll have to check with my people.

Leia and Mia: (Chuckle)

Better not read about your bad behaviour

in the tabloids tomorrow.

It's okay, I'll have Leia to keep me in line.

(Tires screech, car engine rumbles)

Wow!

(Engine rumbles)

Hey, T-bombz girl!

Thought you could use a ride to the studio.

Enjoy the ride!

I'll meet you there tonight.

Have fun.

Uh, see you tomorrow?

Uh, sure.

Okay.

Oh, it's a school night.

It would be helpful for Mia to meet the T-bombz investors.

Where are you going?

This isn't my scene, okay?

Okay, if you don't stay, I'll look bad.

You don't really need me for that.

Leia, I thought you were my friend.

Which is why I'm telling you it's time to leave.

(Exasperated sigh)

Leia: How far are you gonna go to impress?

It's at an adult party,

stuff happens, okay?

And for me, it's just part of the job.

Sure.

Be our little secret.

Does that work for homework, by any chance?

Does now.

Say "hi" to Tom Blake for me!

Thank you, principal Sheppard.

It's "the Shep."

Oh. (Quiet titter)

Let's explore my favorite gas, hydrogen.

Nice of you to join us, Ms. Jones.

Chantay: How was the press release thing?

Did you party with Tom all night long?

Finally have your first photo shoot,

you sure you're ready?

Mia: I was born ready.

Mr. Bince: Would you girls like to take over from here?

Perhaps you'd like to start by listing the inert gases.

Fine.

Lady T-bombz?

Assignment for me?

If you fall far behind this early,

you won't catch up.

I know what you're saying...

So how was the rest of your night?

You'd know if you had stayed.

I'm not the partier like you.

It was work, not play.

Oh, you're like a bad cliche,

sleeping your way to the top.

Shut up!

Y- You did!

You slept with Tom to get the job?

Bince: Tomorrow we'll introduce chlorine to acetylene

with explosive results!

Judge all you want.

Of course, it'll be lonely with no one to listen.

Let's go.

Chantay: What're you wearing?

Do you get to keep your clothes?

Anya: Do you get to spend more time with Tom?

P.A. announcement: Attention, students. A brief reminder...

Connor: Um, aren't we going to the cafeteria?

We usually eat in the cafeteria.

Clare: I thought we'd try some place different, today.

Nice pipes yesterday, little Edwards.

Between the voice and the outfit you could be on idol.

The blooper reel, at least.

I think we should eat in the cafeteria.

Clare: Uh, hey, Connor?

Uh, is there any way to make fireworks brighter?

Connor: Well, you make them brighter

by adding compounds with more oxygen

and...

You're in my seat.

Sorry. Heh.

So, um, how do you make other effects?

Connor: By mixing other additives.

Titanium makes sparks,

zinc makes smoke clouds,

calcium deepens colour.

You can add trace amounts of metals

that burn at high temperatures to...

Danny: Leia.

You've gotta help me out.

Mia's playing me hot and cold.

Do I have a chance? What's her game?

You don't want to know.

But you're friends, right?

Were friends.

And the cause of the sudden break up?

Let's just say Mia's more adventurous than I am.

Adventurous, how?

She slept with Tom Blake to get the job.

So do you have a chance?

Maybe.

Do you want it?

Moore's law says that computing power doubles

Sheppard: Howdy pardner.

Need a word with your special class.

Hi.

Some of you have been eating in here.

Now, these computers are expensive

and they don't like Mayo.

So please eat only in designated lunch areas.

I suggest the caf'. With me?

Ooh.

That's it.

'Cause it's got such great entertainment.

Huh, Clare?

Class: (Laughs)

Simpson: Um...

Guys, settle down. All right, settle down.

Um... where were we?

Um, let's keep our mind on the class, all right?

Clare.

What, didn't get your digs in class?

Alli was joking.

Are you all right?

I was until you had me make a fool of myself.

I'm sorry.

I was just trying to prove you care what people think.

Mission accomplished.

KC: So now it's back to hanging only with the smart kids?

Students: (Hum of overlapping chatter)

They get me, okay?
