I teach in Texas. State exams are given at different levels every year (the final year being in the 9th grade). Once the current exam is finished, it is greatly altered so students don’t get the same exam next year. The previous exams are then placed on the official test website, where they can be downloaded and used to “prep” students for the new exam. I used to work in a very small school district where the superintendent personally took over the science classes weeks before using previous exam questions to get students ready for the exam. I realize the story arc is working with the AP exams, but… ironic, eh?
Oh come on Steve Harvey, don’t leave us hanging for the weekend! We never even heard his response to Gil’s question as to how Chris did on the new questions. So what will his email say?
A) “I am flunking Chris.”
B) “I have no reason to believe Chris cheated. He’s still the best.”
C) “I didn’t realize Chris was a student in my class.”
D) “I accidentally gave Teddy a B- even though he’s not in my class.”
P1- Mimi: I’m amphibious. I give spankings righty and lefty.
P2- Gil: I always take 2 fingers of Pepe Lopez in my Countrytime Lemonade after a long day teaching youth golf lessons. What’s that? Parents on the phone asking about their missing daughter last seen at Milford Country Club?
P3- Mr. Rollins: Thanks for the invite. I must decline your invitation to go spelunking in Carbon Cave.
With this being Milford, no kid has probably EVER cheated or thought about it, so Chis is goin down on the skimpiest of evidence. Alexa and Pheebs will save the day though and expose teddy for the loser he is. Too predictable…..
In all reality , P 2 Look Mr & Mrs Thorp I’ve watched a lot of lawyer programs on TV and based upon what I’ve learned from watching them I am going to exercise my Fifth Amendment rights and not answer any more questions .
So based on his giving Gil advanced warning, since he’s the person most in charge of academics, certainly not the principal or superintendent, it looks to me like Steve Harvey has decided that Chris cheated and is flunking him based on absolutely nothing. And it will be up to Alexa to save the day somehow. Even though she already gave probably more “evidence” absolving Chris than there is that he may have cheated.
And speaking of evidence, there is ample evidence of humor in today’s installment of Mopped Up Thorp. And least in my oh so humble opinion.

P1, Chris was studying me at the pubic library.
P2, Well, not at the library but when Teddy offered it to me in the hall. . .
P3, You’re a lousy coach and it’s time to retire!

“I don’t know how Chris did on the new questions. Since they were new questions, I don’t know the answers either.”

p4 Rollins: I think Teddy Demarco is lying (pulling a prank). Chris failed the exam. I think his focus is elsewhere. (Hummana)

P3: Rollins, days from retirement, perhaps blackmailing Gil by threatening to blow the lid off loofagate?
