Episode Synopsis:
Mark’s math teacher sends a letter to Tim and Jill asking to meet with them, but when they ask Mark what’s going on in class he refuses to say. Mark has never been secretive and moody like this before, and Jill worries that something is wrong. Finally, Mark fesses up to Brad and Wilson about what the problem is: he can’t see the board from the back of the class, and he probably needs glasses - which will make him look like a dork. Brad and Randy pledge to beat up anybody who makes fun of Mark for wearing glasses, which gives him the confidence to ask Tim and Jill to take him to an optometrist.Sign up for our weekly newsletter to be notified whenever a new episode is released.
