1. Joseph, meeting girls
is about to get a whole lot easier.
Copy !req
2. They've all got to go
to the bathroom sometime,
Copy !req
3. and now they'll have to go right by us.
Copy !req
4. Tell me honestly, is this hat cool?
Copy !req
5. My dad says it's cool.
Copy !req
6. Is it cool?
Copy !req
7. Mm.
Copy !req
8. So then I told him, "No way."
Copy !req
9. So, what brings you ladies here today,
hmm?
Copy !req
10. We're not coming out until you leave.
Copy !req
11. As most of you know,
Copy !req
12. next quarter will be the first time
you get to take electives.
Copy !req
13. Electives are classes
that you elect to take
Copy !req
14. and you are not forced to take.
Copy !req
15. I elect to take
Copy !req
16. nothing.
Copy !req
17. Man, Alejandro is so smooth.
Copy !req
18. Hey, this might be just what we need.
Copy !req
19. Think about it.
Copy !req
20. Why do guys like us keep striking out
with the ladies?
Copy !req
21. Because I'm weird
and you're chubby and kind of dumb?
Copy !req
22. Don't be ridiculous.
Copy !req
23. It's because we've had the same girls
in the same classes since the first grade.
Copy !req
24. Every girl here has heard all my jokes
Copy !req
25. and remembers you pooting
during the racial tolerance assembly.
Copy !req
26. What we need to do is find a class
with a lot of girls.
Copy !req
27. Girls that don't know us very well.
Copy !req
28. Yeah. We could pretend
we're from the future,
Copy !req
29. and we need to experiment on them.
Copy !req
30. Wait, this is why girls
don't like me, right?
Copy !req
31. Hey, Dad,
Copy !req
32. what elective should I take,
Copy !req
33. Peer Counseling or Hawaiian dance?
Copy !req
34. Oh, who am I kidding?
Copy !req
35. I humbly offer taro to your village.
Copy !req
36. Peggy, the boy.
Copy !req
37. Bobby, honey, not now.
What are we talking about?
Copy !req
38. Okay, I'll take peer counseling.
Copy !req
39. "The peer counseling program
is a way for teens to help teens or…"
Copy !req
40. Hah, "tweens in the complicated world
they find themselves,
Copy !req
41. through one-on-one dialogs
and active listening."
Copy !req
42. Oh, God.
Copy !req
43. It's all about when kids have problems,
they talk them out with other kids.
Copy !req
44. Bobby, no good ever came from kids
Copy !req
45. talking to other kids
about their problems.
Copy !req
46. Sweet, Lord, they've got auto shop,
in middle school.
Copy !req
47. Done deal.
Copy !req
48. But I want to meet girls.
Copy !req
49. I don't think there are girls
in auto shop.
Copy !req
50. You've got to think long term, Bobby.
Copy !req
51. Auto shop is where boys become the men
Copy !req
52. that girls will want
when they become women.
Copy !req
53. It worked for me.
Copy !req
54. The proof is in the pudding
and I am that pudding.
Copy !req
55. So Bobby is taking auto shop.
Copy !req
56. - That is so great.
- Wingo.
Copy !req
57. Yep, I'll buy him an old junker car,
then we can restore it together.
Copy !req
58. We'll stay up late fixing her up,
just me and my boy.
Copy !req
59. Then one day when we're all finished,
Copy !req
60. Bobby'll get in that car
and he'll drive away,
Copy !req
61. and then I can die a happy man.
Copy !req
62. - Yep.
- Mm, yep.
Copy !req
63. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
64. That's actually kind of sad, Hank.
Copy !req
65. Auto shop. Auto shop.
Copy !req
66. Are you sure this is a good idea?
Copy !req
67. No, but my dad says
it's one of those things
Copy !req
68. that'll make sense later.
Copy !req
69. I'm getting tired of those things.
Copy !req
70. Ribs.
Copy !req
71. Hey, Bobby.
Copy !req
72. What class is this? Chick class?
Copy !req
73. It's Peer Counseling.
Copy !req
74. I read a story on the Internet
that started just like this.
Copy !req
75. It ended nicely.
Copy !req
76. Give me a minute. Give me a minute.
Copy !req
77. My dad might be wrong on this one.
Copy !req
78. Isn't your dad gonna be mad?
Copy !req
79. Oh, it's football season.
I'm way off his radar.
Copy !req
80. Hi. I'm April, class advisor.
Copy !req
81. It's gonna be great
to have some boys on staff.
Copy !req
82. In case any guys ever decide
to admit they have feelings.
Copy !req
83. I'm having all kinds of feelings
right now.
Copy !req
84. Leave. Now. The both of you.
Copy !req
85. I am shocked at your behavior.
Copy !req
86. Can't you see we are here to heal?
Copy !req
87. Uh, uh, oh, man, gir… uh…
Copy !req
88. Dang.
Copy !req
89. It's false advertising.
Copy !req
90. This car was supposed to be a junker,
Copy !req
91. but it's in moderate to good condition.
Copy !req
92. The problem is, all our used cars
Copy !req
93. now decorate Hard Rock Cafes.
Copy !req
94. Oh, you boys must be here
Copy !req
95. about my car.
Copy !req
96. Oh, uh, I'm looking for something
that needs a little more work.
Copy !req
97. Sorry to, uh, make you… stand.
Copy !req
98. Oh, God, she's still coming at us.
Copy !req
99. Run!
Copy !req
100. Okay, who could tell me some major issues
affecting kids your age?
Copy !req
101. Depression.
Copy !req
102. Drugs and alcohol.
Copy !req
103. They took away our vending machines.
Copy !req
104. That was off the hook, you guys.
Copy !req
105. Off the hook.
Copy !req
106. Now, the most important rule to remember
Copy !req
107. is that you can't give any advice
to your patients, okay?
Copy !req
108. Great. So if we're all clear on that,
let's try an active listening exercise.
Copy !req
109. Hi. My name is Mary Seventh Grader,
Copy !req
110. and I feel bad about the body images
presented by television and magazines.
Copy !req
111. Amazing.
Copy !req
112. This face says I care.
Copy !req
113. I'm listening.
Copy !req
114. I can help you without giving any advice.
Copy !req
115. Now, here are your clients.
Copy !req
116. Jenny Medina is on this list.
Copy !req
117. I've always wanted to go out with her.
Copy !req
118. Whoa, whoa, whoa, Bobby.
Copy !req
119. Jenny Medina is off-limits.
Copy !req
120. So are all the other
student-slash-clients.
Copy !req
121. Yeah, right.
Copy !req
122. April, Connie here is under the impression
Copy !req
123. that we're not allowed
to date our clients.
Copy !req
124. Is that true?
Copy !req
125. It's absolutely true.
Copy !req
126. But what if a client
really, really likes you
Copy !req
127. and you really, really like her,
Copy !req
128. and you both agree to be cool about it?
Copy !req
129. These girls are vulnerable,
Copy !req
130. and you're in a position of power.
Copy !req
131. You don't want to take advantage of that.
Copy !req
132. - Do you?
- Well…
Copy !req
133. What about the other counselors?
Can I date them?
Copy !req
134. No clients, no counselors.
Copy !req
135. Are we clear on that, everybody?
Copy !req
136. Nobody can date anybody they meet here.
Copy !req
137. Okay, now, group hug.
Copy !req
138. Oh, Bobby,
Copy !req
139. maybe you should hug yourself.
Copy !req
140. So, you can't date any of them?
Copy !req
141. No.
Copy !req
142. Maybe I could still get
into Hawaiian dance.
Copy !req
143. Apparently, their culture
appreciates people my size.
Copy !req
144. It's closed out.
Copy !req
145. You're gonna end up in metal shop with me.
Like this.
Copy !req
146. It sucks.
Copy !req
147. It's all full of dudes and sharp things.
Copy !req
148. I guess I'll just have to help people.
Copy !req
149. Bobby, Jenny Medina is here.
Copy !req
150. I'll send her back.
Copy !req
151. Oh, my God, Jenny Medina.
Copy !req
152. Aren't you supposed
to say something or something?
Copy !req
153. I think you're supposed
to say something or something.
Copy !req
154. Okay, so I got invited to Debbie Reid's
slumber party, right?
Copy !req
155. I mean, like, so what?
I fell asleep first, and then
Copy !req
156. I woke up with my hand
in a bowl of hot water.
Copy !req
157. Do you think I should tell people
that her father's an alcoholic?
Copy !req
158. Oh, I'm sorry, I can only, um, listen,
and not tell you what to do.
Copy !req
159. I think I'm gonna tell people
her father's an alcoholic.
Copy !req
160. Wow, I feel kind of better.
Copy !req
161. Can I make another appointment?
Copy !req
162. Really? With me?
Copy !req
163. Yeah.
Copy !req
164. Bobby Medina.
Copy !req
165. Aren't you the kid they had to cut out
of the soccer net?
Copy !req
166. Uh…
Copy !req
167. I have to debate capital punishment
next period,
Copy !req
168. but I totally don't care, should I ditch?
Copy !req
169. I can't tell you what to do.
Copy !req
170. Only you can tell you what to do.
Copy !req
171. If I knew what to do, I wouldn't be here.
Copy !req
172. Now, tell me what to do.
Copy !req
173. Uh, ditch.
Copy !req
174. If you say so.
Copy !req
175. Hey, Bobby.
Copy !req
176. You were so right.
Copy !req
177. I was?
Copy !req
178. I ditched and it felt so good to ditch,
Copy !req
179. I ditched the whole day.
Copy !req
180. Hey, I might ditch tomorrow.
Copy !req
181. Fight. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
182. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
183. - Bobby, do something.
- Fight. Fight. Fight. Fight.
Copy !req
184. Dooley, I don't think
you want to beat up Randy.
Copy !req
185. I think you just want someone
to notice your new shoes.
Copy !req
186. They are pretty nice.
Copy !req
187. - They're new.
- Uh-huh.
Copy !req
188. Don't you want to let him go?
Copy !req
189. Bobby, you saved Randy's life.
Copy !req
190. I did.
Copy !req
191. These hands.
Copy !req
192. This brain.
Copy !req
193. I have the gift.
Copy !req
194. Dang ol' axle's busted.
Ol' engine's cracked too, man.
Copy !req
195. That ol' head gasket blown,
and dang ol' just a piece of junk, man.
Copy !req
196. It doesn't even have wheels.
Copy !req
197. Is this even a vehicle?
Copy !req
198. We've found Bobby's car.
Copy !req
199. You should've seen me with Dooley,
Copy !req
200. taking charge, setting him straight.
Copy !req
201. You know, when I was just doing
the listening thing,
Copy !req
202. I was pretty good,
but now that I'm giving advice,
Copy !req
203. I'm changing lives.
Copy !req
204. Bobby, you're not supposed to give advice.
Copy !req
205. Connie, you must be so tired
Copy !req
206. of having to follow
the rules all the time.
Copy !req
207. But I know why you do it.
Copy !req
208. You want your father to love you
like the son he really wanted.
Copy !req
209. But you can only be who you are.
Copy !req
210. Yeah, I know. I can't turn this off.
Copy !req
211. Well, I can't wait to see
the look on Bobby's face
Copy !req
212. when he sees this baby.
Copy !req
213. Nobody touches it.
Copy !req
214. Can I just replace the sump gasket?
Copy !req
215. It's right there,
Copy !req
216. - and I'm right here.
- No.
Copy !req
217. Man, just let me dang ol' tighten
that dang 'ol needle bearing right there.
Copy !req
218. - No.
- Damn it, Hank.
Copy !req
219. Can we at least pick the flowers
Copy !req
220. - in the manifold?
- No.
Copy !req
221. This is Bobby's car
and he's gonna be the one to fix it.
Copy !req
222. Here's the thing.
Copy !req
223. Problems don't take the weekend off
and neither should I.
Copy !req
224. So, if you wanted to talk
on Saturday night,
Copy !req
225. say, at the movies,
I'd be happy to clear my schedule.
Copy !req
226. Do you mean like a date?
Copy !req
227. Well, sometimes putting a label on things
is helpful.
Copy !req
228. So, if you're more comfortable
with terms like "dating"
Copy !req
229. and "boyfriend" or "making out,"
Copy !req
230. well, you're the patient.
Copy !req
231. Bobby, I've got a problem.
Copy !req
232. You know, I was just thinking
about the brain.
Copy !req
233. Fascinating organ.
Copy !req
234. It's your biggest organ.
Did you know that?
Copy !req
235. Um, I think it's your skin.
Copy !req
236. Well, maybe that's one of your problems.
Copy !req
237. You don't give your brain
the respect it deserves.
Copy !req
238. Wow. That's deep.
Copy !req
239. It really is.
Copy !req
240. Okay, so the problem is my boyfriend.
Copy !req
241. Boyfriend issues. Juicy.
Copy !req
242. You need to dump his ass.
Copy !req
243. But I didn't even tell you
about my problems yet.
Copy !req
244. He doesn't call enough.
Copy !req
245. He won't read your notes.
Copy !req
246. It all comes down
to "he doesn't think you're all that."
Copy !req
247. And you are, Stacey.
Copy !req
248. Thanks, Bobby.
Copy !req
249. So you really think I'm really "all that"?
Copy !req
250. Yeah, sure, why not?
Copy !req
251. Now, back to my brain.
Copy !req
252. Hey, Dad, I…
Copy !req
253. What the heck is that?
Copy !req
254. I didn't know if you were a Ford man
or a Chevy man.
Copy !req
255. It was the happiest problem
I've ever faced.
Copy !req
256. - You bought me a car?
- Yep.
Copy !req
257. Now, let's put that auto-shop training
to work.
Copy !req
258. What tool can I get for you?
Copy !req
259. Uh… a hammer.
Copy !req
260. A hammer?
Copy !req
261. Boy, have you been sleeping
through auto shop
Copy !req
262. or are you being funny?
Copy !req
263. Uh, you know, Dad,
I think your obsession with auto shop
Copy !req
264. stems from your unresolved feelings
about your father.
Copy !req
265. And perhaps, we should explore
some of those feelings.
Copy !req
266. Bobby, you know how I explore my feelings?
Copy !req
267. I fix my truck or your mother's car.
Copy !req
268. When Mr. Dauterive's wife left him,
we tuned up his Escort.
Copy !req
269. And when that little fella
from the Fantasy Island died,
Copy !req
270. we put the ant on top of Dale's van.
Copy !req
271. Well, that's one path.
Copy !req
272. But if I took Peer Counseling, I could…
Copy !req
273. Trust me, Bobby, when you're stuck
Copy !req
274. on the side of the road
with your girlfriend,
Copy !req
275. and you can do more than ask
your carburetor how it feels,
Copy !req
276. you'll be glad you took auto shop.
Copy !req
277. Okay.
Copy !req
278. And that is why I like air.
Copy !req
279. Okay, who's next?
Copy !req
280. Stacey Gibson.
Copy !req
281. I know all of you were expecting
to hear my report on the Desert Peccary,
Copy !req
282. but I've decided to do my report
on another pig, Tony Hesperia,
Copy !req
283. also known as Bastardis Boyfriendus.
Copy !req
284. She's my client.
Copy !req
285. That's right, Tony.
This relationship is extinct.
Copy !req
286. But I'll be fine,
Copy !req
287. because I've made a new discovery.
Copy !req
288. Good "I" statements.
Copy !req
289. Bobby Hill, an Awsomeus Guyis.
Copy !req
290. His characteristics are caring
and compassion.
Copy !req
291. He's so sweet and loving,
Copy !req
292. and he's always there for me
when I need him.
Copy !req
293. You're there for people.
Copy !req
294. Bobby, talking with you
has been the best thing
Copy !req
295. in my whole entire life.
Copy !req
296. This is for you.
Copy !req
297. Uh.
Copy !req
298. Let's not make a scene.
Copy !req
299. B-O-B-B-Y. I ain't got no alibi.
Copy !req
300. I love you.
Copy !req
301. Oh, man. Oh, man. Oh, man.
Copy !req
302. - Hi, Bobby.
- Whoa!
Copy !req
303. I was thinking about you at lunch,
Copy !req
304. so I went home
and I burned you some mixed CDs.
Copy !req
305. I didn't know if you had a player,
so I bought you a Discman.
Copy !req
306. Do you want to pick out our song?
Copy !req
307. It wouldn't be right for me
to accept the CDs.
Copy !req
308. But maybe I can meet you halfway
and keep the Discman.
Copy !req
309. Thanks.
Copy !req
310. Hey, you know what I realized?
Copy !req
311. We have, like, no pictures together.
Copy !req
312. You want to go to Sears,
get a bunch taken?
Copy !req
313. Uh…
Copy !req
314. Stacey, here is the thing.
Copy !req
315. As a counselor,
my ethics mean everything to me.
Copy !req
316. And since I'm already dating
one of my clients…
Copy !req
317. But… I broke up with Tony to date you.
Copy !req
318. I can't believe you did this to me.
Copy !req
319. I hear and respect your anger.
Copy !req
320. This isn't over, Bobby.
Copy !req
321. Bobby, you've got a drop-in patient.
Copy !req
322. Hey. Sometimes I have
these really weird urges
Copy !req
323. to, like, burn stuff down.
Copy !req
324. Now is not the time.
Copy !req
325. I think Stacey Gibson is stalking me.
Copy !req
326. No way. You've got a stalker?
Copy !req
327. This is serious.
Copy !req
328. You could probably make out with her.
Copy !req
329. Um, Stacey Gibson
is here to see you.
Copy !req
330. Run!
Copy !req
331. She's gonna take me down with you.
Copy !req
332. April, you gotta help me.
Copy !req
333. I'm having problems
with one of my patients.
Copy !req
334. It's an eating disorder, right?
Copy !req
335. Which way is it going, in or out?
Copy !req
336. No, it's just that this one girl, Stacey,
has gotten way too attached to me.
Copy !req
337. I've got a big date with Jenny Medina
Saturday night.
Copy !req
338. I don't need this hanging over my head.
Copy !req
339. Wait, Jenny's a client.
Copy !req
340. You're dating one of your clients?
Copy !req
341. I told you not to do that.
Copy !req
342. Yeah, well, that cow's
out of the barn, April.
Copy !req
343. You've got to help me.
Copy !req
344. Listen, I already dinged
Principal Moss's car,
Copy !req
345. I don't need this.
Copy !req
346. You're on your own.
Copy !req
347. Bobby.
Copy !req
348. Oh, hey, Jenny. I'm looking forward to…
Copy !req
349. Bobby, people are saying
that you drove Stacey Gibson crazy.
Copy !req
350. And I'm not looking for that right now.
Copy !req
351. Is everything okay, Bobby?
Copy !req
352. You haven't even touched your butter.
Copy !req
353. What was that?
Copy !req
354. Great dinner, Mom. Wow. What is this?
Copy !req
355. Pepper? Delicious.
Copy !req
356. Is that Dale throwing eggs
at our house again?
Copy !req
357. No, it's a girl.
Copy !req
358. That's one of my patients.
Copy !req
359. Patients?
Copy !req
360. I didn't take Auto Shop, Dad.
Copy !req
361. I took Peer Counseling instead.
Copy !req
362. Oh, the hammer.
Copy !req
363. Of course, I was so stupid.
Copy !req
364. I'm sorry, Dad.
Copy !req
365. I was counseling this girl Stacey
Copy !req
366. and I told her to dump her boyfriend
because he was…
Copy !req
367. Well, I don't know what he was,
but now she's stalking me.
Copy !req
368. Bobby, meet me in the garage.
Copy !req
369. Excuse me, young lady? Hey.
Copy !req
370. Nice shot.
Copy !req
371. I'll do it again.
Copy !req
372. Looks like you've got
a few more eggs there.
Copy !req
373. Why don't you go ahead and throw 'em,
Copy !req
374. then when you're done,
come on into the garage.
Copy !req
375. Stacey, here's a socket wrench.
Copy !req
376. I'm gonna ask you to refrain
from hitting Bobby with it.
Copy !req
377. Take off that distributor cap.
Copy !req
378. And, Bobby, find something metal
and tighten it.
Copy !req
379. Just tell me, Bobby.
Copy !req
380. Why do you like Jenny Medina
better than me?
Copy !req
381. Well, I guess Jenny validated me

406. Was it supposed to come off?
Copy !req
407. No, son.
