Susie: "It was good, I won a prize in a game in friendship class today." Shubie: "Friendship class? What's that?" Susie: "It's a new class where we learn how to be friends to others." Shubie: "What do you even do in friendship class?" Susie: "We play games, and everyone gets prizes at the end because our teacher says that we're all winners!" Susie walks away.

| - (Scene cuts to Nat, Shubie, Nancy and Frank having a barbecue at Frank's house) Susie walks over to Nancy and Shubie. Shubie: "Hi, Susie, how was your day at school?" Susie: "It was good, I won a prize in a game in friendship class today." Shubie: "Friendship class? What's that?" Susie: "It's a new class where we learn how to be friends to others." Shubie: "What do you even do in friendship class?" Susie: "We play games, and everyone gets prizes at the end because our teacher says that we're all winners!" Susie walks away. Shubie: "Friendship class? Can you believe that our kids now take a class about friendship?" Nancy: "Yeah, it's the new class that we in the parent-teacher association voted for to replace gym." Shubie: "What? Gym teaches you great life lessons and how to exercise! Friendship class teaches you nothing! Do you know when the next PTA meeting is? Maybe I should go talk to them." Nancy: "It's tomorrow. Oh, you're coming to support the vote for putting more expensive toilet paper in the bathrooms?" Shubie: "No, I was going to ask if they could let the kids have gym again." Nancy: "Oh, I wouldn't waste my time going then if I were you. The members of the PTA thought a lot about this and we realized that gym was just an unfair thing that told kids that others were better than them. You remember playing in gym when you were little don't you?" (Scene cuts to a flashback of Shubie and Nancy's gym class) Teacher: "Alright kids, let's play dodgeball!" Mabel gets hit by a dodgeball. Sadie gets hit by a dodgeball. Shubie throws a ball and the flashback ends right before it hits Nancy in the face. Shubie: "But gym taught us so many life lessons when we were kids. And anything's better then this friendship class they have now. What moron thought that that would be a good idea for a class?" Nancy: "The friendship class was my idea." Shubie: "Oh, (looks at her watch) well, we'd better get going, wouldn't want Susie and Billy to go to bed too late on a school night. Come on, Susie and Nat, it's time to go! Bye Nancy, have a nice day!" Shubie grabs Baby Billy, Susie and Nat, and walks away. (Scene cuts to Shubie sitting at the PTA meeting) President(looks at her watch): "It is now 7:00, and the PTA meeting will begin. Our first order of business is to take a vote on whether or not to put the more expensive brand of toilet paper in the school bathrooms. All who vote yes please raise your hands." Three women raise their hands. President: "All who vote no please raise your hands." The president and five other women raise their hands. President: "The vote does not pass." Mabel: "Oh, come on! How will I be able to wipe my bottom comfortably now?" President: "Our second order of business is Shelbie Peterson's request to let the students take gym class again." Shubie: "It's Shubie Peterson." President: "Oh, sorry. Wait, are you the same Shubie who was named the best softball player in the state in high school?" Shubie: "Yes." President: "Wow, I didn't know you still lived here. I played softball for Bikini Bottom too." Shubie: "Really? What year did you graduate?" President: "I graduated two years after you. I was a sophomore when you were a senior. Our team was pretty decent after you left, but obviously we weren't as good as your team was when they won back to back state championships." Shubie: "Thanks." President: "Oh, no problem. It's always great to take to another former softball player. Especially one that was as great as you were. Now back to the matter at hand, you may proceed." Shubie: "Well, I think that our kids should take gym class again, and that it would be way more beneficial to them than this friendship class they take now." Nancy: "But gym teaches kids that others are better than them, and that can really hurt their self esteem." Shubie: "Yes, but gym also teaches you valuable life lessons such as how to work as a team, and to never give up." Nancy: "But it can be very unsafe. What if they get injured during a game?" Shubie: "Kids can get injured by doing anything. Remember when Isabel accidentally hit herself in the face with a batting helmet when she was taking it out of her bag? Gym taught me very important information that I was able to use later in life. Without it, I don't think I would be the woman I am today." Nancy: "What are you talking about? You work at a clothing store in the mall, and you're a divorced mother of two who got remarried to the same man! Is anyone really taking her seriously?" President: "Please refrain from interjecting to Mrs. Peterson's argument, Mrs. Fishbowl. You may continue Mrs. Peterson." Shubie: "In conclusion, gym is a more productive class for our children to be taking than friendship class due to the fact that it teaches them valuable life lessons and how to become better people in the process." President: "Thank you, Mrs. Peterson. All who vote no please raise your hand." Nancy raises her hand. President: "All who vote yes please raise your hand." The president and the other seven women raise their hands. President: "Shubie Peterson's request to allow the students to take gym class instead of friendship class passes." The parents in the audience clap. President: "I really like the way you think Mrs. Peterson. How would you like to be a part of the Parent-Teacher Association?" Shubie: "I'd love too!" President: "Wonderful! Nancy Fishbowl?" Nancy: "Yes?" President: "You have been removed from the Parent-Teacher Association. Welcome aboard Mrs. Peterson!" The parents in the audience clap.
