Kate was in line getting lunch with Jerry when they both heard Eddie talking to Grace, one of the cheerleaders and the girl he had a crush on. "Hey, Grace." Eddie smiles. "Meatloaf and peas...Nice."

"This is hard to watch." Kate grimaced and Jerry nodded in agreement.

"You know what I do? Sometimes I take my corn nibblets and...Will you go out with me?" Eddie asked in a pleading tone.

Grace shakes her head, looking at him weirdly. "No."

"Well, now you don't get to find out what I do with my corn nibblets." Eddie remarked. Grace rolled her eyes and walked over to the table with the cheerleaders.  

Kate and Jerry walk over to Eddie after getting their lunch. "Dude, you gotta let it go with Grace, man." Jerry tells him. "You're just not her type."

Eddie furrows his eyebrows. "What's her type?" 

"You know, guys that do things big." Jerry replies. "The type of guy that stands out in a crowd."

"Hello? Have you seen my new scarf?" Eddie asks in disbelief. He grins. "It looks like a snake."

"Not that kind of thing." Kate sympathetically smiles as she and the boys get to the table where the rest of their friends are at, Ashton included. Since Ashton had started hanging out with Kim that also meant he started hanging out with the rest of the gang more. They all didn't mind him hanging out with them, they thought he was great. "Jer meant like doing some kind of big gesture." She and the boys sat down at the table, Kate sitting between Eddie and Ashton.

Milton furrows his eyebrows. "What's that smell?"

"It smells like actual food." Kim noticed.

"Actual food in the cafeteria?" Kate laughs in disbelief. "Kim, please. That's like a dream come true."

"Rina's right." Jack chimes in. "This is the school cafeteria. It is no place for actual food." He picked up his plate to proof his point and Kate's point, flipping the plate over and the food on it didn't budge at all. 

"How does that even stay on there?" Ashton's eyes widen. He gasps. "Maybe they glue the food on the plate."

Milton looks across the cafeteria in awe. "It's them." 

Everyone looked in that direction, looking in awe at seeing real food at the table the football team sat at. The football team were so special they had a blue VIP ribbon blocking off their section of the cafeteria and had an actual chef handing out real food to them. Kate honestly dreamed of being on the football team only because of the food she would get at lunch. 

"Here we go. The start of football season." Milton said.

"Look at them with their prime rib." Jerry rolls his eyes. "They think they're so much better than us."

"They are better than us." Kate sighed.

"That's hurtful," Ashton frowns. "But it is true."

"Ooh," Jerry smiles, pointing at one of the football players. "I'm going to go ask that guy if I can eat his fat."
