"Ready to go to school?" Farkle asked Noah when he and Maya came over to Noah's apartment.

"Yeah, I am," Noah nodded.

"Let's go," Maya said.

The three friends headed out of the apartment and walked across the hall to get to Matthews' apartment.

The intercom buzzed when Maya pressed it.

"Maya." 

"Farkle."

"Noah."

Maya, Noah, and Farkle enter the apartment.

"Maya, Noah, oatmeal," Mrs. Matthews said.

"No thanks, Mrs. Matthews," Maya said.

"Yeah, I'm good," Noah said.

"Oh, I wasn't asking," Mrs. Matthews said.

"Yeow," Maya said, she and Noah walk over to the table.

"Yikes," Noah cringed.

"Farkle, you too," Mrs. Matthews said to Farkle.

Farkle closed the door. "Thank you. But my mother already made me eggs, home fries, wheat toast, marmalade, and a strawberry shaped like a star."

"I'm going to the Farkle's. Who's with me?!" Auggie, Riley's little brother, said, standing up.

"I am!" Noah said, standing up as well.

"Sit down. Eat it, please," Mrs. Matthew said to Noah and Auggie, giving both of them a look.

"But it's still this," Auggie gestured to the oatmeal.

Noah slumped down on his seat, disappointed.

"Hey, Auggie, guess what? It's Googly time," Mr. Matthews said.

"No TV at the table," Mrs. Matthews said.

"You're right, Topanga. This table is about the discussion of today's events only. Riley," Mr. Matthews turned to Riley.

"I woke up. I love everything. I sat here," Riley said.

"All caught up. Googly time!" Mr. Matthews said, turning on the TV.

Everyone, except for Auggie, began to sing with the TV, "Here comes Mr. Googly and his foogly boogly friends."

Auggie turned off TV.

"Hey!" everyone exclaimed.

"I'm too old for Mr. Googly," Auggie said, walking over to the couch.

"What?" Mr. Matthews said, following Auggie.

"But, Auggie, Mr. Googly's your best friend," Mr. Matthews reasoned.

Mrs. Matthews picked up a Mr. Googly doll and pretends to be it. "Auggie, I'm your foogly boogly best friend."

Auggie then asked the doll, "Can I tell you a secret?"

Mr.s Matthews, still pretending to be the Mr. Googly doll, said, "Of course. You can tell Mr. Googly all your secrets."

Auggie then said to Mr. Googly, "I have a new best friend now."

Mrs. Matthews as Mr. Googly doll, asked, "Oh really? Who would that be?"

"I don't wanna tell you who she is," Auggie told Mr. Googly.

"She?" everyone, except for Mrs. Matthews and Auggie, asked.

Auggie then said to Mr. Googly, "I've said too much."

Mrs. Matthews then said, "Okay, why don't you tell Mr. Googly all about your new best friend and none of us will listen."
