"Good morning Jessie," Luke said. He begins to dance. "Let's get this weekend started," He continues to dance.

"It's Monday," Jessie says to Luke.

"Urgh, wake me up on a Saturday," Luke said.

Ravi comes out wearing a sherwani.

"Hello good family. Who's ready to get their learn on?" He asks.

"Oh my, whatchu' wearing?" Jessie asked.

"It's my sherwani, only worn on very special occasions. Since my tutor says I'm now ready to start school with Emma and Luke, what a special day to wear it," Ravi explains.

"Maybe on a day when your nightclub act opens in Vegas," Luke joked.

"Luke, that happens to be a very beautiful traditional Indian Sherbubi," Jessie said.

"Sherwani." Ravi corrected.

"Sure... wani. My point is you look really great and I know Luke is going to look out for you today," Jessie tells Ravi.

Ravi goes back to his room.

"You better look out for him," Jessie says to Luke.

"How can I miss him? He looks like a traffic cone with hair," Luke said.

"Just go get dressed. Your teacher sent enough letters home that you've shown up in your underwear again," Jessie says.

"Okay, so you have history, then math, then shop, "Emma said to Ravi. "Just so you'll know shop doesn't involve shopping. I learnt it the hard way,"

Emma opens her locker.

"Thank you but do not worry, I've the school thing wired," Ravi says.

The school bell rings.

"Fire! Fire!" Ravi panicked. "I will save my new school!"

Ravi opens the cabinet and wraps himself with the hose.

"That was the school bell, not act-like-an-idiot bell." Luke explained.

"Alright, what does the idiot bell sound like, because I want to be prepared," Ravi said.

"I think you're prepared," Luke says.

"Class is starting, I gotta hassle." Emma said.

Emma tries to walk with her new shoes but struggles. She finds 2 students walking past her.

"Room 3-12, please." Emma tells them.

Emma places her arms on the students' heads for support as they all walk to her classroom.

The bell rings again.

"Fire, class or idiot bell?" Ravi asked.

"Class. Go!" Luke tells him.

Ravi runs away. Luke walks to his history class.

Luke sat down in his desk in the second row as class began.

"Okay, let me get back to jamming some learning in your heads, The Civil War." Luke's teacher, Cory said.

"The Civil Bore," Maya said.

"Thank you, future Mini-Mart employee of the month," Cory said to Maya sarcastically.

"Would I be making more money than you?" Maya asked.

Cory pauses for a moment. "The Civil War! Anybody?" He said continuing with his lesson.

"A war we fought against ourselves," Riley said.
