Mr. Squashy announces that there will be a math test on addition and subtraction for Junior Asparagus and Laura Carrot, and multiplication and division on the rest of the students. Most of the students groan, except for Junior and Laura. Bob the Tomato thinks that tests in school are his worst nightmare, but Mr. Squashy tells him that tests are very important in school. because it would help students learn better in school, and he also tells him what happened that he'd better be in good behavior, because last time he had cheated in Mr. Jerrycone's class during the science test. A flashback of Mr. Jerrycone reprimanding Bob and Larry plays. After it ends, we go back to the present, where Mr. Squashy tells Bob that Mr. Jerrycone's class is right across the hallway in room 623, and that Mr. Squashy's own class is in room 624 next door to Mr. Jerrycone's class, and that Mr. Jerrycone does not tolerate cheating. Mr. Squashy also tells Bob that Mr. Squashy himself also takes cheating very seriously. He tells Bob that if he cheats, he will receive a zero in class, and 90 minutes of after school detention. A 5 minutes later time card follows, and Mr. Squashy hands most of the students multiplication and division tables, while he hands Junior and Laura addition and subtraction tables. He tells the students to try their hardest, but don't cheat. Meanwhile, Bob is struggling to work on his division problems, and realizes that Larry is easily doing the multiplication and division tables. He looks at all of the answers on Larry's paper, and then copies all the answers off of Larry's paper. A 1 hour later time card follows, where Mr. Squashy tells the students that the test is over and looks at the results, realizing that that 2 of the papers look exactly the same. He asks the students who cheated, and Bob dramatically answers that he was the one that cheated, after Larry tells him that Bob cheated. Mr. Squashy tells Bob that his actions have consequences, and that cheating was the worst thing he did in math class, he punishes Bob by giving him a zero and telling him that if he cheats again, he will receive Saturday school. Bob breaks down crying, and a 3 hours later time card follows, where he is stuck doing nothing but homework. A 90 minutes later time card follows and Bob the Tomato's dad, who angrily and sternly tells him that he will have a word with Bob in the car, In the car, Bob's dad punishes him by grounding him from television for a week. Bob dramatically tells him that he wants to Happy Crazy Wow Day at the park, and his dad tells him that it's not happening because Bob cheated in school. Bob groans dramatically, the car drives away, and the episode fades out.
