Mr. Terupt Falls Again

Peter’s mother turns up at one of his wrestling matches. Afterward, she angrily explains that Peter was accepted into Riverway but either has to go to another interview or write a letter explaining why he now wants to attend. Jeffrey is surprised that Peter is not coming back to school next year, but Peter yells at his mom and tells her he does not want to go. Jeffrey gets his first loss that day after the clicking of Peter’s mother’s shoes distracts him.

It is another exchange day, and the students are supposed to build boats to float at the Snow Hill Carnival. While Luke is helping Lexie, he sees that Derek has two bottles under his shirt pointing out like breasts. Derek tells Luke he will give him the bottles if Lexie gives him some of the tissues in her bra. Lexie laughs but then disappears; Peter is angry.

When the day begins, Lexie is happy that boys are noticing her; she has stuffed her bra with even more tissues. This concerns Danielle, who decides to pray for Lexie. Meanwhile, Lexie is grouped with Luke, Derek, and Jason as they attempt to make a boat for the Float Your Boat competition.
