Plot summary
When Cory's plan to get his students to communicate face-to-face fails, he takes away their cell phones and assigns the class to prepare a discussion about whether technology has made people better. The whole class has trouble communicating, except for Maya, who is the only one in the class without a smartphone. The group goes to the library to do their research, where Riley and Lucas connect by talking about their interests and Maya discovers that she is a talented artist when given just a pencil and paper. When Riley tells Cory about her conversation with Lucas, he desperately tries to keep them apart and attempts to do so by returning their phones, once he realizes it was he who prompted these emotions into Riley.
Cory gives Maya a smartphone, and says to use it to communicate to him if anything beautiful happens in Riley's life. Cory also buys Maya an art kit, so she can express herself the way she wants to in life. Guest stars: Corey Fogelmanis as Farkle, Danielle Kennedy as Librarian, Taylar Hollomon as Myzell
