Plot summary
We find out that Shelly's trouble with Parker stems from having to live in her popular brother's shadow. Laughed at in her attempt to become a cheerleader, Shelly joins the school bad guys, the Darksiders, led by Jimmy Joe Trout ( Rodney Eastman ), and is heading towards expulsion. Musso tries to understand how Larry qualified for an academic quiz contest. Frank ranks Larry intellectually below then-vice president Dan Quayle (known for his verbal gaffes). Larry concludes that cogito ergo sum (I think, therefore I am) means "I eat, therefore I am", a response acceptable to the judges. When asked how he knew that, Larry responds, " Existentialism ". Guest starring Dee Booher as Maxine, Kristen Corbett as Alice, Jayson Kane as Host, Tiffanie Poston as Janice.
