Plot summary

When Kevin is partnered for square dancing with weird girl Margaret Farquar (Lindsay Fisher), he tries to avoid her--especially when she tries to become his friend, and also when Kevin's friends--and Wayne--tease him about her. Later, Kevin panics when Margaret unexpectedly shows up at his house, but after a while of visiting, Kevin finds out that Margaret is interesting to talk to. But deep down, Kevin still wants to be friends with her and came up with a solution when he sees her at school. They could be secret friends, but Margaret doesn't buy it, and is angry that Kevin was too weak to resist teasing and peer pressure.

Their brief friendship comes to an end, and Kevin later reflects that while he struggles to remember the kids he wanted to impress he never forgot Margaret. Guest-starring: Lindsay Fisher as Margaret Farquar. Recurring guest: Robert Picardo as Coach Cutlip. Absent: Danica McKellar as Winnie Cooper.
