Plot summary
Lisa Berlini has made up a list of categories she thinks is the definitive rating of eighth grade boys--called the "Lisa Berlini Poll." Kevin is chosen for "best eyes," while Paul's self-esteem falls when he is named the "brainiest." The boys then decide to retaliate by making their own poll about the eighth grade girls; but when Paul makes the unlikely choice of Kevin's mom for "best smile," Kevin is embarrassed, especially when his friends all agree. Paul then develops a crush on Norma when she says he looks "manly" with glasses, but she handles it well.
Paul and Norma then go to a chamber music concert together and when he gives her a rose, she lets him down easy saying he needs to find girls his age, but it should be easy considering how gentlemanly he was to her. Recurring guest: Sean Baca as Craig Hobson. Absent: Danica McKellar as Winnie Cooper. Note: Lisa Berlini (played by Kathy Wagner in Season 1) was only referred to in this episode but was never seen.
