Spelling Bees
Cookie is nervous about Spelling Bee Day, a day where a selection of students take turns to spell. Each time a pupil misspells a word, they get disqualified. The Killer Bees, three spelling bullies, confident to win the competition, taunt Cookie who is also in the competition. In the 6th grade Cookie had choked due to pressure, and is worried to repeat this mistake. Ned is also in the competition, as well as Moze. The first student to spell a word wrong is forced to sit beside Mr. Gross, the school's grossest teacher, and unfortunately, Moze was the first to spell wrongly due to being competitor number two. The competition goes by quickly and soon only Ned who has lucky enough to get a string of easy three letter words, Cookie and the last Killer Bee are left. Ned gets out first when he's given his first difficult word and then the Killer Bee fails. Cookie knows that if he gets the next word right he wins but he starts to break under the pressure. Ned decides that he needs to help Cookie win the contest by imagining the audience in their underwear so he stands up and in front of the entire school takes off his pants. Soon, all of the other boys do the same and Cookie spells the final word correctly (which coincidentally is "victorious") winning the spelling bee. Guest starring: Carlos Pena jr

Famous quotes containing the words spelling and/or bees:
“We drove the Indians out of the land,
But a dire revenge those Redmen planned,
For they fastened a name to every nook,
And every boy with a spelling book
Will have to toil till his hair turns gray
Before he can spell them the proper way.”
—Eva March Tappan (1854–1930)
“In a valley late bees with whining gold
Thread summer to the loose ends of sleep....”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
