Omg! Itâs our first real Caitlin episode! The episode starts off with the grade 7s in Ms. Averyâs class. Caitlin tells Susie about how Ms. Avery is the best teacher ever. Ms. Avery asks Caitlin to go up to her desk. Ms. Avery tells Caitlin that her essay was great, and that sheâs the best student sheâs ever had. Kathleen, being the little bitch she is, starts running her mouth. âMs. Averyâs gay, you know. Sheâs a lesbian,â she says. So what, Kathleen? Ms. Avery tells Caitlin that she doesnât care what everyone else says. The whole class starts gossiping, which makes Caitlin uncomfortable. Caitlin then wakes up. It turns out she was just dreaming.
Caitlin is now awake, and itâs time for school. Ugh, reality. Waking up is hard to do. Anyway, Caitlin is talking to Susie on the way into school about a sleepover or something. Rick says hi to Caitlin as he rides his bike past the girls. Caitlin is in love. Susie takes a picture of Rick for some reason. Weird. Kathleen is sitting on the steps with some other girl, and they watch as Ms. Avery gets dropped off at the school by another woman. Kathleen wonders if the rumors about Ms. Avery being a lesbian are true. The other girl tells Kathleen that theyâre just rumors. Kathleen replies that sheâs never seen Ms. Avery with any men. Maybe because your teacherâs love life is none of your business, Kathleen?
In the dark room, Caitlin tells Susie that sheâs been having weird dreams lately. Susie tells Caitlin that dreams are supposed to reveal your inner desires. Susie asks Caitlin to tell her about her dreams, but Caitlinâs like, ânoâ. Susie thinks theyâre about Rick. Caitlin tells her that theyâre not.
Aw man! We got a Yick and Arthur scene. These bore me so much. Yick and Arthur are doing a presentation in class. No one cares about their presentation over the neighborhood watch program. Seriously.
In the hall, Kathleen and that other chick, I think her name is Annie, see Ms. Avery talking to Raditch. Annie thinks it would be romantic if they were having an affair. Kathleen tells her that âlezziesâ arenât interested in men. Melanie asks Kathleen whatâs wrong with being gay. Kathleen then asks her if sheâs a âlezzieâ too. Melanie says, âno, but Iâm not prejudiced either.â This is one of the many reasons why Melanie is 1000x better than Kathleen. I dislike Kathleen very much.
UUUUGGGGHHH. More Arthur and Yick. Not gonna go into detail, just that Mr. Yu the Disorganized has a very messy locker. Arthur says that their project over neighborhood watch was stimulating. Okay, Arthur. Okay. Yick apparently lost $20 in his locker. Boring. Arthur jumps to the conclusion that someone stole it. No, it couldnât possibly be in that pile over papers thatâs overflowing from Mr. Yu the Disorganizedâs locker.
At Caitlinâs sleepover, that Annie chick prank calls Mr. Raditch. Okay. The prank call was really lame. Now Caitlin has to prank call Ms. Avery. She doesnât want to, but does it anyway. When Caitlin calls, some lady picks up and tells her that Ms. Avery isnât home. Kathleen thinks the lady was Ms. Averyâs girlfriend. Caitlin says that itâs just a rumor that Ms. Avery is a lesbian, but Kathleen says that everyone knows sheâs gay. Blah blah blah, more Kathleen making stuff up, blah blah blah.
A few days later. outside of the school, Kathleen and Annie see Ms. Avery get dropped off by that lady again. But this time, they see Ms. Avery kissing the lady on the cheek.
Weâre back to the useless Arthur and Yick subplot. Apparently they bought some fingerprint thing that theyâre gonna use to figure out who stole Yickâs $20. Arthur says that they need a prime suspect.Â
Rick comes by during class and offers Caitlin some licorice. He says heâs rich now, because he won $100 in the lottery. You win $100 in the lottery and you spend it on licorice? Why? Kathleen spreads more rumors about Ms. Avery during class. Kathleen asks Caitlin if she heard about the kiss. Melanie says that she heard it was just a peck. Itâs obvious that Melanie is getting tired of Kathleenâs shit. I mean, I am too. Kathleen is so annoying. Once class starts, Kathleen raises her hand to ask Ms. Avery if she has a boyfriend. Kathleen doesnât know how to mind her own damn business. Ms. Avery answers that question in the best way possible. âHundreds, but I donât know what business that is of yours.â SAVAGE.
Meanwhile in the land of Arthur and Yick, they suspect Rick was the one who stole Yickâs money, because they donât believe he won $100 in the lottery.They think he stole the licorice. Enough of this plot. Back to Caitlin.
In the dark room, Susie is wondering if lesbians really kiss and stuff. Caitlin is fed up with this rumor about Ms. Avery and basically tells Susie to shut it for once. Susie brings up the fact that Ms. Avery likes to touch people. That sounds wrong. She likes to touch people, but not like that. Ugh. This sounds wrong either way.
That night, Caitlin has another dream about Ms. Avery. Itâs pretty much the same dream as last time, except this time the class is gossiping about Caitlin being a lesbian.
Arthur and Yick are now spying on Yick at school. Damn. What is with these two and spying on people? First Snake, and now Rick?! Seriously. Thatâs really creepy.
Uh oh. Kathleen and Annie are now spreading rumors about Caitlin being a lesbian too. Why canât they mind their own business? So what if Caitlin is questioning? Leave her alone. Kathleen says to Susie, âI wouldnât want to be in a dark room with her, in case she tries something.â This upsets Susie.
Ugggghhhh Arthur and Yick are following Rick. Leave the dude alone. He didnât steal your damn money, Yickâs locker is just too damn messy and he canât keep track of his own belongings. Oh my god. They follow Rick in the bathroom and watch him as he takes a piss! Thatâs just nasty! He catches the two boys watching him, but just assumes that they want licorice, so he throws licorice at them. So done with this plot line. Seriously.
After school in the dark room, Susie is babbling on about random shit that no one cares about. Caitlin asks her whatâs up, because apparently thatâs not normal for Susie. Susie says thatâs sheâs just excited about the pictures. When Caitlin accidentally touches Susie when hanging up a picture, she freaks out. Caitlin asks her whatâs wrong again. Susie then asks Caitlin if sheâs a lesbian. She tells Caitlin that some people have been saying that she is, but Susie tells them that sheâs not. Caitlin gets pissed off, and leaves.
That night Caitlin has a conversation with her teddy bear about everything thatâs been happening. Aww! She tells Mr. Teddy that she doesnât want to be different.
The next day in class, Ms. Avery hands the students back some papers. When she gives Caitlin hers, she touches Caitlin lightly on the shoulder. We just saw her do this to Alex as well. Caitlin tells her not to touch her, which earns her some looks from the class and confusion from Ms. Avery. When the bell rings, Ms. Avery asks Caitlin to stay after class. Ms. Avery asks Caitlin whatâs going on. Caitlin tells Ms. Avery about the rumors going around that she (Ms. Avery) is a lesbian. âReally?â Ms. Avery asks. Ms. Avery clears up that the woman she is always hanging out with is her roommate, not her girlfriend. Caitlin says that people are saying sheâs gay too, because of her dreams. Ms. Avery tells her that her dreams are normal.
UGH! NOT MORE ARTHUR AND YICK CRAP. Rick catches the two spying on him again, and asks them why theyâve been following him. They accuse him of stealing the money from Yickâs locker. Rick tells them that theyâre crazy, and to stop following him around, because he didnât steal any money.
They then find the money is Mr. Yu the Disorganizedâs locker. The end of that stupid plot.
The episode then ends happily with Caitlin and Ms. Avery getting everything sorted out.
