Cut Day

We're in the middle of a student council meeting. The nerds want a day of mourning for the 25th anniversary of the cancelling of "Gilligan's Island." I'm with them. Also, some hippie named Graham proposes that the students need to do something about all the plastic foam cups used in the school. But there's a bigger problem. Tomorrow is the annual Senior Cut Day, and Belding knows. And anyone caught skipping will get an unexcused absence, and ten absences means suspension. And guess who happens to already have nine absences? Zack needs a plan, but don't worry. The King of Cut Day will find a way out. He's so confident that he bets Slater $100 he can skip.

Zack pays off a nerd to lie about a ridiculously high overdue book fine. We're at the Max and Slater is hitting on Kelly big time. Zack shows up looking for his money, but Slater specifies that he has to skip out on every class of the day.

Belding's car is being towed because he parked it in a red zone. Guess who painted the curb? We're at the movies now, and Slater is bashing Jessie. If she's no fun, why is he dating her? Anyways, Zack pops in to say hello, and Slater and Kelly were getting pretty close. Trouble in paradise?

Belding thinks he finally caught Zack skipping, but he joins in on the hippie protest with Jessie and Graham. Genius. Jessie's upset because she's trying to save the world, and no one cares. But Grant feels the exact same way, and they share an embrace. What a cut day. Some people are ditching classes, and some people are ditching each other!

Time for a beach party. Slater's showing off some of his moves, and Kelly's showing off a lot more. Slater gives her a sunscreen rub down. Zack shows up dressed in a custodian jumpsuit and says the janitor is rocking a blonde wig in class. Brilliant.

Mrs. Culpepper gets a telegram, and she's won $2 million bucks in the lottery! Zack gets a call on his phone, and we learn Slater was behind the whole thing. Belding's staying in the class to make sure Zack doesn't cut out. There's no way Zack can win the bet now, right? Luckily, Belding skipped lunch and Zack just happens to have some chocolate covered grasshoppers from Screech. Belding runs off to the bathroom.

It's 3:30, and Zack comes in late. Looks like he owes Slater 100 smackers! But we have bigger issues people. Jessie shows up to the Max with Graham! Slater's not mad because he had such a great time with Kelly. Jessie and Slater decide to see other people, and everyone's happy. And, you guessed it people, we never see Graham again. It's a disturbing trend.

QUOTES!

Jessie: We were discussing the obvious benefits of a woman president. It's long overdue.

Zack: Yep, just like a woman. Always late.
