Episode Overview

As Thanksgiving approaches, the atmosphere is anything but festive. Guber is still reeling from his embarrassing serenade at the charity event. Football star Jason Harrelson finds himself in hot water after breaking bully Malcolm White's arm in a hallway brawl. Meanwhile, Buttle is once again the target of a humiliating cartoon created by Sheryl Holt. To top it off, Lauren uncovers a shocking club among seniors that rewards boys for sexual conquests. In light of the scandal, Principal Harper decides to hold a sophomore assembly to promote chastity. The teachers draw straws, and Lipschultz ends up leading the session. However, his dull speech takes a turn when he reveals that he caught his late wife in an affair. Later, Harper confronts Jason about the fight. Jason claims he was defending Anthony's honor using a technique Harper had taught. This leads to serious consequences, including a lawsuit from Malcolm's family.
