RevCam goes upstairs, thus allowing Martin to enter the kitchen. He offers to give Ruthie a ride to school, and she asks him if Zoe told anyone else in school about Margo's stupid jacket. Martin says she probably told as many people as she could, because she likes "feeling superior to other people." Glenoak High must be starved for gossip if a story about some freshman with a secondhand jacket is making the rounds. Martin says he got sick of Zoe's superiority complex, so he broke up with her. "You can't break up with her!" says Ruthie. "Uh...yes, I can," says Martin; "I did." Ruthie says that sometimes when people act like they're better than everyone, they're just covering for the fact that they really feel inferior. Martin rather angrily tells Ruthie that if she has something to tell him, she should spit it out. Ruthie remains quiet. Martin says it doesn't matter anyway, because he doesn't like Zoe. At all.

Sam tells Vid about how he and Ruthie stayed up all night eating cookies and Lucy read lots of stories to him. Oh, man, Kevin must have been so pissed that his wife was off reading to her brother instead of having sex with him. Vid asks Sam to fake sick today so that Vid can get a chance to hang with Ruthie. RevCam runs in and says it's time to go to school. Vid reports that Sam is sick. Sam says he isn't. RevCam asks what's going on.
