  • One of the overall most aggravating episodes of the series.

    Chris and Greg graduate from Middle School, and are excited to leave it behind. Though, Greg breaks to Chris that he is going to the Bronx Academy of Science instead of the public school, Tataglia. Chris is bummed out over this at first, but soon decides to get enough grant money to go to the Academy with Greg. Julius and Rochelle both agree after a little persuading. Chris gets into the school, but Miss Morello tells him just as school ends that the school realized his family was perfectly doing just as well as a white person's family should do, and they don't except him. This episode constantly made me crack up. Then again, all episodes of this show make me crack up, so it wasn't a surprise. I must admit though, it was very aggravating. it must be one of the overall worst episodes for Chris ever. He leaves school happy and excited, then a minute later, he is down in the dumps, he knows he won't see Greg at school ever again, and, oh yeah, he gets punched by Caruso at the very end.moreless

    This excellent season finale has Chris about to graduate junior high, which he is excited about doing. To his disappointment, however, Greg isn't going to the same high school with him; instead, he's going to a private high school called the Bronx Academy of Science. Also, Chris will have to go to an all-white high school with absolutely no friends, which is bad news for him. Chris decides to try hard to get accepted into the Academy so he can go to high school with his best buddy, so for that to happen, he needs to pass an admittance test, which he studies for and eventually passes. Rochelle even refuses to answer the stereotypical questions the interviewer, Mr. Perkins, asks, even though he got the ideas from Chris' teacher, Ms. Morello. Meanwhile, Julius invests some money in his brother Ryan's mixed tape business, which succeeds. However, unfortunately for Ryan, he is arrested for selling copyrighted music. In the end, Chris and Greg are happy with the fact that they're going to high school together, but Chris learns that the school has made too much money and refused to fund Chris' education. Fortunately for Chris, though, he and Greg get to hang out outside of school. At the moment, no one knows whether Chris will make any new friends at his new school or what problems he will have to face.

    In the B-story, Tonya is excited for her dance recital to perform in "Swan Lake," yet cannot perform due to an ankle injury her partner has suffered. That won't stop Tonya from going to her recital, so Rochelle promises to find a replacement for her injured partner. Drew fills in as Tonya's partner, and all's well.

    Overall, this episode has a great main story, a terrific subplot and is a season finale you don't want to miss.moreless

Chris: (narrating) I was still in shock, so I didn't have the presence of mind to smack her upside the head and run. Edit
