bobby is mistaken for a high schooler accidentally, and the other high school guys feel bad for him because he fakes having a kidney disorder. and things only get worse when they hear that connie supposedly is part hamster. what will happen when bobby reveals the truth?

good episode and really one of my personal favorites of the series. i really like the humor and the story in this one and i consider it a fine classic, and a great way to end the 5th season. my overall grade for this episode is going to be an A+, great offeringmoreless
