Courtney's attempt to make Chef a better teacher fails when a squirrel gets his hands on her mind-control device.
Plot[]
The episode begins with Chef happily stating that he cut off a logging truck and the children begin cheering until Courtney asks why it was good news. Chef complains that Courtney is always bringing them to frown town which she gets offended by. Chef says that the children can practice log counting now. Duncan uses this as an opportunity to crush Cody and knock over Beth and Harold. Chef congratulates Duncan on his counting until he gets a call from the school board saying that log counting was banned years ago. It is then revealed that it was just Courtney pretending to be Janice from the school board and that she always calls when Chef he does something she doesn't like. Chef does multiple other incidents which include flushing Cody down the toilet, flinging Cody into the sky without a parachute after the mean squirrel stole it and watching Cody be eaten by a snake. Chef then catches Courtney and crushes her phone.
Courtney realizes her school board trick won't work anymore and decides to use a mind control bracelet that she saw in a commercial. She first tests it on Duncan by making him sing Mary had a little lamb. She walks off to find Chef just as the mind control on Duncan wears off. Duncan asks if he was really singing and Cody says he was and shows him a video that he posted online but grimaces after checking on it and warns him not to read the comments. Duncan then get angry and chases Cody when Beth and Harold warn him to run away.
The scene cuts to Owen who complains to Chef about the squirrel living in the treehouse stealing the children's things. Duncan is then briefly seeing chasing Cody with a golf club in the hallway. The squirrel stole Owen's ball, Beth's retainer and Harold's comic book. Owen told the squirrel to stop stealing things but the squirrel didn't listen. Chef then cuts Owen off with his stop listening bell and tells him to simply play with something else. Courtney then barges in much to his annoyance. Courtney tells him that his bad teaching is getting in the way of her education. She tries zapping him with the mind control but realizes the cranium controller is missing. She runs out to find it stating she will be back. Chef says he will be there but get excited when Duncan punts Cody into the sky saying that it's the highest he's ever gotten.
Courtney is seen searching for her device until she realizes that the squirrel has it. She tries to take it back until the squirrel accidentally uses it and realizes it purpose. Courtney runs from the squirrel trying to zap her and it runs into the daycare zapping the others. She asks if the day can get any worse until it does when Duncan and Beth are zapped too. Courtney asks Harold for help and he says the exact same thing happens to him with a pigeon on his street. A scene is then shown of Harold cooing in a tree and messing up his mother's car. He promises to help. He says he knows where the kill switch is and is a matter of stealth. He fails and is zapped. Courtney runs inside where Chef is reading a book about aliens and realizes everyone is missing. Courtney tries to say everyone is there in spirit but tells the truth after Cody coughs up 2 peanut butter jars. Chef gets angry when Courtney blames him for making her take drastic action but decides to take care of the problem. Chef dresses up as a female squirrel and when Courtney questions his actions tells her he went to teacher's college. He dances and attracts the squirrel's attention. The squirrel still zaps him and Courtney is surrounded by the other kids before getting zapped after saying a lot is going to change. The episode ends with a modified version of the intro that involves multiple squirrel themed changes with the squirrel zapping the screen at the end.
