Wayne's former school is about to be closed and - emotionally attached to the school - he promises to get the money to prevent this. Anna is nearly date-raped.

The school's recess hall will be given to Bigelow Constructions, annoying the students. Beth leads Jodie and a reluctant Anna to protest, resulting in a suspended Anna.

In a maths test Thomas beats Anna who can't believe it and smells a big-time cheat. Only Beth has trust in him and the learning method she taught him. Later, Thomas must tutor Sam.
