Storyline

As a class project, the gang pairs up in mock marriages for the week. Slater's "marriage" to Jessie comes apart when he turns out to be the domineering type. Lisa's "marriage" to Screech is driving her crazy. Meanwhile, Slater tries to get Screech to break up Zack and Kelly's "marriage" so he can still have a chance with her. Written by Anonymous

Did You Know?

Goofs

When paired, Mr. Belding says that it's by last names. That would mean it would be alphabetical. Kelly and Zack are right (Kapowski and Morris), but Slater and Jessie and Screech and Lisa shouldn't be together. (Slater, Spano, Powers, and Turtle). Lisa should have been with Slater and Jessie should have been with Screech. See more »

Quotes

Screech: I smelled the roses once and a bee flew up my nose.
