Sam takes it upon himself to finish high school. He was only one course short. Of course, Diane makes fun of him. He and Coach take the class together. Sam gets his grades by sleeping with his cute instructor while Coach busts his butt. But some sense of morality comes into play eventually. I loved the Coach's method for remembering facts.
