Settling In

Roland avoids "GCE" (Gripper's Cash Enterprise) by accompanying Miss Mooney through the school gates. Gripper nabs Zammo and Jonah's cash, but they have no intention to continue paying him indefinitely. Roly cuts himself in woodwork - did he do it on purpose so he could go home? Annette wants revenge against Zammo and Jonah for their stink bomb damaging her shoes, and buys her own stink bomb. Jonah and Zammo goes to see Mr. Hopwood to try to get something done about Gripper, but without confrontation. Mr. Hopwood accuses Gripper, who denies it, but is forced to empty his pockets and donate the sizable amount of money to the school fund. Roly's mum finds Roly at home, and angrily brings him back to school to talk to Mrs. McClusky. Annette lies in wait for Zammo with her stink bomb, she throws it, but her aim is off and she gets Gripper instead.

Claire's mother speaks to Mrs. McClusky concerned that her daughter is too innocent for the forthcoming biology lesson. How did Matthew Cartwright lose his trousers?

Text Books

School cuts are being noticed, what with the lack of a Technical Drawing teacher, and book shortages. The Computer Club wants to buy a new computer for £1200, and the PTA tries to come up with some fund-raising ideas. A "Sponsored Spell" is on the cards. Can Gripper spell any other word than "G.B.H"? Gripper sees the text book shortages as a way of earning money, getting his supplies from St. Mary's girls. He ropes in Pogo as an unwilling accomplice to sell them. Unfortunately, Gripper's muggings have not gone unreported, and a spot inspection by Mr. Keating brings the sorry business to an end. The money raised towards buying a computer gets used instead for buying new text books.

Belinda's mum is annoyed when she finds out the loss, but the clarinet is insured: Fay and Annette have to fork out the first £20 from their savings.
