| SYNOPSIS
|
Coach Lubock intercepts a note being passed around in one of his classes in which someone
brags about being out with "the hottest Lubbock babe" the night before. He tries to use
it to scare a confession out of one of the girls, but Wendy, Cindy, and Connie all stand
up. After clearing Cindy, it comes out that both Wendy and Connie had been out with guys.
While Coach Lubbock uses sports analogies to try to convince Wendy to be less wild,
Elizabeth has a heart-to-heart talk with Connie, warning her that she's proned to get too
involved emotionally. When the straightforward approach fails with Wendy, Coach Lubbock
resorts to trickery, telling her he can tell what she's doing. But maybe it's not a trick:
he stops Cindy from sneaking out.

The girls have been given the task of finding part-time jobs to bring in some extra
income. They are not entirely successful. Wendy is distracted and ends up shopping.
Marie becomes a volunteer. Connie gets a less-than-desirable job in a meat packing
plant. Cindy, however, gets an $8 an hour job as a receptionist at a health club.
But she doesn't do any real work - they're just exploiting her appearance. Her
parents insist that she quit. When she does, she's replaced on the spot. Coach
Lubbock cheers her up, and Connie helps her to get an even better-paying job where
she works.

One morning, Elizabeth finds herself having a real conversation with God. No one believes
her until a tree branch comes crashing into the bedroom they would have been occupying if
they hadn't been out praying. The "miracle" generates a circus of attention, but nothing
more seems to be forthcoming from God. After a few days, everything is forgotten. The
only one who understands in the end is Father Hargis, who sees it as God trying to get
his attention. |

The Dinner Test is a Lubbock family tradition. Can prospective dates survive Coach
Lubbock's intense scrutiny, or will they be thrown out on their keisters? Wendy comes
up with a plan to get permission to go out on a date with someone (Bill) who would
never pass the test: bring in a substitute who can pass. She and Cindy recruit fellow
student Ed (better known as Matthew Perry of
Friends). He
excels as "Bill." Highlights include saying grace in Latin and expressing a desire
to become a teacher. He really likes Wendy, but she hardly notices him. Ironically,
her date with the real Bill turns out to be a bust.

with a non-existent teacher's conference. However, Marie answers a call from the
hospital, and she and Connie deduce that something is seriously wrong. Before the
day is out, everyone is grieving for the imminent loss of Coach Lubbock. Monsignor
O'Sullivan is even recruited to administer the last rites. When the truth comes out,
grief turns to irritation (and hemorrhoid jokes).

Connie wants very much to write something good enough to be included in the St. Augie's
literary journal, but she's blocked until her mother suggests she write about what she
knows. She produces purple prose about a purple rose. Although Duane and Sister Cyril
disagree, Father Hargis labels the story as pornography, and Coach Lubbock agrees. But
he's not really upset until Elizabeth tells him about her advice to write about her own
experiences. He forbids Connie to ever write again. She rebels and puts copies of the
story on everyone's lockers. Cindy and Wendy see it as titillation, while all the boys
wear purple roses. Meanwhile, Elizabeth manages to convince Coach Lubbock that he's been
wrong. With Connie on the verge of giving up on writing, he encourages her to continue
even if some people don't understand.

the dress rehearsal goes very roughly, and Connie is inclinded to pain the play. But
she doesn't want to hurt her father's feelings. She writes two reviews: a scathing
one after Coach Lubbock encourages her to tell the truth and a glowing one after
Elizabeth reads the first one and commands her to try again. Coach Lubbock happens
to be in the kitchen when a guy from the newspaper comes by. He's seen both reviews
and decides to turn in the pan, which nearly gets Connie lynched by the actors and
stage hands. Coach Lubbock gives them a pep talk, and the first real performance of
