Added DiffLines:

* ArtisticLicenseEducation: Usually detention is an hour long after school where a student has to do homework and or reading; it's clear that the Detention Warden has abused his authority, since it's obvious more than an hour has passed.

! ! Air Date

* 19 November 1997
!! Picture Day synopsis:
Dexter is feeling down in the dumps because of how ugly he looks in his school pictures so decides to use science to fix that problem when picture day is around the corner.

!! Now That's A Stretch synopsis:

Dexter combines himself with bubblegum to solve problems regarding his short stature

!! Dexter Detention synopsis:
Dexter accidentally helps a student cheat causing him to go to detention.



! Dexter Detention provides examples of:

* FelonyMisdemeanor: Dexter is sent to detention after unwillingly helping a student cheat. The detention warden seems to think getting under his wing is unforgivable, calling the kids there "criminals" and forcing them to [[WritingLines write lines]] and worse punishments. Then in the end, apparently escaping detention is enough to send Dexter to the state prison.
* {{Jerkass}}:
** The student who bugs Dexter for the answer so he can cheat at the test
** The Detention Warden. He refuses to listen to Dexter's protests of innocence and treats the students as low-life criminals.
* WardensAreEvil: The Detention Warden treats his room [[SeriousBusiness like it was an actual prison]], calling all students that are there "criminals" (the camera even zooms in on his mouth [[RunningGag every time he says the word]] to make emphasis on this), trying to torture them psychologically so they accept their alleged guilt, and putting them into a "PunishmentBox" that is just a little hole in the ground barely bigger than a shoebox (and if you don't fit, too bad--he'll ''make'' you fit) where he will keep them until they go mad or he decides to let them out, whichever comes first.
