When Greg meets his completely hot math teacher, he risks a lifetime of being ... "'''The Undergraduate'''."

In the early going, Mike and Carol get a call from Greg's math teacher, Miss O'Hara, that his grades have seriously been falling as of late. They wonder if his skills are up to snuff and if he's capable of doing the work. Meanwhile, the folks keep finding notes Greg keeps writing to some mysterious girl named Linda.tea
After some detective work, viewers realize just who Linda is ... someone ''way'' too old for 14-year-old Greg, who is in eighth grade. It seems that this Linda is Miss O'Hara, a 20-something math teacher who happens to be engaged. Greg finally wakes up when he sees who his teacher's finace is: Wes Parker, the standout first baseman for Greg's favorite baseball team, the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Wes promises that if Greg improves his grades, he'll give him tickets to an upcoming game and allow him a media pass to meet the team after the game. Greg considers it a deal, and sure enough, it isn't long before Greg is once again that capable, straight-A student, well on his way to becoming "The Graduate" ... with honors.
