** In Todd's story, after he has his name written on the board and a check-mark put next to it (getting it circled after this means he'll get sent home early), two robbers enter the classroom, [[EpicFail thinking it's a bank]]. When the men realize their mistake and complain that they climbed up 30 flights of stairs for nothing, Todd says they ''do'' have something valuable: knowledge. He then picks up Joy's nearly-full workbook and gives it to the robbers, prompting them to have a HeelFaceTurn and leave (bonus points because [[JerkAss Joy]] [[CantGetAwayWithNuthin was responsible for getting Todd into trouble in the first place]]). [[StatusQuoIsGod Of course]], he still gets sent home early, but when he leaves, everybody stands and applauds him.
** In Sharie's story, she falls out of the classroom window while sleeping. Louis is all the way on the other side of the playground when he sees her falling - and he runs the entire length of the field, passing through the various playground instruments in a sort of obstacle course, and catches her right before she hits the ground. Appropriately enough, the other students cheer.
** Louis gets another one in Terrence's story. Terrence has been behaving like a major JerkAss, kicking all the balls over the fence and then insulting the other kids. So what does Louis do when they complain to him? [[spoiler:He kicks ''Terrence'' over the fence]].
