"Father
of the Bribe"
Episode KH606
Original Airdate: 1/1/02
While Connie is practicing the violin for recital, Bobby convinces
her to play hooky and sneak out to play video games. When Connie flubs
her routine at the recital, her humiliated father tells Bobby that
he's holding Connie back. Bobby refuses to leave her alone, but then
Kahn bribes him to stay away. Bobby tells Connie about the bribe but
she tells Bobby to keep the money and they'll pretend to be broken
up.
While in health class, Bobby and Connie trade notes expressing how
they are so bored that they could "kill" themselves. The
teacher finds one note and shows it to the principal, who suspects
that the teenagers are suicidal. Kahn, riddled with guilt tells Bobby
that he should spend more time with Connie. Connie has tired of Bobby
though and ultimately breaks up, realizing that they can still be
friends.
