A Plot
Alli and Drew are spending time with each other, and she really wants to be his girlfriend but Drew is reluctant to put a label on their companionship. Alli is happy with hanging with Drew, but she wants the relationship to have meaning. Jenna and KC give her the idea to double date, and Alli presents this idea to Drew. Drew balks out due to his failing grades, and Alli sorta teases him for it to which she gets snapped at. Mr. Perrino then assigns the class an essay, something Drew is dreading. Alli tries to help him out with his essay, but Drew again rejects her advances, citing he needs a good grade on his essay to please his mother. Alli is at the breaking point, and she decides to write the complete essay for him in order for him to attend the dance and get his mom off his back. She hands it in for him, and tells Drew but Drew is now freaked. As Perrino looks at the essay, he's impressed. However, Drew can't really back up the essay's facts. As Perrino chews Drew out, Alli comes forward and tells him she was the one who wrote the essay. Mr. Perrino sends her to the office, and docks Drew down a letter grade, hedging his bets.

Afterwards, Alli meets up with Drew and happy she saves him from big trouble. Drew is mad at her for doing his work and making him look stupid.

And he tells her "for a genius, you aren't very smart."
