Mr. Burley is passing out pop quizzes to the students.  Jake is not happy about it.  Jake:  "Dude, I hate pop quizzes."  Noah:  "Stop complaining.  Besides you know this stuff."  Mr. Burley finished passing out the quizzes and walks to his desk.  He faces the class behind his desk.  Mr. Burley:  "No talking during the test.  Come up to see me if you have any questions."  Mr. Burley sits down and starts working on his Rubik's cube.  The class begins working on their quiz.  Troy tries to concentrate on his quiz, but he is distracted by a memory.

Earlier Troy had been out on a run.  He paused when he heard a strange sound.  Cautiously, Troy enters the woods and soon spots a strange creature.  Troy:  "Who are you?  What'd you want?"  Creepox:  "My name is Creepox.  Remember it."  Troy:  "Alright Creepox, you still haven't told me what you're doing here."  Creepox:  "I've come to see what sort of creature dares challenge my insectoids.  So very soft.  With a single stroke, you'll be trashed."  Troy:  "Humans are a lot tougher than we look, but I won't fight you just to prove it."  Creepox:  "Oh you'll fight me.  Count on it."  Creepox walked away.

Troy returns to the present and works on his quiz.  Mr. Burley has fallen asleep and is snoring softly in his chair.  Gia finishes her quiz and places it in the basket before heading out of the classroom.  Jake watches her and grins and shakes his head.  The bell rings.  The students start to gather their stuff.  The noise abruptly wakes up Mr. Burley and he falls backwards in his chair.  Noah sees Mr. Burley fall.  Noah:  "Mr. Burley!"  Noah hurries over to Mr. Burley.  Noah:  "Are you alright?"  Mr. Burley tries to compose himself as he scrambles to stand back up.  Mr. Burley:  "No, I'm....I'm just fine."  He picks up the Rubik's cube off the floor and straightens up to address the class.  Mr. Burley:  "Have a scienficeric weekend everyone!"  Mr. Burley sees the class is empty except for Noah.  He hurries out of the class, working on the Rubik's cube.  Gia is at her locker and looking at her Gosei Morpher.  Jake startles her.  Jake:  "Hey Gia!"  Gia sighs in relief when she sees it is Jake.  Gia:  "Oh, it's only you."  Jake:  "I guess I've had worse reactions."  Gia explains.  Gia:  "I don't want some random kid to see my morpher."  Jake asks Gia if he can walk her home?  Gia responds, why?  You're afraid to walk by yourself.  Gia walks away as Jake states no.  Jake hurries up to catch up with Gia and they walk together.  Jake explains that he just wanted to talk to her.  You know, about this weekend.
