Mr. Feeny (William Daniels) flunks Cory (Ben Savage) when the boy falls asleep during a test. This time, however, it was all dad Alan's fault; Alan (William Russ) had let Cory stay up to watch a baseball game to make up for cancelling a promised night out. Unfortunately, Mr. Feeny refuses to let Cory take a makeup exam even when Alan explains the situation, leading to a tense (and pivotal) confrontation between teacher and parent. Incidentally, this episode was based on an actual incident in the childhood of Boy Meets World producer Michael Jacobs.
