Annie brings a cup of coffee into RevCam's home office, where he is looking at old pictures of himself like the narcissistic jerk he is. There's one picture in particular of a young Stephen Collins where he looks just like Matt, complete with long greasy hair and a dopey facial expression. RevCam tells Annie he can't believe he hasn't seen his bandmates in twenty years, then wonders what his life would have been like if he had stayed with them, playing concert halls filled with fans. Annie says that he has lots of fans at the church; they just don't throw their underwear at the pulpit when he finishes a sermon. Really? I thought I saw Mrs. Bink do that once. While looking at what seems to be an old yearbook picture of the band, RevCam reveals that the name of his band was "The Flower and Vegetable Show." Annie chooses to make fun of the orange lamé tuxedos the group is wearing in the picture instead of their lamé name. RevCam's a little embarrassed about the bad wardrobe, but I don't see how his current outfit, a prune-colored shirt with a tie of the same shade, is an improvement. RevCam tells Annie that he's going to tell his ex-band to stay in an RV park instead of their driveway, and Annie is very grateful, because, as she says, in her "current" condition, she just can't deal with guests. She means her pregnant condition, not her crazy one. RevCam and Annie kiss chastely, then RevCam kisses her pregnant belly and pats it, which is more attention than those poor twins will get after they're born.
In a scene that is neither interesting nor entertaining, Simon sneaks into the teachers' lounge and steals some coffee, dumping the previous contents of his giant thermos, milk, all over the floor. A teacher snoozes on a nearby couch the whole time. Public education, ladies and gentlemen!
In the library, Matt tells some doofy guy that he's really tired and still has a lot more studying to do. Doofy says he has something that can help and offers Matt some pills, and if this episode turns out like that Saved By the Bell where Jessie Spano got hooked on caffeine pills, I will be so excited. So excited. And so, so scared. Anyway, Matt Nancy Reagans Doofy's offer until Doofy explains that the pills aren't drugs -- "they're herbs and stuff. One hundred percent natural and legal." Then he pulls a giant bottle of them out of nowhere and gives it to Matt. Wow, that's generous. Danger music plays as Doofy says that the pills are as natural as water, just so we can be absolutely sure that they're really not.
