Stinky!

Ugh.

you're late for class?

- Oh, yes.
Thanks, Miss Kaso.

- Don't thank me.

I wanna know
why you're late.

- Oh, well, Kenan wanted me
to stop by his locker and, uh,

you know, well...
here's your Nintendo.

- Nintendo?
- It's a video game.

And video games
are against school rules.

- [nasally]
Oh, I get it.

Video games are
against school rules.

Nah, nah, nah, nah.

- Miss Kaso, he's not supposed
to have that in class.

- And you're not
supposed to have

that big old pimple
on your forehead,

but look at you.

- Kenan.

- No habla inglés.

broke the rules,

you can plan on
singing a Spanish song

sing in Spanish

sounds like
a fun day to me.

you with inventory. Yeah.

That's cool. Cool.

we've gotta
sing a song

in front of the entire
Spanish class,

and then to finish off
the rest of my sad Friday,

I've gotta help Chris count
every item in the store.

Oh, my heart.

A boy shouldn't have
this much stuff in his life.

- KYRA:
[coughing]

- Ooh, what's
wrong with you?

- I don't know.
I feel kinda of funny.

- Hi, boys. Hey, Kyra.

You sound awful.

Child, you are burning up.

You get right up
into your bed.

No school for you
for the rest of the week.

- Kenan!

Why must you have that
mischievous look on your face?

- Hey, Kel.
- No.

- You and I are feeling
kinda sick, too.

You know that that means?
- K-Kenan.

- You and I are
taking Friday off.

The whole day!

We gon' ditch school
and ditch work.

- Oh...

- Don't say, "Oh..."

It'll be fun.

- The last time you said
we were gonna have fun,

I ended up butt naked
in the zoo.

- That was the first time
I ever heard a giraffe giggle.

[laughing]

- But--but, Kenan--

- Look, we're ditchin'
on Friday

and that's all
there is to it.

- Oh.

[laughing]
You ready for school?

- It's Friday. We're not
going to school, remember?

- Ohhhh...I was hoping
you'd forgot.

You're gonna get us
in trouble yet again.

- We are not gonna
get in trouble.

I've got it all
figured out.

- I can't read it.

- See? First, I wrote
a note to school.

"Please excuse Kenan
from school today.

"He has a bad earache.

"And please do not
call him at home

"because the phone ringing

"will cause his ear
to ache further.

Hugs and kisses,
Roger Rockmore."

There.

- All right,
but what about me?

- Oh, no problem.

Um..."P.S., Kel has
an infected...tongue."

- What? Nah, you
can't write that.

- Shhh! Why not?

- Oh, I don't want
Miss Kaso to think

my tongue's all fungus-y.

- Oh, please.
- AUDIENCE: [laughing]

- [pounding on door]

- Ah, here he is now.
- Who? Who? Who? Who?

- I'm from Turtle
Messenger Service.

Someone here called
for a messenger.

- Shhhhh!

Yeah. Take this note to Room
at Capone High School.

- Hey, I went to
Capone, too.

Are you guys
ditchin' school?

- AUDIENCE:
[laughing]

- Yeah, how'd you know?

- Oh, I used to ditch
all the time, man.

And now I'm a messenger.

Hey, Chris.

Yeah, it's Kenan, right.

I'm sick. Yeah,
I'm real sick.

[coughs]

Yeah, I can't make
it into work today.

I'm not even
going to school.

Yeah, I'm sorry
I couldn't help you

count every item
in the store.

Oh! I've gotta go.
I'm sick.

don't speak Spanish.

That is, after Kenan
and Kel sing for us.

Uh, where are
Kenan and Kel?

- They're tardy.

Or, as they say
in Mexico...

Ellos están tarde.

- Are you Miss Kaso?

- Yes.

- Here you go.

It's from Kenan and Kel.

They're "sick."

As soon as we get
some cash,

we'll head straight down

about this, man.

We're gonna get caught.
I know we're gonna get caught.
