==Summary==
D.W. needs to teach Tommy manners in order to uphold her bet with Emily by the Parent-Visiting day. However, this is a big challenge for D.W. In the end will Tommy have good manners, or will he just go along with Timmy? 

==Plot==
It's Friday and it's time to announce the winner of the Good Behavior Award. [[D.W. Read|D.W.]] wins the award and gets a chocolate cupcake, but before she can eat it, the [[Tibble Twins]] launch a rocket that ricochets off the walls of the classroom, shreds through D.W.'s picture on the wall, and crashes into her cupcake.

Miss Morgan then puts Tommy in a time-out first. When it's time for Timmy's time-out, Timmy switches scarfs with Tommy to confuse [[Ms. Morgan]]. Later that night Timmy tells Tommy he's better at taking time-outs. At first, Tommy takes it as a compliment, but a few seconds later, he gets in a fight with Timmy, and their grandmother comes in to find the two rumbling.

The next day at school, Tommy approaches D.W. and [[Emily]] and asks them to teach him to be good. At first the two girls take it as a joke and laugh, but then think about what it would be like if the Tibbles were good. With that thought, Emily and D.W. make a bet that if D.W. can make Tommy good, Emily will do all of D.W.'s snack time clean ups for a month.

D.W. gives Tommy a task, if he does it right he gets Gummy Slugs. One morning when Timmy wakes and doesn't find Tommy in bed, he heads downstairs and sprays the kitchen with a water gun, but ends up spraying his grandmother. After cleaning up the mess, Timmy heads over to D.W.'s house to find Tommy getting a Gummy Slug, then starts chasing him through the house.

Eventually, D.W. gives up on teaching Tommy to be good, but then Tommy grabs D.W., then quickly lets go of her and apologizes. All of the students are surprised by this, and D.W. chooses to give Tommy another chance. After lots of teaching, Tommy learns to behave like a good child.

On Parent-Visiting day, D.W. thinks that if Tommy can get one parent to say, "What a well-behaved boy!" he will succeed, and officially be a good person. During the day, Tommy does good things such as giving Ms. Morgan a watermelon (which is much bigger than an apple), picking up the splattered watermelon after Timmy pushes it off the desk on purpose, pouring punch for people, complementing people's clothing, taking responsibility for smearing paint on the blackboard (even though Timmy did it), and resisting to fight Timmy when he tries to pick a fight. Then [[Mrs. Terracini]] (Sara's grandmother) says, "What a well behaved boy!" and pulls on Tommy's cheek.

On the day of the Good Behavior Awards, Tommy wins a vanilla cupcake. This angers Tommy, as he dislikes vanilla cupcakes, and wants a chocolate one instead. He takes the cupcake, throws it on the ground, and stomps on it angrily. Following this, Timmy cheerfully shouts "He's back!" Outside D.W. and Emily are building a sand castle. Tommy asks the girls if he and Timmy can destroy it. He then lets Timmy destroy it first. The episode ends with the twins running off laughing, and D.W. and Emily saying "Tibbles" in unison.
