Plot

It's Friday and it's time to announce the winner of the Good Behavior Award. 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 than puts Tommy in a time-out first, then when it's time for Timmy's time-out, he 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 complement, 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 aproaches D.W. and Emily and asks them to teach him 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 spray's 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 grabs D.W., then lets go of her and apoligize. All of the students are suprised by this, and D.W. decides to give Tommy another chance. After lots of teaching ,Tommy learns to behave like a good child. On Parent-Visiting day if Tommy could get one parent to say, "What a well behaved boy!", he would suceed ,and offically be a good person. During the day Tommy does good things such as giving Ms.Morgan a watermellon, picking up the splatered watermellon after Timmy pushed it off the desk on purpous, pouring punch for people, complementing peoples' clothing, taking responsiblity for smearing paint on the blackboard, (Even though Timmy did it.), and resisting to fight Timmy when he tried to fight Tommy. Then Mrs. Terracini (,Sarah's grandmother,) said, ",What a well behaved boy!," and pulled on Tommy's cheeck. On the day of the Good Behavior Award, Tommy won and got a vanilla cupcake. This angered Tommy as hated vanilla cupcakes and wanted a chocolate one. He took the cupcake, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it angerily. 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 could 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".
