Summary

Francine and the others are having fun teasing George about his nose bleeding, but suddenly Francine vomits in front of the whole school, much to her embarrassment. Her friends try to make her feel better, but she thinks they are making fun of her, so she ignores them. Later in the episode she discusses her embarrassment with George, and George tells her that her friends are not making fun of her, and then they show up and start teasing George, and she defends him, leading to them being nice to George after that.

Plot

The episode starts off with Arthur, Buster, Francine, and Sue Ellen during lunch time talking about disgusting things. Francine brings up George, who just then walks by with a bloody nose, asking for a tissue. Francine starts making fun of him and everyone laughs, too. Suddenly, Francine starts to make a strange face and then she throws up. She is shocked that something like this would happen to her and she thinks her friends will think she's disgusting like George. Catherine tells her that there is a barf kid in every class and that she wouldn't be surprised if they gave her a nickname.

That night, Francine has a dream. She dreams that Muffy and the rest of her class voted her as the most disgusting person of the year. They had given her a nickname, "Barfine". Then, she dreams that Mr. Ratburn puts her in a contamination room with George. She wakes up, only to find that it's time for school. At school, Muffy, Buster and Arthur come to ask her how she is, but she thinks they're settnig her up to laugh at her. In class, Francine sees everyone whispering and assumes that it's about her. Buster comes over to her desk and drops a brown paper bag on it. Francine, thinking it's a barf bag, throws it back at him.

While at lunch, the girls are sitting with Francine and George comes and sits with them with a bloody nose. The girls scoot towards Francine. Francine pretends to start puking and they scoot towards George. This "proves her theory" that they think she's disgusting. She goes home and Catherine asks how her day was and if anyone called her "Barfine".

Francine goes over to George's house and asks him if he wants to get a milkshake with her. George goes reluctantly because he's afraid of being made fun of. She asks him how he can take being laughed at, and he says they don't laugh at her because she's popular. Francine doesn't think this is fair, just as the rest of her friends walk through the door. Francine feels like puking and she accidentally hits George on the way to the bathroom, giving him a bloody nose. Muffy, Prunella, and others start laughing at him.

Francine comes out of the bathroom and tells them that they shouldn't make fun of George because they're now both disgusting. They start handing him tissues and treating him with more respect. Francine doesn't feel like she has to puke anymore and learns that she shouldn't make fun of people.

Trivia

• 40301 - Buster's Breathless already taught us not to treat someone like a freak when they're suffering from a medical condition -- and Francine must have decided making fun of people was okay again, even though she learned not to in Draw! and Citizen Frensky.
• When Francine throws up, the barf is not seen. But in D.W., the Picky Eater it is.
• You'd think a teacher would have noticed everyone making fun of George and stepped in. Or not.
• This is the only episode that Wally does not appear with George.
• The surgical masks are worn by the kids again (after My Dad, the Garbage Man) in Francine's dream sequence.
• Mr. Morris was seen as a cameo in the cafeteria.
• Food poisoning would be a disgusting guess for Francine, since the consequences of food poisoning would cause the person to vomit and defecate simultaneously; yet Miss Flynn states that Francine would barely be able to move if she had food poisoning.Probaly cause Francine didn't eat anything yet.
• This was the forth episode to be rated TV-Y7 for George's nose bleeding scene.

Goofs

• In the first shot of the kids looking through the nurse window, Brain's inside shirt was brown. Then in the next shot the inside shirt was back to normal.
