Episode Summary[]
Casey is finally fitting in - that is, until she makes the mistake of asking for higher grades, and Emily informs her that everyone has been calling her a "grade grubber" as a result. At Casey's old school, studying hard for good grades was socially acceptable, but at her new one, it makes her the subject of teasing from her peers. At first, Casey tries to just stop studying, but it's no use. She keeps getting 'A's,' which is not helping her get rid of her grade-grubbing image. Meanwhile, Derek is going to fail English if he doesn't get an A on his report. He decides to pair up with Casey, who refuses to do any work on the project.
