Abbott Elementary Recap: Clean Freak
I didn’t think the first obstacle in Janine and Gregory’s relationship would be … ringworm?
No, we’re talking about fungi, which Gregory manically describes to his student’s fearful faces as “tiny little creatures crawling all over your body, thriving in moist areas.” And, as Ava and Janine point out, something as highly contagious as ringworm is nearly impossible to contain among younger children. But once the others hear about the outbreak, they spring to action in the most on-brand ways: Gregory swiftly packs his things and flees, Mr. Johnson questions who is responsible for cleaning the school, Barbara praises God for giving her immunity because she already had ringworm years ago (which is not at all scientifically possible), while Janine and Ava come up with a plan. Gregory douses his classroom with all types of disinfectant, but things worsen when Brandon returns to school with a note from his mom proclaiming she isn’t the one (or the two), so she will be seeing her child at three o’clock since district policy states he doesn’t have to be sent home until the end of the day.
