Chalkboard Bungle

In order to keep the Warner kids under control, Mr. Plotz hires a new strict schoolteacher named Miss Flamiel, who has been able to control any child. Despite this, she finds it difficult to control the Warners, whom cannot help but torment.

Crew

• Written by Paul Rugg

Trivia

• Two of the rules are hypocritical because two of the rules are "No shoes" and "No shirts", and Wakko is still wearing his shirt and Miss Flamiel is still wearing her shoes it could however simply be parodying the typical public restaurant code ("no shoes, no shirt, no service").
• The full classroom rules list established by Miss Flamiel includes:
  • No talking, no popcorn, no guitar playing, no laughing, no lawnmowing, no squirming, no pickles, no gum chewing, no cooking, no drawing, no guts, no singing, no skydiving, no moving, no yawning, no ducks, no smiling, no swimming, no shirt, no shoes, no blah, blah, blah, blah, no rock and roll, no playing, no vermicelli, no juice, no TV watching, no visitors, no dogs allowed, no camping, no use, no salamanders, no running, no walking, no yelling, no raucousness, no hopping, no stopping, no parking, no fishing, no snorkels, no smoking, no rainchecks, no square dancing, no service and no no no no anything!
    • Of these, 22 were broken in the episode, and 14 were broken by Miss Flamiel herself.
• After the "pop" quiz, the Warners do a parody of an early '90s Pepsi commercial which featured Ray Charles.

Goofs

• Wakko’s lips appear blue when he’s about to lividly explode.
