Donley & Graham wrote this story where 11-year-old Jonathan has a chance to skip to 7th grade and junior high.  (And, yes, he was 7 and in 2nd grade three years earlier.)  He doesn't adjust well, first boasting of his wealth and "giftedness," and then befriending a hoodlum.  Angela and Tony have to go see the principal, Mr. Crebbin (Gerald Hiken, who was Brody on Three's Company), who finds Tony's presence and relationship with Angela confusing.  Tony and Angela each say that if they were to have another child, they'd want it to be with each other.  And at home later, he snaps her bra!  Yes, this episode is marked down from a B for PC reasons, since the idea of such acts as just "boys being boys" is not one I agree with.  Note that Tony claims that Angela has never mooned anyone, which we'll find out later is not true.
