* ExactWords: Frank's elementary school teacher, in response to his apparent inability to identify the female reproductive system, orders him to create an elaborate oral presentation "with visual elements" and deliver it to his class, under threat of receiving a failing grade. Frank's solution to this problem is to bring V into the class and use a marker to draw the parts of the reproductive system on her (as she's wearing a one-piece swimsuit), which apparently satisfies his teacher's demands, as Frank doesn't receive any punishment whatsoever for locking her out of the classroom while this occurs.
