A jilted ex-lover of Jake's, his old high school principal, let's it be known that Jake never passed grade 11. In order to limit the damage to his rep, Jake goes back to high school to retake Home Ec, Calculus, and French. To make matters worse, Jake is attending the same school and classes as Tinny, who is a much better student.
Jake is shocked to discover that the other students find him really old, even though he puts on and takes off his sunglasses frequently. Jake becomes very unpopular when he begins investigating a student drug ring, and Tinny may be involved. Jake's reputation takes a further dive when he blows up the Home Ec lab.
The episode is supposed to end with Des finding out he has a new and scary STD, making for some very powerful Canadian television. Instead, the Home Ec explosion maxes out the budget, and the explosion plays at random times throughout the episode, and for six minutes at the end to fill out the time.

You have again demonstrated what an artist you really are.
Oh no! This was going to be the premise for my episode Sweet Valley Doyle!
Exactly? That would be almost scary. I'm sure there is room for a Sweet Valley Doyle premise with the most popular kid in school. Or, alternatively a Babysitter's Club Doyle. "Jake Doyle, he's the dreamiest," and all that. Episode stars 4 girls, all named Jennifer.
