Gabe gives his class a college prep pep talk that backfires so spectacularly he begins to question his own career path.

Gabe's students encounter a comedy of errors after he encourages them to sign up for Carlos's drama class. Paula urges the staff to try a new bar.

Gabe meddles in Paula's love life when she scores a date with a coach who's a well-known player, while Marisol balks at starring in the school play.

Citing cultural appropriation, Marisol goes after Gabe's favorite taco truck. Paula attempts to censor the school's production of "Romeo and Juliet".

As Gabe's friends nudge him back into the dating pool, he pushes Paula to hire a new guidance counselor. Mikey worries about kissing Marisol onstage.
