5. Killer Bees

Complete story — includes the ending

In the geography test, Minkus scores the highest score once again. Cory did not do too well (he got a C), and he actually studies, but he blames the out-of-date textbooks. Mr. Feeny agrees with Cory but tells him that the Board of Education doesn't have enough money. Mr. Feeny also tells him that if he paid attention in class, he might have done a bit better. Mr. Feeny informs the class about the upcoming Regional Geography Tournament. Minkus always enters and wins. The whole class is not paying attention until Mr. Feeny announces that the winner will get to be the batboy at the upcoming World Series. Everyone, but Minkus, loves the prize. Cory tries to convince Mr. Feeny into letting him compete, but he knows Cory's motives. Later, Cory and his friends ambush and take Minkus to the Matthews house. Meanwhile, Eric is continuously arguing with Amy about a concert he is going to. Eric is bringing a date to the Aerosmith concert and is embarrassed to be near Alan and Amy. On the other hand, Cory tries to convince Minkus to withdraw from the Geography tournament. Minkus agrees to Cory's bargain under one condition - they will not throw balls at him during gym class. Because of Minkus' resignation, Mr. Feeny has no one else but Cory. Mr. Feeny doesn't want to enter thinking Cory will humiliate him. Cory hits the books and is confident for the tournament. Unfortunately, he and Mr. Feeny lost the tournament, and gets even more angry learning that the girl who won isn't even interested in the prize. Meanwhile, Eric and Heather come home early from the concert due to Eric being embarrassed. Heather, though, thinks that Amy and Alan are cool. Eric starts appreciating his parents for who they are after getting a talk. For Cory, even though he didn't win the geography tournament, he got an A on his geography test.
