Complete story — includes the ending

Cory and Shawn's class watch a video about puberty, which disgusts them. Shortly after, Shawn's eyes are caught by a beautiful classmate named Hilary. Shawn asks out Hilary despite his agreement with Cory that they'll stay twelve until they are forty-two. In an attempt to keep up with his buddy, Cory asks Topanga out on a date, not knowing what dating really means. Cory asks Minkus for advice on dating and he gives Cory the answer to date the "girl in the dress", meaning Topanga. Meanwhile, Amy and Alan are excited knowing that Cory is out on his first date with Topanga. Cory becomes nervous and decides to fake being sick so that his date with Topanga will not pursue. The next day, Topanga went to the Matthews house to bring Cory some bancha tea. To Cory's surprise, Topanga is understanding about why he faked being ill. Cory and Topanga play a game with their laundry, and they chat about their Mother's Day gifts. In school, Cory explains to Topanga that them hanging out was not a date. Cory asks Topanga how she knows a lot about women, to her reply she says that she will become a "woman" one day. Before heading into class, she fixes Cory's collar but he annoyingly fixes it back. In the post-credits, Cory and Shawn discuss about their first dates and always promise to stick together despite the coming of second dates, proms, engagements, and marriage. Later, Hilary says hi to Shawn and the same goes for Topanga to Cory. Guest stars: Danielle Fishel as Topanga, Breanne O'Donnell as Hilary, Gisele MacKenzie as Narrator Voice, Gil Stratton, Jr. as TV Announcer
