Complete story — includes the ending

Cory struggles with his emotions when Riley wants to attend her first school dance instead of continuing the tradition of the two of them riding the Coney Island Cyclone roller coaster, which they have done every year since Riley was young. Making matters worse, Cory agonizes over Maya's quitting school after he gives her an F on a quiz. When both girls tell him there is nothing more he can teach them, Cory feels he has lost them, though Topanga assures him that his intentions are good, and he will never give up on those he cares about. He asks Maya to sit down and talk, and shows her that she actually knew all of the answers on the quiz. Cory advises Maya to have confidence in herself, and that she does not need to act as if she does not care. Cory then chaperones the school dance and for the last dance, he chooses to do a father-daughter dance with both Riley and Maya. Guest stars: Corey Fogelmanis as Farkle, Sari Arambulo as Allison
