Complete story — includes the ending

Kevin is now in the eleventh grade, alongside girlfriend Winnie; and Paul, who is now class president. Becoming bored with his routine school life, Kevin becomes a wise guy in school like his new friend, Jeff Billings ( Giovanni Ribisi ). After McKinley's rival school steals McKinley's knight mascot, Kevin tries to make a name for himself when he steals—and eventually frees—the rival's owl mascot. Kevin is also now the delivery guy at Mr. Chong's, having to advertise the business on his car, making Winnie embarrassed to ride with him. Wayne now works in the mailroom at NORCOM, and has moved from sharing Kevin's room to living in the family basement. Meanwhile; Wayne's old buddy, David "Wart" Wirtshafter, returns home from a tour in Vietnam a changed man. But he doesn't feel welcome at the big high school football game when an anonymous shout of "murderer" is directed at him, apparently from a war protester. Kevin and Wayne later find Wart sitting alone in the stadium's parking lot in his underwear, with his clothes folded neatly on the ground. When Wayne goes to see what is wrong, a tearful Wart tells him nothing seems to fit any more; however, he wasn't referring to the size of his clothes. Even so, Wayne offers Wart the shirt off his own back. Guest starring: Giovanni Ribisi as Jeff Billings; Don Perry as Kevin's history teacher Mr. Deeks. Recurring guests: Scott Menville as David "Wart" Wirtshafter; Michael Paul Chan as Mr. Chong.
