Willie is failing science and may be left back in school; David tries to score concert tickets to see Tina Turner.
David's fascination with Tina Turner takes up a big chunk of the episode. We hear a soundalike version of "We Don't Need Another Hero". The script makes fun of the fact that teenage fans of Turner's Eighties comeback have no clue about her past with Ike. The price of the concert tickets is $40.
There is a clever edit when Valerie is on the phone with the teacher "I know my son" that cuts to her asking Willie "Who are you?" in regard to his failing science class. Willie does a funny imitation of Mark and Danny Ponce does well playing the "upset" bit.
