Angela Anaconda

Season 2 Episode 22 - Sound Of Silence / Johnny Learns To Swing

Sound Of Silence Coach Rhinehart has lost his voice and football practice has been cancelled. Mark and Derek are left with nothing to do but torture poor Angela. To make matters worse, if Mark and Derek's football team lose their next game, they won't make it to the playoffs. This means even more time on their hands - even more time to torture their sister. Angela must find a way for Coach to get healthy again. While failing at playing doctor, Angela discovers that Gordy has the ability to understand Coach's silent gestures. Gordy can interpret for Coach on the football field. Football practice is on again. But Gordy's interpretations of Coach's unique sign language are quite flowery. In fact, the football players have a hard time understanding exactly what Gordy is trying to say. When Gordy tries to get aggressive, he loses his voice too! Once again Angela is forced to take matters into her own hands. Now when Coach makes a gesture, Gordy interprets it with his own. Angela in turn interprets Gordy. And somehow, as improbable as it seems, the team wins with one spectacular maneuver. Angela is a hero. Johnny Learns To Swing Angela innocently discovers something strange on Johnny's chest. None of the kids knows what it is but Uncle Nicky recognizes it. Johnny has genuine Abatti chest hair. This, of course, means Johnny is a man and Uncle Nicky must now teach his young charge the ways in which a real man behaves. The next day when Angela and friends pick Johnny up to go to school, Johnny is no where to be found. Their friend has morphed into John-O - a miniature Uncle Nicky, complete with leisure suit and lady-killer attitude. Angela has a few reservations. Johnny is trying to act older and his coolness is getting in the way of having fun. But Nanette seems repulsed by John-O's new charms and, if he can upset Nanette, he can still be Angela's friend! All too soon though the charm turns to smarm and Nanette falls for the insincerity John-O is oozing. Thankfully, Johnny is unable to give up his spitball addiction, something Uncle Nicky says is a manly no-no. Maybe Johnny can be rescued from John-O after all.
