What happens
Miss Brooks, an English teacher at Madison High, has secretly written an article for True Family Romance under the name Dorothy Kimberly, claiming to be the mother of a quiz kid. The magazine's editor, Mr. Nemo, arrives at her house to verify the story before paying her fifty dollars, while Mr. Conklin, the principal, is due shortly after on school business.
