The Nanette Lock / Gordy Floats

The Nanette Lock / Gordy Floats S26E26 - The Nanette Lock / Gordy Floats 1999

The Nanette Lock While playing on the swing set in the schoolyard, Angela invents a cool new way to swing! She locks arms and legs with Gina and they swing together in rhythm. Nanette walks through the playground just as they are demonstrating this new swinging innovation, and decides to take credit for the technique by naming it the "Nanette Lock". Angela is determined to set the record straight by proving to everyone that the invention was hers to begin with, but her only witnesses are discredited by none other than nannoying Nanette Manior. Quick to praise her stellar 'inventor' student, Mrs. Brinks rushes to the playground to attempt the "Nanette Lock" herself, but the weight of her- ample figure causes the swing to detach from the swing set and sends Mrs. Brinks plummeting to the ground! Seeing the fire in Brinks' eyes, Nanette blurts out the truth about the swinging invention. Angela is so happy to finally receive the credit she deserves, she doesn't even mind clapping erasers! Gordy Floats It is spring, and Gordy can't wait to win first prize in the 'Spring into Spring' float making competition like he has every year. But this year, Nanette is entering with a float made from a real live fire truck and it's filled with French roses imported from France. Angela, Gina and Johnny agree to band together to defeat Nanette in her ploy to be the first to overtake the reining 'Spring into Spring' champion. Although their intentions were good, Gordy's float turns out to be a gondola full of garbage and old tube socks, and Angela feels she is the one to blame. Just as the judges are about to award Nanette first prize, Gordy shows up with a red wagon carrying a solitary red rose bud in a vase. The judges erupt with compliments and decide that the simplicity and sheer beauty of Gordy's float is worthy of first prize!
