Plot

File:55630.jpg
Lisa and Bart doing push-ups in the mud as a "test".

Lisa confronts Principal Skinner at school, concerned that lessons spent watching videos aren't helping her realize her full potential. Meanwhile, after a destructive and noisy prank involving several megaphones, Homer and Marge decide to take Chief Wiggum's advice and put him in Rommelwood Military School (luring Bart into the car with the lie that they're going to Disneyland). Bart does not want to be there from the get-go, but Lisa sees the education the cadets receive and decides to stay there with him.

Both of them get a hard time from the other cadets: Bart starts to fit in after a while, the others calling him a "natural solider", while Lisa, the first female ever to join the academy, remains an outcast. Bart tries to keep her spirits up, while keeping the fact that he cares about her a secret from the others.

At the end of term, a final challenge awaits all the students; they must pass a physical test called "The Eliminator". In the Commendant's own words, it's a "150 foot hand-over-hand crawl across a 60 gauge Hemp-Jute line with a blister factor of 12. The rope is suspended a full 40 feet over a solid British acre of Old Growth Conneticut Valley Thorn Bushes". Bart helps Lisa to train in secret. The others cheer when she nearly falls off, and Bart starts calling out helpful thing such as, "C'mon, you can do it!" and "I believe in you Lisa!" They both pass, and Lisa receives a medal for "Satisfactory Completion of the Second Grade".
