Jason: Phew. False alarm. Eileen Jacobson: Jason, will you cool it with the disguises?! Jason: Eileen, you don't understand the fifth-grade male ethos. If the guys find out that I like you--a girl--I'm kaput! Finished! Ruined! They'll make fun of me! Tease me! Taunt me till I die! Eileen Jacobson: How do you know? Jason: Well, I'd do it to them. Eileen Jacobson: You did say fifth grade, and not, oh, first or second, correct?
