Full Episode S03E04 Recap

### Opening Scene: Misplaced Expectations at the Rental Store - The scene opens with a humorous misunderstanding about renting "Rocky II," leading to disappointment when Cher is not in the movie, setting a comedic tone. ### Faculty Meeting: Holiday Display Announcement - Principal Quinn announces a $400 budget for a Smoot outdoor Christmas lights display, sparking a discussion on inclusivity and the potential to win a holiday lights contest. ### The Marcus Dilemma: A Heart Transplant Needed - The faculty learns about Marcus, a sophomore with a serious heart condition, and debates reallocating the holiday display budget to help fund his heart transplant. ### Decision to Help Marcus: A Bake Sale Plan - The faculty decides to use the $400 to support Marcus through a bake sale, aiming for a "holiday miracle" (or "coincidence") to raise funds. ### The Bake Sale: Success and a New Goal - The bake sale is a success, raising $1,748, which leads to the idea of a charity auction to further support Marcus's heart transplant fund. ### Charity Auction: High Hopes and High Spirits - The auction features unique items and experiences from the faculty, but mishaps and misunderstandings abound, highlighting the quirky and dysfunctional nature of the Smoot faculty. ### A Night of Surprises: From Joy to Chaos - The auction raises over $15,000, initially seeming like a victory for Marcus. However, misunderstandings about the budget reveal they are over $10,000 in debt, leading to a desperate final bet on a holiday lights contest. ### Climactic Conclusion: A Smoot Holiday Coincidence - The holiday lights display impresses meteorologist Burt Crandall, but the celebration turns chaotic with a live birth, a car theft by Marcus, and an unforeseen accident leading to both tragic and miraculous outcomes. ### Epilogue: Mixed Fortunes and Legal Troubles - The story wraps up with Marcus getting his heart transplant but facing jail time, the faculty facing lawsuits, and the community reeling from the loss of the lunch lady, culminating in a bittersweet "Smoot Holiday Coincidence."
