After a scuffle leaves Gideon injured, his mother angrily accuses him while Ms. Perkins and Mr. Doyle argue over who started it. Henry is ordered to apologize or lose dinner privileges; Gideon insists he fell on his own but then admits he took his brother’s spot on the team and says he deserved the punches. Ms. Perkins defends her son; the argument escalates in front of neighbors. The episode ends when Gideon, pushed and doubtful, asks aloud, "Was my injury really an accident?" a question that turns the family quarrel into a looming accusation.
