Arnold has to face his on-again off-again crush on Lila once and for all when he starts getting attention from an unexpected source: Gerald’s little sister! “Timberly Loves Arnold” is a bit all over the place (didn’t we close the book on #LilArnold? Why’s Gerald so absent? Why’s Sid gotta be so creepy?), but it does get the Kidz a bit nostalgic for the social awkwardness of childhood crushes and sibling tag-alongs. Timberly’s good people. “Eugene, Eugene!” dramatizes the relationships among the kids of P.S. 118 when theater director (and Mr. Simmons’s archrival) Mr. Leichliter brings a production of the titular stage play to the school. Spurned by a former love, Leichliter changes the ending of the play so the bad guy (Arnold) gets the girl (Lila) – and long-suffering Eugene won’t stand for it. In our discussion, we talk about the framing of narratives as school play, how inconsequential Helga is, and how cool Tim Curry is.
