Dexter's truancy problem is way out of hand, and the Baltimore County School Board have decided to expel Dexter from the entire public school system. Francine Fishpaw: Why Mr. Kirk - I'm as upset as you to learn of Dexter's truancy - but surely expulsion is not the answer? School Principal: I'm afraid expulsion is the only answer. It is the opinion of the entire staff that Dexter is criminally insane..."
