Ch.1 The Lockdown!：周五学校突然宣布封锁（'Dr. Emer 进楼了'），格兰特老师让大家坐在黑暗角落、男女生间隔并手拉手保持冷静。A.J. 不得不握住最讨厌的安德里亚的手，还被朋友们取笑，孩子们则紧张猜测是否有疯人院逃犯闯进学校。
Ch.2 Crazy Week：保安斯宾塞警官宣布封锁解除，但逃犯仍未抓到。克鲁兹校长和贾菲副校长戴金发假发登场，宣布下周是'疯狂周'：周一疯狂发型日、周二疯狂服装日、周三疯狂帽子日、周四疯狂鞋子日、周五疯狂一切日。
Ch.3 Crazy-Hair Day：疯狂发型日全校师生都打扮得稀奇古怪，连格兰特老师都戴了紫色脏辫。一位头发扎成星战莱娅公主发髻的神秘女士出现在操场，自称莉兹老师，宣布教育局启动了'课间充实计划'——孩子们在课间也要学东西，男孩们都很失望。
Ch.4 An Important Life Skill：为迎接母亲节，莉兹老师教大家用气球做小狗当礼物。安德里亚质疑这没用，莉兹老师却用'面试时被要求做气球动物'和'坏人做气球动物就不犯罪'的说法说服了她，还自称大学读的是'气球动物制作'专业。
Ch.5 Crazy-Clothes Day：莉兹老师穿着垃圾袋，牵着一只从'山羊租赁店'租来的山羊 Pootie，教大家挤羊奶。没人愿意挤奶，A.J. 因为戴着护膝被点名第一个动手，觉得恶心得快吐了，发誓再也不喝牛奶。
Ch.6 Crazy-Hat Day：下着雨只能室内课间，莉兹老师戴着罗宾汉绿帽、拿着手风琴来教大家约德尔唱法（yodel）。克鲁兹校长听到后说自己年轻时在瑞士学过约德尔，竟加入一起又唱又跳、拍膝盖，把莉兹老师的头顶当鼓敲，场面非常欢乐。
Ch.7 Crazy-Shoes Day：莉兹老师脚上绑着网球拍，教男孩们用胳肢窝放屁（armpit farts），甚至能用它演奏歌曲，并用'被困在椅子上被堵住嘴'的理由说服大家这是重要生存技能。A.J. 发现只要一放胳肢窝屁，烦人的女孩们就会跑开。
Ch.8 Crazy-Everything Day：莉兹老师带来一箱蚯蚓教大家做堆肥，斯宾塞警官却突然冲过来逮捕她——她正是上周逃出疯人院的女人，冒名顶替了课间充实老师！真正的桑福德太太被从地下室救出，莉兹老师被发现在三十个州被通缉，被戴上手铐押走。
Ch.9 Every Week Is Crazy Week：下一个周一，山羊 Pootie 竟从'山羊租赁店'逃出来出现在操场，谁都不肯挤奶，A.J. 只能再次动手。虽然莉兹老师是冒牌货，A.J. 却表示会想念她——她虽然疯，但教会了大家挤奶、约德尔和胳肢窝屁等酷炫的本领。
