Brooklyn-born Gabe Kotter returns to his old high school, but this time as a teacher. He's put in charge of a class full of unruly remedial students called the Sweathogs.

Barbarino is the only one without a date for the school dance.

The Sweathogs give a new student teacher the treatment.

Horshack is the only one to volunteer to fight Carvelli, the toughest guy in school.

When Epstein is caught smoking, the other Sweathogs take on the task of breaking him of his habit.
