Too Cool for School the final episode ever of Tales from the Cryptkeeper and needless to say, these people have saved the dumbest for last. 

Jan and Stephanie are two utterly vapid imbeciles that like to skip classes, so naturally we can’t have that. They decide to bail on a Biology class because it involves dissecting a frog, which isn’t a big loss as these two are clearly barely functional for the real world and any dead frog is wasted on these two.

So, they decide to go to the Everglades because I guess that’s what normal school-hating dumb brats do when they skip class? They meet a professor that insist they help him with some science experiment, because it’s really making sense here that one would be conducting secret science stuff in that place and enlist morons to help.

Naturally, the two idiots make a mess of things, and this is framed as a lesson learned — never skip school or some other nonsense. Not don’t do dumb science stuff in the Everglades or don’t hire idiots to help you with said science stuff, or don’t waste resources educating dumb kids that don’t want to learn. 

Anyway, who cares anymore. The show has already ruined the Crypt Keeper enough by turning him into a nagging Karen that thinks psychological torture of misbehaving kids is the coolest thing ever, and now it’s dead. Everyone’s free now, even that moldy old ghoul, and the world is now a better, happier place.
