[edit] Plot

The episode starts with Courage trying to replace a tire on Eustace's truck. Unfortunately, he jacks it up too high, and ends up flipping the truck on its side. This enrages Eustace, who points out several other tasks that Courage has gotten wrong, and suggest that he goes to "right-thing-doing" school. Muriel interrupts, saying that Eustace got a package, which turns out to be a broken bugle, which Eustace uses to torment Courage. Soon, Courage decides to help Muriel make some baklava, which he also fails at, breaking the table. As Courage leaves to tell Eustace to fix the table, he encounters a schoolmarm, brandishing a ruler, who begins criticizing everything Courage does. She soon begins teaching him how to walk perfectly, talk perfectly, and tells him to sleep perfectly, all of which he fails. During his sleep, he has several nightmares. The next morning, the schoolmarm tells Courage that he will be taking his final exam today. He asks to use the bathroom, which she tells him to use as an opportunity to perfectly brush his teeth. While doing so, Courage hears from the fish Muriel was using to make her baklava, who tells him that nobody is perfect. So, Courage returns and takes the final exam, which is to draw a perfect number "6". Courage draws an extremely artistic picture, which confuses the schoolmarm, until he folds it to reveal a 6. This causes the schoolmarm to become extremely enraged and she melts into the ground. The episode ends with Muriel, Eustace and Courage all enjoying Muriel's baklava.
