However, John then starts displaying a vast knowledge of microbiology after "absorbing" the content from the books. Charlie decides to exploit this by having John take the test for him in disguise. At school, John aces the microbiology test by answering all of the professor's questions correctly, to the surprise of Charlie and the professor. Charlie is thrilled that his plan worked, while John is excited to continue attending school as Charlie.
