Saturday School: Pipe Dreams (Saved by The Bell, 1991)

 When a local oil firm begins drilling for oil at Bayside High, everything seems normal at first. However, it also proves to be an environmental hazard with consequences that the oil company never considered.

From season 3 of the original Saved by The Bell, "Pipe Dreams" was one of the better episodes of the season. The complete episode can only be found on Peacock, as only excerpts are presently available on YouTube. We'll forego the risk of having to replace videos and serve up a screen shot instead:


To think this story began with Zack (Mark-Paul Gosselaar) caring for Becky, the duck, over the weekend.

Rating: A-.
