Science isn't exactly Maeve's favorite subject, but she's still excited to be going to the Sally Ride Science Festival at MIT with her hunky tutor, Matt. Sure, the BSG and her annoyingly brilliant younger brother are going as well, but it's still almost kind of a date, isn't it? The festival gives the BSG a super idea — an environmental science fair at Abigail Adams Junior High.

Newcomers to Iowa are always amazed at the yearly changes in the heights of fields.
