(A/N: This is an alternate version of the season 3 episode "Good Morning, Mr. Grumpfish. There are a few elements such as bits of dialogue that remain the same from the episode. Enjoy.)
The guppies all filed into the classroom.
"Today's gonna be a good day," Molly said to Gil.
"When is it not?" Gil said.
They heard someone come in, it was Mr. Grumpfish. The guppies were shocked.
"Uh, Mr. Grumpfish...what are you doing here?" Molly says.
"Where's Mr. Grouper?" Gil wonders.
"He's at the doctor for his once a month check-up. I'm your substitute," Mr. Grumpfish grumbles.
"Um, ok," Oona squeaked.
"So...what are we gonna do today?" Deema asked.
"Nothing. I'm not a teacher. I'm just going to watch you do whatever and make sure you don't do anything stupid," Mr. Grumpfish said roughly.
The guppies all dispersed to do their own thing. They all started talking.
"Why would Mr. Grouper do this to uuuuuuus!" Deema whined as she wept dramatically.
"I have no clue," Goby said in despair.
"Maybe it won't be so bad," Molly said hopefully. The guppies stared at her. Deema grabbed Molly's shoulders and shook her.
"This is MR. GRUMPFISH we're talking about!" Deema shouted as she shook Molly violently.
"Deema, stop!" Molly said. Deema calmed down.
"I hope he doesn't get mad. I'd hate to be around when he gets mad," Gil shuddered.
"Would he scare you if he got mad?" Nonny wonders.
"Please, he scares me period," Gil whimpers as he hides behind Molly.
"Well, we'll see how it goes," Molly says.
