Schmidt gets a lead on HFS from classmate Molly, and he and Jenko meet the school's main dealer, popular student Eric. He gives them new identities and enrolls them as students, giving them class schedules fitting their previous academic performances Jenko taking mostly arts and humanities, and Schmidt taking mostly science classes, but the duo mixes up their identities.

Captain Dickson assigns them to contain the spread of a synthetic drug called HFS ("Holy Fucking Shit") at Sagan High School. The duo is reassigned to a revived scheme from the 1980s, which specializes in infiltrating high schools. They catch a break when they arrest Domingo, the leader of a one-percenter motorcycle gang, but are forced to release him after they failed to read him his Miranda rights.

Several years later in 2012, the duo meets again at the Police Academy and become friends and partners on bicycle patrol. In 2005, scholarly student Morton Schmidt and popular underachieving jock Greg Jenko miss their school prom, Schmidt being rejected by the girl he asked to be his date and Jenko being barred from attending due to failing grades.
