Ep 3

Be True to You

Oct 1, 1999

Morgan tries to get a guy on her soccer team to like her. Hillary, as usual, accuses her of being too much of a tomboy. All Morgan has been doing in this episode is playing soccer, which is why Hillary tells her that if she wants to date the player on the team, she needs to quit and get into more ""girlish"" things. Morgan starts to go through with it until the Jersey transforms her into Clint Mathis, former star of the Los Angeles Galaxy. From conversing with teammate Cobi Jones, Morgan realizes that she should just be like herself and not worry about what others think. Morgan rejoins the soccer team and the guy ends up wanting to date her.

Heroes

Oct 8, 1999

Morgan, Elliott, and Nick are assigned individual projects. The theme for this project is to write about a hero. Nick wants to write about Rob Moore, wide receiver for the Arizona Cardinals. To gain experience, he wants to jump into Moore, but the jersey puts him into Junior Seau, linebacker for the San Diego Chargers. After the game, Nick learns that Seau is a real hero because of his charity he runs. Morgan has trouble finding a hero, but after some thoughtful thinking and Uncle Larry's help for her mother, she picks Larry.

Ep 5

Ouch

Oct 15, 1999

Morgan doesn't wanna be an alternate on the guys team. She declines the offer, thinking that she's better than them (and she proved it, too). So to get some ""real"" playing time, she jumps into Byron Defoe, goalie for the Boston Bruins. When she gets hurt, she wants an alternate to replace her, but all of the other goalies were hurt. That's when she learned the importance of an alternate. Meanwhile, Nick, Coleman, and Elliott are playing in their tournament and Elliott gets hurt. Morgan is nowhere to be found, so Phoenix Coyotes' star player Jeremy Roenick subs for Elliott.

Ep 6

Team Player

Oct 22, 1999

Elliot, Nick, and Morgan are assigned a project at school concerning the colonial period. After refusing Elliot's ""special"" idea and Morgan's numerous great ideas, Nick is not willing to accept either idea. They eventually fail the project. The group keeps arguing until the Jersey takes Morgan and Nick to an Atlanta Braves game. Nick is the pitcher, Kevin Milwood, and Morgan is the catcher, Eddie Perez. The opposing batter is Gary Sheffield, of the Los Angeles Dodgers (at the time). Morgan tries to give Nick good pitching types, but Nick just throws how he wants to. Well, Sheffield is definitely ready to hit a homerun, but Morgan knocks some sense into him and they get out of the jam. Finally, Nick learns his lesson and the three redo their project. The turn it in and get a. . .C+!
