Synopsis[]

Tired of T.J. and his friends getting all the glory from King Bob, Lawson decides to get a new gang of his own together.

Trivia[]

  • This was the last Recess episode to premiere on ABC, and also the last one to premiere before the release of Recess: School's Out. After this, while the show would continue to air in reruns on ABC, the last few new episodes would premiere in syndication.
  • This episode was initially intended to be the series finale before the remaining episodes were pushed to air after the release of the movie.
  • This episode has a warning message in Disney Plus Spain.
  • Before the commercial break, T.J. breaks the fourth wall, saying, "Recess will never be the same." After the commercial break, a shortened version of the intro plays, but Lawson interrupts and says that he has an idea. The intro plays again, but with Lawson's gang in place of the Recess Gang.
    • The second act opening with a shortened version of the show's intro is a reference to the "B" segment of each episode being preceded by said shortened intro (obviously without Lawson's interruption) when the show was originally airing on ABC. The shortened intro was removed from all other episodes on cable reruns and Disney+, but was kept in this episode.
