The Breakfast Bunch kids join Mathletes, but Lunch Lady senses something unusual about their opposing team. Next there's a rash of acne, and Lunch Lady suspects the school photographer has a maniacal plan. As usual, the kids, perceptive quasi-superhero Lunch Lady, and her sidekick Betty save the day. Rollicking action, humor, and bold cartoons deliver in these series installments.
