Diego gets into a shouting match with Stan's guardian within thirty seconds of meeting her.
It isn't entirely unprecedented, of course—parents are some of his least favorite people. But usually there's more warning, some building of resentment and/or irrational, pigheaded opinions about how he ought to be educating their children in the fine art of gym class, before they truly get down to it. So he kind of thinks he isn't the only one to blame, this time.
Of course, Allison doesn't agree with this kind of rationalization. When word gets back to her (he's blaming Luther, that snitch), he's called to the principal’s office, read the familiar riot act, and told that he needs to apologize. Yes, Diego, in person. No, he can't send a note home with Stan. Yes, as soon as possible.
