But Kenny has a conscience, and keeping silent while Alice takes the flak is getting to him. Kenny thinks he's making it better by being friendly to the poor girl--until the other kids start yelling, "Kenny loves Alice. " He knows he's a dead man if he's hooked up with Alice, so this time it's his mouth that "blows a gasket"--blurting out that he hates Alice. Now he feels even worse. Kenny believes there's a good person somewhere inside him, yet he's blowing so much hot air that he's turning himself into a sneak and a liar--everything he doesn't want to be. Somehow he has to get himself out of this mess... but can he do that without pinning the "Stink Bomb" label on himself?
