Goddamn, I wanna see this episode again. Woodman as Deep Throat was awesome. He hid out in one of the stalls in the men's room. All you could see of him was a pair of Chuck Taylors underneath the stall door. I wanna say he did a "You can call me Deep, or you can call me Throat" bit, but I might me dreaming that.

The Sweathogs work on the school newspaper to investigate a burglary.

DETAILS: When the school newspaper, The Buchanan Bugle, criticizes
Freddy's recent performance in a basketball game, Gabe suggests that the
Sweathogs join the school newspaper to defend themselves. After a break-in
to Principal Lazarus' office in which confidential records were stolen, Vinnie
and Epstein become investigative reporters ("Vinstein") and then Mr. Woodman
tells them to "cork" the story after the cafeteria's liver supply is robbed.
However, Horshack finds a lead from a note inside his twinkie -- from Deep
Throat. In a take-off of All The President's Men, the Sweathogs investigate
and write a story to expose the liver scandal with information from Deep
Throat, who turns out to be Mr. Woodman.
