Plot
SPOILER AHEAD! Important details about the plot or story are up ahead |
Miss Simian is then thrown into depression, which causes her to ignore everything and everyone, letting her class mess around. Gumball and Darwin take notice to this and try to go to lunch, however she asks Gumball if she could hang around with him. After he rejects her, Gumball goes on a rant pointing out how Miss Simian continues to follow him around anyways, still depressed.
After Gumball and Darwin try to shoo her away, they reluctantly let her in the Wattersons' house. Nicole, however, immediately disapproves of her on her property, in which she demands her out. Miss Simian then goes on a sob story trying to stay friends with the family. However, the kids and Richard ask her not to leave and the boys take it upon themselves to teach her what friends do.
Gumball and Darwin try some ideas to teach her how to be a good friend. First, they try to play Dodj or Daar, but abruptly quit because all of the cards are about Miss Simian. Gumball then uses an ice cream scenario in which he tries to get her to share invisible ice cream. However, this only makes Gumball feel uncomfortable after a while, so they try something else. Gumball then tries a high five exercise, but merely gets smacked in the face by Miss Simian's "high five."
After a while, Miss Simian starts to become more accepted to the family, by literally blowing Richard's stomach, and entertaining the children. Nicole, however, does not approve of this and threatens her, however, Miss Simian argues that she has changed and that she means no harm. Nicole decides to take her word for it and lets her go. Shortly afterwards, Miss Simian convinces Gumball to quickly write a letter of recommendation for her, which he does without a second's thought. Miss Simian cheers, and leaves the Wattersons.
Nicole and the Wattersons then search around the school for Miss Simian, having baked a cake for her positive emotional change. Rocky, however, reveals that she has left because she has "finally got some losers to write her Favorite Teacher nomination." Nicole then flashes back to several times Miss Simian called her a "loser," and realizes she has been tricked and angrily chases after her.
The Wattersons catch up with Miss Simian on the freeway and attempt to ram her down. She, however, outmaneuvers them, and mocks them. Nicole gets even more enraged and demands her family to try alternate methods to take her out by having Darwin shoot candy and throwing random things. Miss Simian laughs before realizing she lost the note before finding it on her antennae. Nicole then tries to get Richard to grab it, which he attempts reluctantly. This causes the cars to go out of control and tip Miss Simian and her car over an overpass. Gumball then asks her if she wants to be their friend and offer to change her heart. Miss Simian rejects them and grabs the note, in exchange for falling into the overpass. The family then mocks her for a bit, before Nicole stops them from being sadistic enough to laugh at injured people.
Miss Simian later receives her award, and despite ending up in a wheelchair and full-body cast, believes that it was "so worth it."

Trivia
- This is Miss Simian's first major role.
- In this episode, it is revealed that Nicole, Richard, and many other characters graduated in the 1980s.
- This was the first Gumball episode to purposely premiere at the halftime of 7:45 instead of 7:30, likely to help with the ratings of the show Level Up, which had recently started airing.
- On the "Favorite Teacher Award" at the end of the episode, it displays Miss Simian's name as "Mrs. Simian," noting that she may have been married before.
- This episode marked the first time in the series that the Dodj or Daar motto was completed with no interruptions.
Continuity
- The title card music from "The Mustache" is reused.
- An instrumental version of Fine Lady can be heard in the scene where Miss Simian mocks Nicole's hairstyle during the Elmore Prom.
- It is revealed in Nicole's flashback that Miss Simian used to call her a "loser" all throughout her life. This also marks her second flashback in the series, the first being in "The Gi."
- Miss Simian's license plate number is 66666, just like the Donut Cop's police car in "The Third."
Cultural references
- The scene in which Richard tries to grab the letter from Miss Simian's windshield is reminiscent of the chase scene in Back To The Future Part II.
- The way Richard runs after he gets off the cars is similar to Sonic the Hedgehog's run.
Goofs/errors
- When Miss Simian is on the couch tickling Richard, and he rolls off, Darwin suddenly appears from where Richard was lying.
- The license plate number as well as the window stickers on Cartax frequently disappear.
- Gumball's seat in the car shifts at one point.
- When Miss Simian is sitting with Gumball and Darwin at the cafeteria table, many students are seated at a nearby table. However, when the camera angle changes, the same table is empty, and other tables now seat different students.
- Miss Simian's seatbelt disappears and reappears randomly.
- In the scene where Richard is trying to grab the note, one can see two of Anais, and two of Darwin.
- Although the title of the episode is "The Ape," Miss Simian is actually a monkey (specifically, a baboon).
- When Darwin spits hard candy at Miss Simian's car, holes show up on the hood before any of the pieces connect.
- In the flashback of Nicole and Richard's wedding, Richard was not screaming like he was supposed to be in "The Wand," implying that he was exaggerating.
- In "The Goons," Richard said that the sofa would be cramped if more than three people sit on it at once, but in this episode, the sofa seated five people comfortably. This error occurrs in many episodes, such as in "The Finale."
- When Nicole leans back and says, "And that, kids, is why you wear seatbelts." in the car, her head linework overlaps her left shoulder.
- Despite Rocky saying that nobody likes Miss Simian, Principal Brown does.
- However, he probably meant that no student likes her.
- In the scene where Richard is in Miss Simian's car, Richard says "Hi," and Miss Simian says "Five!" and high-fives him in the face. The captions mistake "Five" for "Bye!"
- Colin and the black rectangle are in the flashback to Nicole and Richard's wedding, despite both being children in the present.

The Last Trophy
- [Rocky is seen polishing some trophies of Miss Simian, when her reflection is seen in the glass. Rocky yelps and drops the trophy]
- Lucy Simian: [Dives toward the trophy] Careful, numbskull! These trophies are symbols of my excellence as a teacher. It took me 754 years to collect them all.
- [Rocky mumbles]
- Lucy Simian: What was that?!
- Rocky: Hello! "Favorite teacher award"? It's like the best one and stuff, but you'll never win it.
- Lucy Simian: Why not?
- Rocky: Because you need a letter of recommendation from a student who, uh... actually likes you.
- Lucy Simian: That sounds easy enough.
- Rocky: [Laughs] Seriously, though, no one likes you, Miss Simian. Not even me! And I like everybody.
- [Rocky runs away]
- Lucy Simian: Nobody likes me? Hmm...
In Class
- [Miss Simian continues to think even in class as Gumball and Darwin watch her]
- Gumball: Dude, I think something's wrong with Miss Simian.
- Darwin: What makes you say that?
- Gumball: She hasn't told anyone off all day.
- [Gumball faces behind. The camera changes views, showing all members of the class causing a massive chaos]
- Darwin: That is weird.
- [The school bell rings]
- Gumball: Hey, guys! Wait up!
- Lucy Simian: Gumball?
- Gumball: [Nervous] Yeah...?
- Lucy Simian: You and I are friends, right?
- Gumball: [Faces to Miss Simian] Are we?
- Lucy Simian: Well, what with all the detentions and everything, I guess we spend a lot of time together.
- Gumball: Uhh... I guess so. Anyway, gotta go.
- Lucy Simian: Just one more thing. Would you mind if I hang out with you just for a little while?
- Gumball: Uh... yeah. Yeah, I would. [Walks out of the class]
Break Time
- [Scene changes to Gumball and Darwin in the school yard]
- Gumball: Basically, she asked to be my friend. Well, I told her "no," obviously. [Camera pans to Miss Simian] But she's just following me around.
- [Scene location changes to the cafeteria, where Gumball, Darwin and Miss Simian having lunch together]
- Gumball: And the strangest thing is, she's completely unresponsive. Watch. [Launches a pea using a spoon into Miss Simian's face, gaining no response from her] See? Nothing!
- Darwin: Hmm. Try something hot.
Return to Home
- [Gumball and Darwin are on the way to their home, with Miss Simian following them]
- Gumball: [To Darwin, nervously] Is she still there? [Faces behind, camera view changes to Miss Simian]
- Darwin: Yep.
- [Darwin starts walking with Gumball for a few steps before turning to Miss Simian again]
- Darwin: Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!!
- [Brief silence]
- Darwin: Huh?
- Gumball: [Grabs a stick and throws it toward Miss Simian] Fetch!
- [Miss Simian acts depressed and does nothing, then they give up]
- Gumball: [Sighs] I hope things get better tomorrow. [Continues walking with Darwin]
Unexpected Guest
- [Scene changes in front of the Wattersons' house, from which slurping can be heard. Scene changes inside, with the Wattersons watching Miss Simian drinking milk from a bowl of cereal]
- Nicole: What is she doing in my house?
- Lucy Simian: [Stops] I'm sorry. I just that maybe we could share a nice breakfast together, but since you all hate me, [Stands up] I'll just go. [Approaches the door] I'm walking.
- Darwin: [Sadly] It's so sad.
- Lucy Simian: This is me... on my way. I'm at the door... [Grabs the door knob]
- Anais: [Sadly] This is kind of harsh.
- Lucy Simian: I'm turning the door knob. [Turns the knob] I'm opening the door. [Opens the door]
- Richard: [Starts crying] I don't know why, but I'm crying!
- Lucy Simian: Boy, it sure looks lonely out there. [Shuts the door]
- Gumball: [Cries] Mom, why do you hate Miss Simian so much?
- Nicole: [Annoyed] I don't want to talk about it.
- Darwin: [Crying] Please, let her stay!
- Nicole: [Sighs] Okay. She can stay, but—
- [Miss Simian interrupts Nicole from the window]
- Lucy Simian: Oh, thank you! You're such a kind and friendly family! [Camera zooms] You know, [Heads down] I never had friends before. I don't even know what friends do.
- Gumball: Don't worry. We'll show you.
Therapy Session
- [Gumball, Darwin and Miss Simian are outside of the house]
- Gumball: Now, a very important part of friendship is sharing. Imagine you both have ice creams.
- Darwin and Lucy Simian: Oh. [Pretend they are holding ice cream]
- [Darwin moves his tongue as if licking ice cream]
- Gumball: But what's this? Darwin has dropped his ice cream.
- [Gumball waits for Darwin to mimic the ice cream dropping, but Darwin doesn't stop licking]
- Gumball: I said, "Darwin has dropped his ice cream."
- [He wings his hands over Darwin's hand as he knocks over Darwin's ice cream]
- Gumball: Splat!
- Darwin: [Stops briefly, then looks down] You got it on my shoes.
- Lucy Simian: Uh, do you want to share mine? [Moves her hands as she breaks her ice cream in half]
- Gumball: [Gasps] Very good.
- Lucy Simian: Ice cream, Darwin? [Hands her hand as she gives an ice cream to Darwin]
- Darwin: Aw, thanks! [Starts moving his tongue as he licks the ice cream again]
- Lucy Simian: But, Gumball, you don't have an ice cream. Want to share mine?
- Gumball: Sure!
- [Miss Simian starts licking, then Gumball also starts licking, literally, but then stops licking]
- Gumball: Oh... [Starts licking again]
- [Camera zooms to Gumball's tongue trying to avoid touching Miss Simian's tongue, then he gives up]
- Gumball: Dude, [Whispering to Darwin] this is so gross!
- Darwin: Why don't you pretend you have your own ice cream?
- Gumball: [Sighs and facepalms] Ugh! Why didn't I think of that?
Hi-Face
- [Scene changes to the bench area in a Stadium]
- Gumball: Friends also high-five, like this.
- Gumball and Darwin: [Toss] High-five!
- Gumball: Okay, now—
- [Miss Simian pushes her hand into Gumball's face]
- Gumball: No, I mean slap my—
- [Miss Simian repeats the same thing]
- Gumball: Let's move on to the next lesson.
Dodge or Dare
- [Scene changes to the Wattersons' backyard]
- Gumball: How about we all play game, like friends do? Here's one we made up. It's called...
- Gumball and Darwin: Dodge or Dare!
- Gumball: Roll the dice.
- [Miss Simian rolls the dice]
- Gumball: Take a card.
- [Miss Simian takes a card]
- Gumball and Darwin: What'd you get?
- Lucy Simian: "Put a gooey hair ball in Miss Simian's lunch."
- Gumball: [Gasps] L-Let me take that.
- [Gumball takes the card that Miss Simian had and hands her a deck of cards, which Miss Simian takes one of them]
- Gumball: Pick another.
- Lucy Simian: "When Miss Simian's back is turned—"
- Gumball: [Chuckles] A-Actually, let me pick one for you. [Starts searching for cards] Uh, cover Simian in slug juice, drop water balloons on Simian, Miss Simian, Miss Simian, Miss Simian— [Throws the cards away and giggles] Heh heh. Forget the cards. Here's a dare: make the most annoying noise possible.
- Lucy Simian: [Brief pause, then attempts to scream] Eeeh...
- Gumball: O... kay. That was... good, but we know that you can do better.
- Darwin: Like when you're mad at us.
- Lucy Simian: Oh, you mean this little thing? GUUUUUUUUUMBAAAAAAALL!!!
- [Miss Simian's scream is so loud that it produces ultrasonic residue and makes both Gumball's and Darwin's skin slides back and shows their insides of their mouth]
- Gumball and Darwin: That... was... awesome!
- Gumball: High-five!
- [As before, Miss Simian pushes her hands into Gumball and Darwin's faces]
- Gumball: That still needs a little work.
- [View changes to backyard window, with Nicole watching Gumball, Darwin and Miss Simian while doing her dishwashing]
- Nicole: I've got my eye on you, Simian.
Family Fun
- [Scene changes to the living room of the Wattersons' house where Richard is laughing on the couch]
- Richard: Ha-ha-ha-ha. Do it again! Do it again!
- [Camera zooms out showing Miss Simian blowing into Richard's stomach again, while Nicole watches the family laughing. Richard falls off the couch, laughing and revealing Darwin standing behind him]
- Lucy Simian: [Hugging Gumball, Darwin and Anais] I'm so pleased to finally have such great friends!
- Gumball, Darwin, Richard, and Anais: Ahhh! We love you, Miss Simian.
- [Camera zooms to Nicole]
- Nicole: Sorry, kids. Miss Simian, c-can I have a word with you [Angrily] in private, please?
- [View changes to the dining room]
- Lucy Simian: [Sits on a dining chair] Yes, Nicole, how can I help you?
- Nicole: Listen, Simian, you might have the rest of them fooled, but I don't trust you for a second. [Lunges forward] I remember you from school. I remember the horrible name you used to call me everyday.
- [Camera zooms towards Nicole and Miss Simian]
- Nicole: Do you remember that?
- Lucy Simian: [Regretful] Yes, I do. And I'm sorry.
- [Camera zooms to Nicole]
- Nicole: [Surprised] What?
- [Then to Miss Simian]
- Lucy Simian: I was that horrid person for so long, and look where it got me. No friends, no family, [Covers her face] just bitterness and wrinkles.
- [Camera zooms to Nicole who is still surprised and back to Miss Simian again]
- Lucy Simian: [Hugging herself] But even an old ape can change. [Points to Nicole] Will you give me that chance?
- Nicole: [Thinks for a second] Oh, I don't know. It's all happening so fast.
- [Miss Simian rushes forward and hugs Nicole from behind]
- Lucy Simian: Ple-e-e-e-e-ase?
- Nicole: [Shudders] Okay, I'll-I'll give it another shot.
The Letter
- [Scene changes to Front of Wattersons' house, then into the living room]
- Gumball: What do we do now, best friends?
- Lucy Simian: Uh, let's see. I know! Best friends write letters to each other about how great they are. [Gives a notepad to Gumball]
- Gumball: Wow! What a... friendly idea. [Takes the notepad] What shall we write?
- Lucy Simian: Um...ooh... How about "We, the aforementioned, unanimously agree that Miss Simian is worthy of this year's Favorite Teacher Award."
- Gumball: "Favorite Teacher Award." Okay! Done it!
- [Miss Simian quickly takes the notepad from Gumball, and laughs maniacally]
- Lucy Simian: It's mine! [Holds the notepad into her chest]
- [Miss Simian dances away in glee as hip-hop music plays]
- Lucy Simian: Ah-a! Ha-mmm! Ah-mmm! Ah-a! Ah-a! Uh-hmm! Uh-mmm!
- [Scene changes to the window]
- Darwin: Look how happy she is.
- Gumball: That's the power of friendship.
Horrible Memories
- [Scene changes to Elmore Junior High]
- Gumball: Wow! You baked that cake for Miss Simian?
- Nicole: Yeah. I think she deserves a second chance. [Walking towards Rocky] Is Miss Simian around?
- Rocky: Nah, dude. She just drove off. You should've seen her, all dancing and laughing, saying she finally got some losers to write her a "Favorite Teacher" nomination.
- [The scene goes slow-motion, Nicole gasps and drops the cake, which shatters upon hitting the floor]
- Nicole: [Anxiously] What was the word she used?
- Rocky: [Slow-motion] "Losers."
- [Nicole's eyes grow wide and the scene changes to a flashback of her as a baby, falling after a few steps, and her eyes well up with tears]
- Nicole: Unh!
- Lucy Simian: Heh! Nice first steps, loser!
- [Nicole, as a kid, falls from a bike that was hitting a rock]
- Nicole: Unh!
- Lucy Simian: [Laughs] Nice cycling, loser!
- [Nicole, as a student, sits at her desk as Simian looks at a poem she wrote]
- Lucy Simian: Nice "poem," loser!
- [At the school reunion dance, Nicole has permed hair]
- Lucy Simian: Nice hair, loser.
- [At Nicole's wedding with Richard, Miss Simian passes by with her car]
- Lucy Simian: Nice husband, loser! [Laughs maniacally]
- [End of flashback. Scene returns to the school]
- Nicole: [Angrily] Everyone, get back in the car.
- Richard: [Eating Nicole's cake off the floor] Now?
The Chase
- [Scene changes to Miss Simian driving in her car down the expressway]
- Lucy Simian: [Laughing] Soon the trophy will be mine!
- [Nicole bumps into the rear-end of Miss Simian's car with her own car]
- Nicole: We'll see about that, you two-faced baboon!
- Lucy Simian: There's nothing you can do about it, loser!
- Gumball: Mom! What are you doing?!
- Nicole: Something I should have done a long time ago. [Presses down on gas pedal]
- [Nicole and Miss Simian's cars bump a few times. Gumball, Anais, and Darwin sway as the car shakes]
- Nicole: Kids, throw stuff at her!
- Gumball: But isn't that dangerous?
- Nicole: Not as dangerous as disobeying your mother!
- [Gumball, Darwin and Anais grab soda cans]
- Gumball: Sorry! Eh! [Throws the soda cans outside the window]
- [Miss Simian begins to swerve]
- Lucy Simian: Ah! Oh! Aaah!
- Anais: [Reaches for candy in the car seat] Open your mouth.
- [Anais loads the candy into Darwin's mouth, and he fires it at Miss Simian like a machine gun. The candy cracks Miss Simian's windshield]
- Lucy Simian: Aah! Ohh!
- Gumball: I hope you like pepperoni! [Drops a pizza box on her windshield]
- Lucy Simian: Aaaaaah!
- [Miss Simian's car into the rails and drives tilted for a little while. She notices the recommendation letter about to fly out and grabs it]
- Lucy Simian: That was close!
- [Miss Simian's car tilts back to normal,but she rides off a ramp made of dirt]
- Lucy Simian: [Midair] Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!
- Gumball: Cool!
- Lucy Simian: Not coo-o-o-o-l!
- [Miss Simian's car lands right side up]
- Darwin: I thought you were our friend, Miss Simian.
- Lucy Simian: Ha! Who needs friends when you have this letter? [Notices the letter isn't in her hand] Aah! Huh?
- [The letter is stuck on Miss Simian's car antenna]
- Nicole: There it is, Richard! Get it!
- Richard: Do what?!
- Nicole: I'll get closer, and you'll lean in and grab it.
- Richard: Seriously?
- [Nicole gives him a serious look, and Richard rolls down the window]
- Richard: [Reaches out the window] Little bit closer, honey! Ooh! Almost... there! Aah!
- Gumball, Darwin, and Anais: Dad!
- [Richard holding on to both cars]
- Richard: Oooh-whoo! Whoo-oooh!
- Nicole: Hold on! [Drives closer to Miss Simian]
- Richard: Waaah-ha!
- [Richard's head falls through Miss Simian's car window]
- Richard: Hi.
- Lucy Simian: Bye! [Repeatedly slaps Richard in the face with her palm]
- Richard: Ow!
- [The cars break through the rail as a truck approaches them]
- All: Aaaaaaaah!
- [The two cars separate when the truck goes by. The cars then come closer and Richard is standing on both cars]
- Richard: [Grabs letter] Got it! Ha ha! Aaaaaah!
- [Richard drops letter, which gets wrapped around the antenna again, when he sees rail]
- [The cars separate and Richard is left running on a car ramp until he goes flying into the air]
- Richard: Whoooooa! [Explodes somewhere off the road in the woods]
- Nicole: [Bumping into Miss Simian as she says each word] Never... trick... my... family... again!
- Anais: Mom, watch out! [Nicole swerves]
- Gumball, Darwin, and Anais: [Spinning] Wooooaaah!
- Lucy Simian: [Laughs] Aaah! [Smashes through a warning sign]
- [Nicole's car stops]
- Nicole: [Panting heavily] And that, kids, is why you wear seatbelts.
- Gumball: Where's Miss Simian?
- Lucy Simian: Uh... huh... ah... ah-hey!
- [Scene changes to Miss Simian trying to reach the letter on her windshield, and her car tipping over the ledge]
- Gumball: Miss Simian, no!
- [Miss Simian looks towards Gumball]
- Gumball: You could still be friends with us if you like.
- [Miss Simian glances at the letter, then glances at Gumball, Darwin, and Anais]
- Lucy Simian: Nah! [Grabs the letter, and the car falls of the ledge] Aaaaaaaaaah!
- [Gumball, Darwin, Anais, and Nicole look over the ledge as a crash and explosion are heard]
- Gumball: Ohhh.
- Richard: What did I miss?
- Gumball, Darwin, and Anais: Dad!
- Nicole: Oh, just Simian taking a little tumble.
- Richard: Maybe that'll teach her for "monkeying around."
- All: [Laugh]
- Nicole: We shouldn't laugh. She may be seriously hurt.
- Richard: Well, you shouldn't have "gibbon" her a second chance.
- All: [Laugh]
- Nicole: No, really. That's enough.
- Richard: Well, she shouldn't have "orangu-tangled" with us.
- All: [Laugh]
- Nicole: I said that's enough.
So Worth it
- [Scene changes to Miss Simian (bandaged and in a wheelchair) putting a trophy on her shelf in school]
- Lucy Simian: That was so worth it.
