So, Tedd got home and sent an all-hands emergency text to all the main cast.  Even the ones that aren't in the know about Hope just yet. Meeting is happening soon.

First, Rhoda really does weigh next to nothing.  I compared the weight of my phone with her on and off the screen and there was no discernable difference. 

Second, the difference between an F and a C can be as tough as the gap from B to A. Appreciate those who help you build those bridges. 

Also, while Tedd probably sent the text alert, it may have come from Hope or Jeremy.

A possibility of the text being from Diana about Rhoda and Cat having magic was raised on Discord.  I give this about a 50/50 chance over it being a Tedd-a-gram.

"Don't know much about history . . ." - "Help me Rho, help, help me Rho; Help me Rhoda, yeah, help me be really smart . . ."

"Math is hard."    (Have some extra cookies if you know who said that in a notable context.)

Help me, Rhoda. Help, help me, Rhoda.

Help me Rhoda (Yeah!) to get her outta my heart!

/me song lyrics aren't puns.  Quoting dolls aren't either.  Just in case there was any question.

The movie seemed to fit on a normal sized screen, oddly enough. You'd think it would be 6:1 scale, right?

Help me, Rhoda. Help, help me, Rhoda.

"Don't know much about history . . ." because that seems to be Grace's major deficiency, so the rest of the song doesn't apply.

 

The original was "Help me Ron; help, help me Ron," one syllable name shortening. I did the same.

"Help me be really smart." was a rhyming cadence match for "Get her out of my heart." I don't recall a 'to'. Did you check the lyrics? 

Genius Lyrics has:

"Help me, Rhonda, help, help me Rhonda" - two syllable name;

"Help me Rhonda, yeah, get her out of my heart." - no 'to get'

Ah. My brother listens to The Beach Boys endlessly, and yet I never caught that l.
