Synopsis [spoilers]: Lily snoops in Marilyn's bedroom while she is "cleaning" it (actually, she was putting some cobwebs in it) and finds a letter from school saying there will be a gathering of parents at school. She tells Herman about it and they are a little upset, thinking that maybe Marilyn is ashamed of them and doesn't want them to go to the gathering. Herman asks Marilyn about it and she says that she didn't tell them because it will be a dancing party and she knows how Herman feels about such events. Herman says he will not go because he can't dance. Lily says he should make an effort and learn to dance; she is willing to teach him. After a few unsuccesful attempts at teaching him, they all decide it's best to enroll him at a dancing school, so that's what he does. The school owner tells the dancing instructor to flatter Herman so as to convince him to sign a 10-year contract. Herman is led to believe he is a great dancer, and there is no trouble making him sign the contract. At home, Grandpa reads the contract and finds out it's a big scam to take Herman's money. They call the police, who say they will investigate the school; when the school owner receives a call from the police, he tells the dancing instructor to suspect any student looking excessively naive; she tells him she already has one fitting that profile: Herman. The school owner takes a look at Herman and concludes he can't be a genuine student, so he tears up his contract, gives him all his money back, and tells him he has no future as a dancer, so he better stop his lessons. Herman is disillusioned and decides he won't go to the ball anymore; Lily says in that case she won't go either, but he insists she goes without him; she complies, but pretends to sprain her ankle while going down the front stairs, so she doesn'thave to go without Herman.
Saw it dubbed in Portuguese.
