"Jeffy's Homework!" is the 198th episode of SML Movies.
Synopsis[]
Jeffy has to be homeschooled!
Plot[]
Mario and Rosalina are watching Star Wars: The Force Awakens, but Jeffy irritates Mario with his cat piano that he recently got as a gift from Rosalina. Mario then gets a knock on his door from Mr. Goodman, and he tells Mario that he has to teach Jeffy his ABCs, how to count to ten, Math, English, Art and at least one sport with Rosalina, or else he will go to jail. Mario at first becomes infuriated and tries to commit suicide to prevent being stressed, Rosalina becomes angry, so Mario reluctantly agrees. Mario then comes and asks Jeffy to learn ABCs, but Jeffy at first mistakes it for animals and says his favorite animal is a carrot. Mario's response is to try and shoot himself, but Rosalina yells at him to stop.
Alphabet[]
During the first lesson, Mario asks Rosalina to bring flash cards, but Jeffy keeps screaming at the animal pictures on the cards. Mario decides to use a whiteboard instead, and he gets tired after Rosalina starts to educate Jeffy. He tries to sing along with Jeffy, and after the song, Rosalina puts the board down and Mario tells Jeffy to say his ABC's. Jeffy says them backwards, much to Mario's surprise, and starts spanking his diaper like as usual.
Numbers[]
The next lesson is how to count to ten, and Mario gets reluctantly annoyed by Jeffy repeatedly saying the object on the cards. After Jeffy reaches the tenth card, Mario says he's done, but Rosalina tells him he can keep going, and Jeffy continues, despite Mario's beggings. After reading the last card, Jeffy is told by Mario to count to ten, but he says his ABC's instead.
Math[]
The next lesson is learning math, and Mario tells Rosalina to bring in the cue cards, of which Jeffy mistakes for "cucumbers". The first card is 2+2, and Jeffy at first replies it's 74. Mario asks him how he got that, and Jeffy says he "pulled it out of his ass", much to Rosalina's frustration due to the language he used. Mario tells him to try again, and Jeffy comes up with "baby 2", and tells that how he got it is that there's a mommy 2 and a daddy 2, and they had a baby 2. Mario tries to tell him it is four, but Jeffy claims that it's "baby 2". Mario believes he's confused, and Rosalina pulls out another card, which is 8-4. Jeffy says it's 8, because the four is taken away.
Mario tells him it takes two 4's to make an 8, but Jeffy believes it's a baby 4 (two 4's love each other and make a baby 4) and tries to cover up the four on the card to prove his reasoning. Rosalina believes he has a point and covers it up, but Mario says 8-4 is four. After a conversation, Jeffy starts censored cursing his helmet, pencil, and diaper as well as various scientists while claiming 8-4 is eight. Mario becomes frustrated and tells him it is eight. Rosalina brings out yet another card which reads 0+0, and Jeffy says it's 2, much to Mario's anger.
Jeffy says there are two ordinary 0s who don't love each other so the answer is 2, and a stressed-out Mario starts an argument with him. After the argument, Mario claims Jeffy is a "genius" and skips to the next lesson, which is English.
English/Phonics[]
During English, Mario and Rosalina teach Jeffy phonics and Rosalina brings out a "frog" card. Jeffy pronounces it as "fwog", and claims Mario knows what he is saying repeatedly before telling to bring out the next card. Rosalina then shows him a "giraffe" card, and Jeffy reads it as "gi-da-raffe", but Mario tries to tell him the correct pronunciation and Jeffy says his pronunciation in response, each time saying it slower with his head closer to Mario's. The next flash card reads "yo-yo" and Jeffy says "why?". Mario tries to teach him the correct pronunciation but Jeffy keeps saying "why?" because he sees the Y. Mario says, "he knows English", and skips to the next lesson again, which is Art/Coloring.
Art/coloring[]
There is then a jump cut to Jeffy coloring a bug picture, making a mess with the bigger one, and Mario becomes so frustrated he just keeps his cool and passes the mess off as practicing. Jeffy colors a smaller bug green and does it inside the lines, making Mario and Rosalina proud of him.
Sports[]
Mario says there is one more lesson to teach, and that's "at least one sport". Rosalina suggests baseball, but Mario says that's too dangerous and comes up with tee ball. The trio goes near the dining room where Mario shows Jeffy the rules of teeball, and Jeffy asks if he has to tee his eyes on the ball before starting to throw his bat and missing the ball. After several misses, Rosalina and Mario give him a bigger bat, and Jeffy successfully hits the ball after a few other misses. Mario then grabs the ball and puts it back on the tee before Jeffy severely knocks him unconscious with the bat.
Jump cut to the evening that next day, where Rosalina and Mario are sitting next to each other, with Mario's face mostly blackened and his forehead wrapped from the teeball hit. Rosalina asks him if his swelling is going down, and Mario replies the doctor said he had a hemorrhage, just as Jeffy is playing his cat piano with the bat next to them. There is a knock on the door, and Mario weakly walks to open it. It is Goodman, who asks what happened to his head, and Mario replies it was teeball. Goodman then explains he is at their house to administer Jeffy's exam, while Mario shouts at Jeffy to stop playing on his piano. While Jeffy is doing the final exam, Rosalina tells Mario he's "concentrating" as he gave her his hat, and Mario starts beating his own butt on Jeffy's piano, causing Jeffy to become distracted and lip-synce to the piano, as the word obviously means the exact opposite of what she said.
Goodman then comes and says Jeffy's done testing, but he also says that he would like to say Jeffy passed the flying colors, much to Mario's and Rosalina's surprise, but Goodman reveals that over 90% of his exam was wrong. Goodman then shows them a paper with "8-4=8" written on it, and suddenly starts becoming just as stupid as Jeffy was while claiming what he wrote was right. Mario tries to reply back with the actual answer, but Goodman claims that Jeffy is a genius. He also claims we've created "Jeffy's Law of Subtraction", where in an equation if there is a top number that's big and we're subtracting from it, it's always going to be the top number because the bottom one is gone, thus concluding in the whole world presumably believing in Jeffy's reasoning. This causes Mario to shoot himself in the nose because he got annoyed, ending the episode.

Trivia[]
- This episode was uploaded 9 years after the game Super Paper Mario was released.
- This episode marks the debut of Jeffy's Cat Piano .
- This marks Mr. Goodman’s first appearance in a Jeffy video.
- This video was remade on May 8th, 2021 for the new SML channel.
- This episode confirms that Jeffy has special needs since Mr. Goodman says that he has special needs homeschooling.
- This is the first time an SML video revolves around school since "Bowser Junior's 1st Grade! Part 5".
- This is the 9th time Mario dies, the first being "Black Yoshi April Fools" and second being "The Warp Pipe!".
- The 10th time is "Jeffy's Favorite Song!", and 11th being "The Fishing Trip!".
- This is the first time Jeffy and Rosalina say censored strong language, and the first video to feature Jeffy's signature swearing tirades, which was later reused in "The Dog Show!" and "Smart Jeffy" before becoming a staple of his character.
- While Jeffy claims that his father taught him inappropriate language, Mario actually hadn't sworn in front of Jeffy in any video prior to this, with the exception of "damn" in "Mario the Babysitter!", which was said under his breath and was unheard by Jeffy along with 'faggot' in "Jeffy's Bad Word!" (though that was released 46 days later). Jeffy was most likely referring to his biological father, Jacques Pierre François.
- This is the most profane censored SML Movie with a total of 27 censored bad words alongside "Chef Pee Pee's Lottery Ticket" and "Cool Cody!"(although Cool Cody! has uncensored bad words) until it was surpassed by "Jeffy's Bad Word!" with 36 bad words.
- Of the censored fucks, 12 of them came from Jeffy.
- This is the first SML Video in 2016 to reach 4M views.
- This video reveals that Jeffy has zoophobia, a fear of animals.
- This, however, seems to have disappeared in later videos as he wasn't afraid of the squirrel in "Where's Jeffy?", he wasn't afraid of Harambe in "Jeffy Goes To The Zoo!", and he wasn't afraid of the Loan Dolphin in "The Hitman!". He also loves Giraffes and Elephants.
- It is possible he was doing this just to try and be funny, or to annoy Mario, as it was shown he screamed at an ice cream, which isn't animal, and was screaming just for the sake of it.
- This is the first episode where Jeffy and Mario argue with each other.
- Jeffy is actually a bit smarter in this episode, as he spoke some sentences clearly, and was also able to perfectly say the alphabet backwards, but this might not last.
- This episode confirms that Rosalina and Mario have seen Star Wars: The Force Awakens 50 times at a movie theater.
- This episode shows that Goodman is more stupid than he usually is, as he actually believed Jeffy's thoughts about math, when he obviously shouldn't have. He is also shown to be very unfair as he was going to arrest Mario for something that obviously wasn't his fault.
- The gun Mario used to commit suicide was the same gun Jeffy found in "Bowser Junior's Game Night 3".
- This is the 2nd time Mario and Rosalina argue, 1st being "Jeffy's Special Easter!".
- Jeffy's profanity censored rant was used again in "The Dog Show!" and later in "Smart Jeffy".
- From this video onwards, Jeffy's persona has changed.
- Jeffy's Law was later what Jackie Chu taught the class in "Jeffy Gets Bullied!".
- This is the first video where Goodman acts as an antagonist towards Mario.
- Logan's cousin Matthew Reber (Scooter's actor) said in a Q&A video that "Jeffy's Homework" is his favorite SML video.
- Jeffy calling the frog a “Fwog” is an unintentional reference to the character of the same name, from Big Blue Bubble's My Singing Monsters.
Errors[]
- When learning how to count, Jeffy actually says the word "strawberry" 51 times rather than 50.
- In "Mario The Babysitter!", when Jeffy said, "Feed me, I'm a giraffe", he pronounced "giraffe" correctly, so it is unknown why he couldn't pronounce it right in this episode. It's possible, however, that he may have forgotten how to pronounce it.
- When Jeffy said the word ass, he got scolded by Rosalina, but when he said the censored F word, he didn't get scolded by Mario and Rosalina. A similar error occurred in "Jeffy's Bad Word!".
- During the math scene with 0+0, as Jeffy starts to explain where the heart is on 2+2, Lance almost starts to laugh.
