-When the musical starts, he runs off, and in the school yard his real parents arrive, calling him Alexander Hubley. Hub explains that they abandoned him at a boarding school with other rich kids, then he bailed and came to Springfield. But instead of going home with them, he went to do the play, telling his and Skinner's story instead. In the end, we see Lisa at the writer's room with [[Milhouse]] and the others not really helping her rewrite the script.
