THE CARNIVAL IS IN TOWN, ON ABC'S "COMPLETE SAVAGES"

"Carnival Knowledge" - When the boys find out a church carnival is in town, they're all excited to go - each for his own reasons. Jack and Chris devise a plan to pick up on girls who have already entered the fair so they won't have to pay for their admission, and although trying to woo Angela, Sam reluctantly accepts her idea that they can go to the carnival as "friends." Meanwhile, as the boys are causing chaos at the fair, TJ has to finish his school report before he can go, but when he's done, the dog eats the memory stick containing his report... and TJ has a very hard time convincing Nick that the dog really did eat his homework, on "Complete Savages," FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12 (8:30-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
