          ''Don't think that all your heroes are pure because they too were humans like us''

          When Steve returns school after getting a good grade for a study on LORD OF THE RINGS' Aragorn Stan mocks him because Aragorn is not real and Steve's heroes should be real like Stan's. He shows in his office two closets: one full of Ronald Reagan paraphernalia and another full of stuff in support of the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Team as they are his heroes. However Roger confesses that he was in the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Team and he made the team win because he was on steroyds. So Stan tries to find the truth and asks to Ronald Reagan's ghost how he would have handled the situation if he had to face it. In the meanwhile Hayley tries her hand again with Reginald the Koala (who is infatuated with her).

          Stan's storyline was very funny despite most of the LORD OF THE RINGS references didn't make sense in some points and Hayley's storyline was mostly boring despite Reginald the Koala did even a good Jean Claude Van Damme impression. Not a bad episode but one that really didn't struck me.
