Ep 12. Once in Love with Amy

Cory becomes smitten with a girl named Amy while she tutors him in math. Initially, he tries to play it cool, but soon he becomes convinced that he is in love with her. In hopes of impressing her, he starts to study more diligently and takes up a number of extracurricular activities, including playing on the school basketball team. However, Amy remains largely uninterested in Cory, causing him to feel disheartened.

Meanwhile, Eric, Cory's older brother, decides to take up a career as a weatherman.

He confides in Cory and his best friend, Shawn, who try to offer him words of encouragement.

As the episode progresses, Cory becomes increasingly distressed over his lack of success with Amy. He tries to talk to her, give her gifts, and even write a poem about her, but nothing seems to work. Meanwhile, Amy becomes increasingly annoyed with Cory's excessive attention, leading to a confrontation in which she tells him that she does not return his feelings.

Despite this setback, Cory refuses to give up on his pursuit of Amy. He continues to try to impress her, ultimately leading to a misunderstanding in which Amy believes that Cory has stolen a test from her. After a tense confrontation, Cory confesses his feelings to Amy and admits that he has been trying too hard to win her over. To his surprise, Amy reciprocates his feelings and the two decide to start dating.
