Meanwhile, Gabriel hasn't done his homework, so he and Tony lie to the teacher and say that Gabriel's bag has been stolen. Gabriel is wracked with guilt, and Tony desperately tries to make him relax, or he might blow their cover! The next day, try as she might, Lara can't seem to lose a game of chess! Through sheer luck she ends up winning the tournament!! But she can't live with the guilt of lying to everyone around her, so she refuses the trophy, and announces to the whole school that she lied. Inspired by Lara's honesty Gabriel and Tony also confess that they lied. Both Lara and Gabriel learn that lying isn't worth it, and telling the truth is always best.
