Corrected entry: After Jan and Marcia argue about Jan hiding Marcia's trophies in the closet, Carol and Mike take Jan to the den to talk with her. A few moments later, Marcia runs in to say she just got a call from the school...but we never hear the phone ring. In other episodes there are phones in the den, family room, living room, the parents room, and who knows where else.

Trivia: The teacher being honored, "Mrs. Whitfield", was played by Frances Whitfield who was the on-set "teacher/legal supervisor/referee" for the kids during the show's run.
Question: Would someone please explain to me why Marcia did not just simply remove her dangly bracelet that endangered the girls standing in the house of cards competition after Carol said "Oh Marcia, Marcia, your bracelet"? It would have made it less stressful on her not to mention her team, and she wouldn't have had to restrain it with her other hand.
Answer: The dangling bracelet was used for dramatic purposes - to keep the audience on edge.
Answer: There were several episodes throughout the run of the show where Marcia was infatuated with a guy she went to school with. This bracelet could have been a gift from her then-boyfriend; as such, she would not want to take it off, as a sign of loyalty. A stupid thing to do, of course, but it's not a mistake for a character simply to be dumb.

Correction: There was an obvious cut in time between when Carol takes Jan to the den and when Jan starts talking about hiding the awards. We can safely assume this cut in time was when the phone rang.
