Marlo and Milton are in wordsmith hell: Vice Principal Lewis Carroll orders all kids to compete in a War of Words, pitting Milton and Marlo against each other. Oscar Wilde coaches the snarky debate team, The Spite Club, and Dorothy Parker and Charles Dickens lend quips and barbs. The latest pun-tastic purgatory spoof is brimming with the series' reliably clever wordplay and wit.
