Dr. Copeland is the head of the math and science department at Harrison Prep. She's very concerned when Kim is accused of cheating on tests, especially when in the months after the accusation, Kim continues to perform well above what's normally expected and achieve near-perfect grades. To make sure there's no foul play, Dr. Copeland designs a test in which Kim is orally tested on math and science in front of a panel of the department faculty.
