Final Verdict As Episode 7 of 13, “Gifted Program” is the emotional turning point of Season 1. On the DVD9 format, it shines with clean analog-style compression and rewarding bonus features. For collectors, the hidden Ava blooper and the commentary track alone justify owning the physical release over streaming—especially since the streaming version cuts the post-credits tag (Melissa trying to remove glitter from her hair three days later). abbott elementary s01e07 dvd9

Ava, more concerned with her podcast equipment budget, agrees only if Janine can find funding without costing the school a dime. Meanwhile, Gregory Eddie (Tyler James Williams) secretly helps Janine plan the curriculum, revealing his own childhood trauma of being placed in a poorly managed gifted track. In the B-plot, Melissa Schemmenti (Lisa Ann Walter) and Barbara Howard (Sheryl Lee Ralph) compete to see whose “old-school” teaching method produces the best student artwork for a district display—leading to passive-aggressive glitter sabotage and a surprise tie.
