He brings Anne to see it; she uses an app to translate it, which transports them to Hell, where they gain demonic features. Michael is caught by a two-headed demon that appears to be a hybrid of Principal Malone and cook in the school cafeteria. The teacher is asking about how to torture a bank robber, to which Michael gives idea of feeding the money to the robber. Michael then comes up with the torture of forcing a man to wear an aquarium as pants filled with piranhas; the screams would power a fan which would release more piranhas. Anne finds Michael, showing him a map to escape Hell. They arrive in office of Mayor, where he tells them the Earth time and thanks them for choosing his portal. At home, Michael asks Father and Mother to let him study in Hell. They meet with the principal, who convinced his mother. Michael excels in all of his subjects and fell in love with Abby. For his final test, he must torture someone who was not fair to him, someone who hurt him, someone who was mean to him, someone who bullied him and there where chosen his father. His father was always angry with him, he was strict, rude and didn't give him anything for free, but in the finale he backed away and forgave his father all the bad. Then he received a diploma from the school principal with the words that to err is human, but to forgive is divine.
