Popular with the students and effective in the classroom, Ron has been nominated several times for Teacher of the Year. However, Ron is a silent partner in the only adult "entertainment" store in the city. Ron has been able to keep this secret for three years and enjoys the thrill of teaching along with the money from the store. One Saturday Ron needed to cover for his store partner because of an emergency when in walked Betty, a fellow teacher with Ron, who was buying a gag gift for a bridal shower. When asked why Ton was there, he was honest and said he owned the place.
