Student CHEATS on FINAL EXAM, Instantly Regrets It is a video made by Dhar Mann that was released on June 1st, 2021.
Plot[]
The video begins with Mikey Miller playing a Roblox game while he is in class. Mr. Wilson asks Mikey to answer a question. He asks Jayden, Mikey's brother, to check on him. Jayden does so by going to Mikey's room. He takes off Mikey's headphones and tells him that Mr. Wilson is calling him. He unmutes himself and Mr. Wilson asks what he has been doing. He says that his computer had problems and that it is working properly now.
While Jayden and Mikey are eating lunch, they talk with their mom about school. Mikey asks her if she can get a PS5; she agrees to do so if he and Jayden both get As on their final exam in math. An overconfident Mikey says that he will ace the test, and his Mom replies that she likes his confidence. Then, their mom leaves to answer a phone call, and Jayden nudges Michael and asks how he'll get an A if he has not been paying attention in class. He shows Jayden a website of the answers to the exam. However, Jayden says that it's cheating but Mikey denies this, replying that it's taking a shortcut. Jayden then lectures him, saying there are no shortcuts to success and declines Mikey's offer for him to use the website. Mikey tells Jayden to suit himself, then they go about their business again.
Their mother comes back and Mikey asks if he can still get the PS5 if Jayden doesn't get an A, but he does. She tells him in that case, he can play, but Jayden cannot. Mikey says it's fine with him and that he won't have to share, and blows a raspberry at Jayden.
The next day, Mikey takes the exam and copies the answers off of the website. Sure enough, all of the answers are the same as on the exam.
A few days later, Mikey asks his mom when he and Jayden will get the PS5. She did buy the PS5, exciting Jayden and Mikey, but she tells him and Mikey that no one will get the PS5 until she sees their test results. Suddenly, Mr. Wilson knocks on the door and greets Jayden. He informs their mother that he came to inform her about her sons' test results. He excitedly tells her Jayden received a perfect score (100%, the best score in the school), to the delight of Jayden and his mother. However, when she asks about Mikey's grade, Mr. Wilson's demeanor changes and says that Mikey also got all of his answers correct. This prompts Mikey to celebrate excitedly. However, when Mr. Wilson hands Mikey's test results to Mrs. Miller, she and Mikey are horrified to see that Mikey received a 0%. Confused, Mikey asks his teacher to explain everything. At that moment, Mr. Wilson reveals that he created the website Mikey copied his answers off of but mixed up the answers due to the fact that a lot of kids had been cheating ever since distance learning started. This means that Mikey failed both the exam and the class, and will be in Mr. Wilson's class again next year.
An outraged Mikey's mother furiously grounds Mikey for the whole summer, reiterating Jayden's point that there are no shortcuts for success and that you have to do things the right way. She then bans Mikey from electronics and video games, and also tells Mikey he is forbidden from the iPad and the computer, and is not even allowed to touch the PS5; she then turns to Jayden and says the iPad, the computer, and the PS5 are for him to play with, and he does not have to share them with Mikey, much to Mikey's dismay and Jayden's delight. Mikey is sent to his room as punishment and his mom tells him, "Just wait until I tell your dad about this." She then apologizes to Mr. Wilson. He apologizes too for being the bearer of bad news and praises Jayden before he leaves.
The video ends with Jayden asking his mom to help set up the PS5, stopping her in her tracks on the way to talk to Michael. Then, it cuts to Mikey leaning on his door in regret.

Errors[]
- When Mikey plays Roblox on his computer, the chat is in Spanish, and his movements on his keyboard and mouse do not match those on the monitor. This also happens when he plays Friday Night Funkin' on his iPad.
- When Mikey unmutes his microphone, the "MUTE" on the upper right-hand corner of his video does not disappear.
- When Mr. Wilson says, “Go ahead. Answer question 17 on page 33”, subtitles do not appear.
- Jayden's last name is Miller, but on his final exam, his last name is Borden. He shares this with Colin Borden. The reason for the change of surname to "Miller" in later episodes is currently unknown.
- On the iPad, it shows the battery has 2% remaining, yet everyone is unfazed.
- Mikey and Jayden are different ages but are shown to be in the same grade. This could be that either Mikey had to repeat other grades, or Jayden skipped grades.
- Jayden mentions learning Algebra and Geometry, but neither subject is taught until high school.
- When Mikey is taking the test, the monitor on the right was an iPad screen.
- It is shown that this episode takes place during the COVID-19 period, due to all of the students using Zoom for school. However, Mr. Wilson still showed up to their house in-person to hand the test results and he wasn't even using a mask.
- When Mikey is crying in his room at the end of the video, the subtitles say, "Okay, what do we got here?"
