Miss Peters is in the hallway, pacing back and forth. She spots Jimmy and launches into a speech about the holiday season pageant she's putting on, and how the whole thing is about to be ruined because one of her percussionists has appendicitis. She begs Jimmy to take his place and "save the Christmas pageant". Jimmy tries to refuse on the grounds that Christmas pageants are for the little kids and this will be so humiliating for him that it will put him in therapy. Miss Peters then threatens to fail him in Music class if he doesn't perform.Out on the stage, Jimmy is forced to dress up as The Nutcracker and play the xylophone. Some of the non-clique students can be seen as well - Pedro and Melody are dressed up as flowers, and Eunice is dressed as a fairy. Pete is also dressed as a nutcracker, and is playing the timpani drum next to Jimmy.




Chapter III, titled Love Makes the World Go Around, is the third chapter of Bully. It involves around Jimmy taking on the Greasers. It takes place during the winter, starting shortly before Christmas and ending some time before Spring.




Later, Jimmy visits the Preppies, who are mad at him for helping the Greasers beat up Gord. Derby Harrington brings up that now Jimmy runs their clique, he shouldn't be helping their enemies and manipulates him into spraying graffiti all over New Coventry. Jimmy does so, and he's now in bad standings with the Greaser clique.

Jimmy then visits Earnest in the library, who tells him that Johnny is after Algie, because he thinks that Algie made moves on Lola. Earnest tells Jimmy to find Cornelius, who might know where Algie is. Jimmy finds Cornelius being bullied by the Greasers who are trying to intimidate him into telling them where Algie is. Cornelius says that Algie's at the pizza parlor, then the greasers run off looking for him. Norton and Vance stay behind to beat up Cornelius, but Jimmy stops them. Cornelius then tells Jimmy that he lied and that Algie's actually in New Coventry. Jimmy finds Algie and they both see Lola flirting with Chad. Lola ends up dumping both Chad and Algie at the same time, just before the angry Greasers arrive. Jimmy, Chad and Algie escape from the Greasers by riding bikes; Algie takes Lola's bike, while Chad and Jimmy ride on Chad's bike, with Jimmy shooting with his slingshot at the pursuing Greasers. They safely return to the school, where Earnest and Cornelius thank Jimmy for helping them.

Jimmy then claims the Greasers' hangout by beating them up. He then accidentally gets in the middle of an argument between Johnny and Lola. Johnny accuses Jimmy of trying to get Lola and she makes matters worse by getting them to compete in a bike race over her. After Jimmy wins, Johnny blames his bike and leaves to tune it up. Lola takes the opportunity to move in on Jimmy, which makes Johnny even angrier.

Jimmy meets up with Lola and she flirts with him. He tries to resist her, but she manages to persuade him to retrieve her stuff from the abandoned tenements the Greasers use as a hangout. He gets them, even though he has to fight a sledgehammer-wielding Norton.

He then meets up with Lola again, who tells him that the Greasers and Preppies are having a big brawl over her, and she insults him for not participating. Deciding that the only way to make an end of the fight is to stop Johnny Vincent, Jimmy decides to go after him. He tracks down Johnny's second-in-command Peanut, and beats him up along with Vance and Lefty. As Jimmy is gloating over this, Johnny appears and decks him with a single punch. The cops come and Johnny rides off on a bike, with Jimmy following him right behind with another bike. Jimmy successfully outrides the cops and follows Johnny into a junkyard, where a Greaser pulls a hidden chain across the road, causing Jimmy to fall off his bike. Johnny is riding a bike and wielding a length of pipe, and the Greasers are up on the piles of cars surrounding the junkyard throwing various weapons at Jimmy.

Pete, who inexplicably happens to be there, yells to Jimmy to get rid of the Greasers that are in his way so he can get to the crane. Jimmy does so, and Pete turns on the crane, taking away Johnny's bike and the pipe he was using to attack Jimmy with. Jimmy fights Johnny and wins fairly. Johnny then tells Jimmy that he can have Lola since he won the fight, but is shocked when Jimmy says he has no interest in her and that he can keep that "slut" for himself.
