Plot[]
Tommy and the gang take an aptitude test to get a clue as to what they want to be when they grow up. After one of his films does badly at the showing in the Java Lava, Tommy loses his confidences in film making. When Dil tried to get Tommy's confidences back by having a film festival in honor of his work but didn't work out as he hoped it would as he decided to give up his dream of film making and become a businessman, like the aptitude test told him. Chuckie's a dare devil. Lil's a wedding planner. Phil's a male model. Dil's a public speaker. Kimi's a film critic. Everyone's career plans do not turn out according to plan, but Tommy is becoming quite successful in being a businessman with the school's business group, BLEC, much to Dil's chagrins. But all becomes clear during Tommy's marketing scheme of 'Lightning Chuck', when Dil brought his VHS camera to remind Tommy of who he really is, which he takes from Dil to film Chuckie wiping out at the marketing scheme. With Dil's help as he didn't give up on him, Tommy leaves the BLEC club as his confidences in film making have been restored. Tommy records a BLEC commercial of Phil being a BLEC gangster/gangsta? and dude, to make up for the mishap from 'Lighting Chuck'.
