Plot

Angelica's mom, Charlotte, redesigned Angelica's bedroom for her daughter's birthday present, and Angelica's showing it off to Susie and Savannah. Angelica had told her mom to get rid of everything that was "pre-13," and Charlotte did, including Angelica's old Cynthia doll (which Charlotte claimed was "pre-5"). Angelica's upset when she realizes that her mom gave Cynthia away, and even though Angelica claims to be "all grown up," she realizes that she still wants Cynthia in her life. With Susie and Harold's help, they make various attempts to get Angelica's old Cynthia doll back, which in the end, they do. Angelica also realizes that while she can always tell Cynthia everything, like she did when she was little, she has other friends she can talk to about stuff, like Susie (which Susie is shown to be happy with).

Meanwhile, Tommy and Chuckie are punished by Vice Principal Pangborn after an incident during their study hall, but they end up accidentally destroying his PDA. Tommy and Chuckie's parents want to spend more time with them, but they overhear the boys talking about what they did with Principal Pangborn's PDA, but their parents think they did something really bad. In the end, Tommy's parents and Chuckie's dad find out what really happened, and are relieved that their sons aren't in any kind of danger.

At the very end of the episode, Cynthia winks at the camera.

Trivia

  • This episode shows that Angelica still has Cynthia after at least ten years (since Angelica first got Cynthia when she was around three). According to Charlotte, Angelica apparently stopped playing with Cynthia when she was about five or so.
  • It also shows that while the Cynthia dolls are still popular, the original ones (like Angelica's) are "practically extinct," and thus are very valuable.
    • Even Angelica's old Cynthia doll, while it wasn't in mint condition, was still very valuable.
  • This episode reveals that Kimi takes a hip-hop dance class, and Kira had to drive her to the lesson, which was why they weren't at family hour.
  • Phil and Lil don't appear in this episode, but their mom mentions them when Didi's at the Java Lava Coffee House talking to Chas.
