Summary
Susie believes she has the talent to become an international pop star, but is awfully upset when she is framed for 1,000 dollars by a con artist.
Recap
After meeting a woman from a talent agency, Susie begins to believe that she has the talent needed to become an international pop star. The woman tells Susie that she has many perspective clients ready to meet her, provided she pays $1,000. Unable to come up with the money on her own or ask her parents for it, she turns to her older sister, Alisa, who has been saving up for a house. Alisa agrees to give her the money, however, when Susie arrives at the building she was told to meet at, she discovers it is deserted. Completely devastated to realize that the talent agency woman was actually a con artist, Susie goes home and tells her sister about what happened. While Alisa's obviously very angry (mostly out of worry for putting her life in danger like that), but is glad that Susie's okay and calmly allows to pay back the money. And despite her setback, Susie goes onstage at the Java Lava for a talent night and is a huge success.
Meanwhile, after seeing a group of students getting punished for a school prank, Chuckie decides that he is tired of playing it safe and decides to reinvent himself as Chuck, a boy who is not afraid of taking risks. With the reluctant help of Tommy, Chuckie superglues all of the basketball team’s sneakers to the bathroom ceiling but doesn't get caught for the prank. Chuckie and Tommy rig the soda and ice cream machines to explode all over Vice Principal Pangborn and replace his diploma with a photocopy of Chuckie’s rear. When they go to his office, the boys discover the Pangborn is a closet poet and inadvertently encourage him to read some of his works at the Java Lava. Inspired by Chuckie’s daringness, Pangborn only tells the boys to clean up their mess, much to Chuckie’s disappointment.
