Danny is producing his own television show as an end of term project. Fred and Scarlet are appearing but not The Pussycat Dolls, since Shane forgot to give Danny their message. Instead, there's Shane's manic friend Tony, who is somehow more annoying than Shane himself and almost ruins the show with his dreadful jokes and betrayal of Scarlet's secret. The show is saved but Scarlet just wants to be friends. Danny's mum comes to take him home but can he really abandon Shane to a lonely vacation?
