Zoey asks for a tempura roll - which is cooked in a wok - and Kazu reluctantly
agrees because it is Zoey who asked. Kazu then tells Chase he can deliver the
last takeout orders. There are two stacks of three, and Chase takes all six,
because he is anxious to join the others at a movie. Coach Keller excuses himself
to go to the bathroom -
and asks Kazu to make sure the kids don't take his food!
Outside on the steps, Chase trips and falls down the steps, splattering sushi
everywhere. He yells as he falls, which everybody inside hears. They all
come running out, including Kazu (but not Coach Keller, who is in the
bathroom). They run to Chase's aid at the bottom of the steps, Zoey lifts his
head gently - he is OK, and gets up. While they are outside, the wok flares up
and catches the order
tickets above on fire. Later, the fire spreads to a paper lantern. Coach Keller
comes out of Sushi Rox with a fire extinguisher and warns everybody that Sushi
Rox is on fire. Nicole pulls the fire alarm.
The next morning, the firemen are still at Sushi Rox with a dejected Kazu
sitting on the steps outside. Chase and Nicole come up to join him - Dean
Rivers and some others are also outside. Chase apologizes, but Kazu says it
wasn't his fault. Nicole, though, says that, if he hadn't tried to take all the
orders at once - then she realizes it isn't helping and stops herself. The
firemen hand some photos to Kazu, but he can't bear to look, and hands them to
Chase. Dean Rivers talks to the firemen - the structure is OK, but it is
destroyed inside. Kazu tells Chase he doesn't have much insurance. Chase
reminds him that there is cash in the safe, but it is mostly burned up -
except for a $5 bill, which the fireman misinterprets as a tip!
Chase joins the others at a table outside, and shows them the pictures. We
only see one close up, but from Lola's comments - the others aren't pretty.
Logan blames Chase and Zoey - if Zoey hadn't asked for the tempura roll, and if
Chase hadn't tripped, it wouldn't have happened. The others don't agree and
call it a freak accident, but Coach Keller comes up and blames Chase. Chase
tries to reason with him and get him to calm down, but it makes him madder.
When Michael comes to Chase's defense, Coach Keller vows to give them both a
piece of revenge pie.
Kazu is loading his car. Nicole and Lola talk to him and help him load. He
is going back to his "homeland" - which is actually Birmingham, AL, not Japan!
They learn that there is $10,000 worth of damage to Sushi Rox, he can't
afford to repair it, and he will be back in two weeks to collect the rest of
his stuff. He dons a cowboy hat, wishes them "adios amigos," turns on the
country music - and drives off.
The kids are in the boys' dorm room discussing what to do. None of them has
$10,000 to help Kazu, so they need ideas on how to do fundraising. Quinn
enters with a novel scheme - kidnap babies long enough to clone them, return
the babies, then sell the clones to parents who want to adopt. The others are
shocked and horrified - and Michael pretends to be interested so he can usher
her out the door and lock it. They still need a real idea - and Zoey thinks
of a people auction. Students sell themselves to teachers to do odd jobs.
The rest of them think it is a good idea, and they go to Dean Rivers with the
idea.
Janitor Herb (from Defending Dustin) conducts the auction, which we join as
Chase and Michael are auctioned off. The buyer, however, is Coach Keller!
Chase and Michael know that they are about to get revenge pie, but nobody else
bids. The auction proceeds stand at $6,000.
Next to be auctioned - Lola, Nicole, and Zoey. Bidding is brisk while Logan
is on the phone - but instead of bidding $400 when expected, he bids $4000!
Zoey and the others object - the auction was supposed to be for teachers only.
But that was never written down in the rules, so Dean Rivers cannot stop
Logan's bid. The girls object that he doesn't have that type of money - but
Logan had been on the phone to his father, who loves PCA AND Sushi Rox. So
when Dean Rivers talks to Logan's father on the phone, he OK's the bid. The
auction has reached its goal of $10,000! But the girls wonder what Logan has
in store!
Logan is primping in front of a mirror in his room. Zoey, Nicole, and Lola
arrive - late - and ask what he wants them to do. Zoey argues with him - but
he reminds them that, if they want the $4,000, they have to do anything he says.
He rolls out a clothing rack with cheerleader outfits on it - they are to
follow him around, cheering his awesomeness!
The boys reluctantly approach Coach Keller - who hands them a fish. Since
they burned down Sushi Rox, he wants them to make him a spicy tuna roll!
Logan's cheerleaders show up when he is eating lunch. They are not very
cheerful, and Logan demands they act like real cheerleaders. They huddle and
come up with a routine on the spot. Of course, a crowd gathers to watch.
Logan's revenge against Zoey and Lola is sweet, and Nicole is probably just a
bonus for him (since she also has decided to despise him).
Chase and Michael's attempt at spicy tuna roll is disgusting-looking. Coach
Keller is not satisfied with their best efforts and has them go to their next
job. All he wants from the meal is the bottle of Blix.
The girls have to cheer while Logan is sunbathing. He makes them do it twice!
The boys are sanding bunions on Coach Keller's feet! After they finish that,
their next job is to be a sparring partner for Coach Keller's son! He comes
out in a karate outfit!
The girls go sit at a table. This is their worst day, ever. We learn they
have to do it for three more days! Nicole thinks they look cute in the
outfits (they do).
Coach Keller's son is really beating Chase and Michael up! They run off, but
he goes after them. They fly through the air, landing in front of Coach
Keller. He tells them that is what revenge pie tastes like, and thanks his
son for hurting them!
Back at the table with the girls - Zoey has a plan. They will cheer
EVERYTHING Logan does.
Logan's pleasantest fantasy turns into his
worst nightmare!
The next morning, the boys are asleep in their room. The music is sinister
and scary. As we focus first on Logan sleeping, the camera sweeps to the foot
of his bed. His cheer squad is there - with a LOUD wakeup cheer! Chase and
Michael wake up and smile - they know that Logan is about to get his (like
they got theirs the day before).
The girls are now following him after he takes a shower - with a "get back in
the shower" cheer. He is starting to get annoyed - and thinks they are crazy!
Chase and Michael are obviously helping the girls, they have locked Logan out
of his room!
Later, Logan asks a girl from one of his classes out, but she only likes him
as a friend. The girls jump out and do a "Logan got rejected" cheer. He has
had enough, and hands them their check if they will just leave him alone.
Quinn is leading a blindfolded Kazu back into a completely refurbished Sushi
Rox. When he takes off his blindfold, there is a surprise party with
everybody there to
welcome him back. He promises to stay, and Chase can keep
his job - and gives free sushi to everybody. All are partying as the episode
draws to a close.
CLOSING LINE:
Coach Keller: "I said sushi!" (with the u in sushi short instead of the normal
long).
NOTES:
Chase still has his job at Sushi Rox, which he had in first season episode
"Webcam."
In a real life fall situation, NEVER lift the fall victim by his head like
Zoey did. If they suffered a spinal injury, that could paralyze them.
Lola probably aggravated Logan by telling him that his birth was an accident
of nature - setting up his revenge in the auction.
Lola's last name is again given as Martinez (which is the official name of her
character in Spring Break-Up as well).
Coach Keller continues the PCA "stupid coach" persona, but this is a cast
change. The coach in "Disc Golf" was also stupid - but his name was Coach
Phelps, not Coach Keller.
Another example of Jamie Lynn Spears' expert acting skills - when she expresses
both utter revulsion at having to cheer Logan, but still manages to be
"cheery." The mood swing
is lifelike and a pleasure to see.
It is a pleasure to see a talent Jamie has in real life. She is a competitive
cheerleader, and her team won 4th place in the national championships in
Orlando.
SYMBOLISM ALERT: As Kazu drives away, the license plate on his car reads
"Sushi Rox" - symbolizing that the sushi bar is leaving PCA (unless the kids
do something).
