"Presenting Stewart Walldinger" is the thirteenth episode of the second season of Pepper Ann. It aired on November 14, 1998.
==Synopsis==
Pepper Ann adamantly objects to Nicky bringing Stewart Walldinger as her date to Sketch's party because she thinks he's a big nerd.
==Plot==
Pepper Ann is unexpectedly invited by Sketch and her friends to an eighth grade party while adding "totes your amigs". Pepper Ann and her friends quickly deduce that she means "bring your friends" and are excited. She brings this up with Trinket and Cissy and asks if they are going, but admit that they are not because they do not need that pressure. Cissy adds that she would need to bring a date this time around, which concerns Pepper Ann as she has never asked or brought a date anywhere. Pepper Ann and Milo work together to interview possible candidates to be their date.
Nicky arrives and tells Pepper Ann and Milo that she has invited Stewart Walldinger. This news shocks Pepper Ann as she thinks that he is the least cool person at Hazelnut and therefore a terrible choice to take. While Milo tries to continue with the candidates, Pepper Ann does everything she can to deter Nicky from taking Stewart to the party, though all of her efforts comically fail. Pepper Ann is ultimately forced to take Milo as her date and tries confronting Stewart, only to learn that he is not a bad guy and even shares similar interests to her and leaves embarrassed when Nicky arrives.
On the way to the party, Pepper Ann tries to be upfront with Nicky and Stewart and inadvertently reveals their feelings for each other; cementing their relationship. Seeing how happy they are, she gives up and arrives at the party to defend Stewart's honor, only to learn to her embarrassment that everyone already knows Stewart and are cool with him. Sketch nevertheless, congratulates Pepper Ann for bringing her friends and she pats herself on the back, but loses her glasses; resulting in dancing with a hat rack she thinks is Milo.
