==Plot==
The episode begins with the narration of a girl saying, "This is a true story, and it happened to a friend of a friend of mine." where she explains about a high schooler name Janice, who's known in the school for her ultimate sense of fashion (wearing different outfits from lounge wear for study hall to even French clothing for French class). One day she encountered a new student, a girl name Tessa arrived, and Janice sees her as a fashion rival, due to the fact both girls wore the same dress, followed by them pulling a single thread from each dress, while saying "nice outfit" in a rude way.
For a while, both girls started to have a fashion wore by wearing different outfit, trying to outdo the other, until Later when it was revealed that a fashion tv show is coming to their school for a segment, Tessa and Janice decide to get an original outfit in order to outdo the other. So, after school, Janice went to a dressmaker the day before the event, where after finishing it up, she left. However later Tessa arrived at the same place and saw the dress, and offered to pay five times the amount, which she took the money and had to make another one, but Janice arrived and took the new dress, with her ignoring that dressmaker's plead to finish it.
On that day, Janice and Tessa showed up in the gym, revealing that they wore the same dress again and like before, they pulled a single thread from each dress, but because both dresses were not finished, they came undone, resulted in both girls' being exposed to not only the school but on national television.
The episode ends with the girl, who narrated the story that because of what happened, Janice and Tessa now wear overall pants for the rest of their school years (which might have been punishment for what they did during the segment)
