== Plot ==
The episode starts with a shot of Luminous Beach, which cuts to the pavilion, which then cuts to Rockruff and Shinx sitting at the newbies' table and eating lunch with them while chatting. Shinx tells Rockruff that she can't wait for the upcoming Tickling Contest, and Rockruff excitedly agrees. As a result, they both squeal. After Hariet tells a funny joke, Rockruff, Shinx, Boom Boom and Wiggler laugh, but Shinx starts choking on the nachos she had eaten. Rockruff and Hariet help save Shinx's life, to which Shinx thanks the two. Shinx then admits in her confessional that she should stop eating her food before she laughs. When Rockruff excuses herself to use the bathroom and leaves, Shinx overhears laughing coming from some of the SMI crew. Shinx asks Topper what is going on, and he tells Shinx that Rockruff spread bad rumors about her and called Shinx some insulting names. Shinx becomes shocked, and is then furious when Rockruff arrives, telling her what Topper said. Rockruff then angrily admits that she did spread rumors about her, and Shinx tells Rockruff that they are no longer friends, to which Rockruff says the same. As the entire SMI crew (except Flygon) keeps laughing, Flygon looks up from eating her hamburger and wonders what happened.
Later, Luma and Chao announce that they are hosting for now since Rockruff and Shinx have become enemies. Chao hopes the two will become friends again, but Luma knows she will enjoy hosting and breaks the fourth wall by saying "TV show".
