The Trouble with Sophia

## About *The Trouble with Sophia*

The episode happens shortly after *The Best is Yet to Come*. It is connected to **Hetty's Decline**.

## Plot

### Part I

Sophia Blackburn releases a new blog post -- a video -- in sophs-history-and-art.com, where she tells everyone to be respectful, in reference to some comments in her recent post.

> "*Oh Soph. Actually, it was a failure.*" - A random commenter
>
>

She greets everyone formally and happily. She also says that she is not dead, referring to comments saying if she is dead from COVID-19. However, she suffers from an emotional breakdown when she sees a comment saying: "**Can you PLEASE write about King George VI?! I MISS YOUR POSTS SO MUCH!!!**"

> *"I'm sorry, but I am no magician! DO YOU think I simply wave a wand and create a blog post?!*" - Sophia annoyed by the comments
>
>

Instead of writing the requested post, she ends up making last-ditch attempt of 5 random posts. They are called: "The Best Posts Ever (So Far)!", despite the fact that were they were rushed too quickly. Later, Sophia said that she was done with her blog and the Snowflake Team, creating a new team: Graceful Army.

> OK!! If you wanna find me, I'll be in the Tudor Photo Gallery! I will be next to my social studies teacher, Mrs Bonner, who is shaking my hand!! She will congratulate me for creating Graceful Army. With me, will be my BELOVED DADDY!!!
>
> Sophia on if anyone wants to find her

### Part II

Nearly three weeks later, Sophia releases a second video in her blog. The rude comments of Sophia's newest post appear, as well as several others asking if she is still active. Sophia breaks down again, eventually reduced to sobbing.

> IT'S TIME TO STOP!!
>
> Sophia Blackburn

After being escorted out by several family members (namely Howard, Erwin and Amelie), Sophia then starts her video again. She firstly tells the viewers to be nice, and soon asks them if they are tired of being in the Snowflake Team. She starts talking about her new team, Graceful Army, and tells Annabelle that she cannot do anything to stop it. Annabelle cries.

Afterwards, Sophia tries to convince why Graceful Army needs to exist, saying that she has created an entire list for things in Snowflake Team that are '**JUST RIDICULOUS**'. She says that three of the members are boring. She makes fun of:

* William Seymour for being angry all the time.
* Ellie Richards for being resentful to her.
* Hetty for being a boring friend.

She then starts talking about her new team being revolutionary and the future of Tudor Neighborhood. By the end of the episode, Annabelle; William and Ellie are shocked that their friend left the team. However, Hetty's emotions continue to decline.

## Trivia

* The episode is named after *The Trouble with Mr Bean*.
* Although Annabelle appears as the main character in the series, this is the only time she appears in a cameo.
* This is the first time we see that someone quit the Snowflake Team in the series, although there were other characters who retired from the team before Sophia herself.
* This episode is divided into two parts to save lag.
