## Plot

*The wrestling tournament has started at Crown Lake and the team is pumped.*

*Chloe accompanies Tiffany who says she is leaving Crown Lake to attend public school. Nellie joins them and tells them that Ms. Rose was a bully and she thought she was Heather. She then shows them the key that she gave to her, then Chloe asks them to follow her.*

*Nick is watching the wrestling tournament with Chad who blames him for giving him the drugs and suggests to turn him in. Nick says he has an answer to both their problems and to be quiet. After a while, most of the Crown Lake wrestlers are worn out and have no one else to take their place for the final match. So Josh and Ryan convince Kinkaid to put Lola in the final match since she’s already in the roster, which he agrees to.*

*Chloe, Nellie and Tiffany check Ms. Rose's office for clues to where the key would work. They search for a while but find nothing, until Tiffany finds a box with a key hole inside a book. Nellie opens the box with Ms. Rose’s key and finds a film roll inside.*

*The final match has begun and Lola has the advantage over her opponent. She struggles for a while but finds the opportunity to get back up and pins her opponent to the ground and wins the match, winning for her team. Everyone is proud and impressed, even Chad, but she is upset that Chloe wasn’t there to see it.*

*The girls play Ms. Rose’s old film roll. The film shows a girl going inside Charlotte Wellington’s muselium, Nellie recognizes the girl and says she its her mother, Dana Roth. They continue watching and see that Dana and other girls are pranking Ms. Rose who is walking to the muselium and scaring her. Nellie starts to realize that her mother wasn’t the victim it was actually the one who bullied Ms. Rose. Nellie can’t believe what she just watched, Chloe then reminds her that it’s probably what Ms. Rose was trying to tell her all along.*

*Nick sneaks into Tiffany’s room and tries to hide the drugs under her bed, when Josh sees him. Josh tells Nick that he will turn him in, then Merriweather walks into the room very angry.*

*Chad confronts Lola who is sitting with Ryan and Josh. He apologizes and says she was a great asset to the team. They both wish each other luck for next season and shake hands. Everyone else heads to class and then Lola is approached by Chloe who wants to talk to her. Chloe tells her she heard about her big wrestling match at the tournament and saved the team from losing. Then she acknowledges her bravery during the tournament and apologizes for not being there. Then they both confess their feelings for each other.*

*Ryan says one last goodbye to Tiffany before she leaves for public school and gives her a hug. Then Merriweather comes in the room and asks to talk with her.*

*Nellie notices that Nick has his luggage packed. He tells her that he has been expelled and that people ratted him out and warn her about him. She then figures out that he was the one selling the drugs to people, he then tells her that deep down that she is just like him saying she is meant to be popular. Nellie says she is nothing like him and walks away in pity.*

*Nellie goes to the basement with blue paint and cover the entire tattle wall with it. Then she sees a writing that said the mob pays her tuition, and remembers the only person she told. Lucy then confronts her saying that she wrote the writing on the wall. She mentions how she felt like she was being used by Nellie, being told what to do and calls her weak. She talks about how she had gotten kicked out of Hartford Prep, right when she received a letter from Heather who said she could get into Crown Lake if she did her a few favours. Then she tells her that she was the one who sent those threatening Heather letters to her the whole time. Then Erin and Becca see the writing on the wall and ask Lucy to tag along for dinner which she agrees and leaves with them.*

*Nellie, Chloe and Josh are having dinner together having a great time. Meanwhile, Lucy heads into the computer room to find a threatening note on one of the computers from Heather saying to keep playing by the rules or she will be punished next.*
