### Repost

Being the new girl is never easy!

Amaya is trying her best to make friends, but with everyone still bummed about Bella, she feels like she’s being shut out of the group. Amaya wants to show that she isn’t replacing Bella, but that she’s a part of the team! To prove it, she has an amazing fashion idea that will bring everyone together!

## Plot

Amaya begins the episode in the her dorm, where she asks an annoyed Jade about her makeup. She answers and it becomes clear the distaste she has. Poppy then enters and asks for Jade's shirt, inspiring Sunny and Violet to swap looks along with Ruby and Skyler. Amaya is however left out of this which causes her to feel sad, but Sunny comes in to remind her she's part of the team.

The episode then cuts to the girls working on their runway project, with Amaya giving her thoughts on their designs. Jade reacts rather harsh to this, being very passive aggressive and protective of Bella's runway designs. Skyler then mentions Bella and all the girls begin talking about how much they miss her, making Amaya feel uncomfortable. It then cuts to Sunny and Amaya walking through the halls, where Amaya happens to discovers the Color Change Chamber, giving her an amazing idea. She works together with Sunny and gets her to round up all her friends.

They then all enter and are surprised to see Amaya, with Jade being the most unsure. Amaya then opens up to the girls, letting them know how she longs to be included, and doesn't want to take Bella's place. Skyler reassures her but Amaya still wants more, saying how she loved seeing everyone swap clothes. She then gives everyone a new garment and has them each step into the Color Change Chamber one by one, being amazed by the colorful results. After seeing this Jade in particular apologizes, realizing Amaya has a lot of talent to being to the table. They then all embrace and take a group photo, uniting them.
