## Summary

### Magic used

* Romi: transforms with Heartsping into Princess Heart (off-screen), and catches Tutuping with the Magic Catcher.
* Tutuping: uses eyeshadow brush and makeup palette to make Lena & Cindy fight over who’s the prettiest.

## Plot

Tutuping is seen walking up to a bench and notices that there’s a stray cat sitting right in her spot. She jumps onto the bench and steps on the cat’s tail to get it off, causing it to hiss and scurry away. She takes a seat and notices Lena, Hani & Cindy walk by.

Cindy compliments Lena’s new purple top that she’s wearing, but under her breath she thinks it looks cuter on her. Tutuping notices this and takes the opportunity to use her Tinkle Puff and make the two girls fight over who’s the prettiest. They grow pink eyeshadow and start to feud, while Hani tries to stop the two of them, while Tutuping walks away. Atop a building, Romi notices this and follows Tutuping, as she proudly proclaims herself to be the most beautiful girl in the world. Romi leaps down from the building in front of Tutuping and this leaves her stunned: Romi is actually the most beautiful girl in the world! Romi captures Tutuping, to the Teenieping’s delight.

Romi serves the Teeniepings a snack at the bakery: lemon tarts! They’re Tutuping’s favorite and Romi tells her to enjoy them, with Tutuping becoming increasingly enamored by her kindness. Heartsping, on the other hand, doesn’t like lemon-flavored sweets since they’re too sour, and wants a strawberry tart instead. Gogoping overhears this and takes hers, eating it for himself! This makes Heartsping sad, but Romi steps in to give her a strawberry tart, which makes her happy again. Romi appreciates this, but tells Heartsping not to be picky. Heartsping talks about how Romi’s strawberry tarts are the best, and this still makes Romi happy, and calling her cute. This bewilders Tutuping as she doesn’t get why Heartsping is better than her at being cute! So she comes up with a plan...

While the Teeniepings are playing, Tutuping gives Heartsping a strawberry tart that doesn’t seem to be suspicious. But really, Tutuping added lemon juice to it so when Heartsping takes a bite, she notices it and doesn’t like it! This attracts the attention of the other Teeniepings with Tutuping then saying she was trying to do something nice for her, to which Chachaping agrees. Gogoping, though, eats the strawberry tart for himself. After Heartsping gets upset at everyone for not believing her, Tutuping pretends to cry to try and garner sympathy from them. Lalaping cheers her up by (terribly) singing a song about strawberry tarts.

This all gets the attention of Romi, who is told by Tutuping that she tried to give Heartsping a strawberry tart but she snapped at her. Heartsping argues the tart was sour, and Romi decides to taste it herself through some frosting on Gogoping’s chin, and it is sour! Tutuping is asked by Romi if she added lemon juice to the tart to which Tutuping replies that “the princess” (Romi) said not to be picky with their food so she wanted to help Heartsping try sour food so that she would like it. This surprises Heartsping, who argues that should’ve told her before she gave her the strawberry tart in the first place.

Romi then agrees with Tutuping in that people shouldn’t be picky, but she doesn’t agree with how Tutuping did it. This makes Tutuping believe that Romi likes Heartsping more than her, with Romi stating that whether or not she’s better or worse than Heartsping doesn’t matter, and that playing tricks on friends isn’t nice. But Tutuping insists that she believes Romi hates her now since she’s “chosen” Heartsping over her, and she tearfully leaves the bakery.

As she’s leaving, Tutuping encounters the cat she saw from earlier and attacks her! The cat knocks Tutuping’s eyeshadow palette away, which she needs to use for her magic and it chases her down!

Meanwhile, Romi has prepared lemon tarts for Tutuping (perhaps as an apology), but Heartsping & Dadaping race in with a note from Tutuping, saying that she’s left the bakery! Despite not being able to tell what’s on the note, Romi and the two Teeniepings go searching for her.

They come across Tutuping’s eyeshadow palette as well as a strand of her hair, which worries Romi & Heartsping, but they soon find some footprints that look like a cat’s. They go and follow the footprints.

Meanwhile, Tutuping is still being chased around by the cat and she eventually hides in a secret spot so the cat doesn’t find her. While she tries to find some rest, and regrets leaving Romi, the cat appears on top of the trash can, and knocks down an empty tomato can, and it lands on Tutuping, trapping her inside! The cat rolls the can around, leaving Tutuping dizzy.

Dadaping then sees the footprints go near where Tutuping and the cat are, and eventually the cat tips over the can on the open side where it can see Tutuping. The cat sticks its claws out, ready to attack Tutuping, but at the last moment, a pair of books fly over covering Tutuping, and Heartsping steps up, knocking the cat away!

Romi retrieves Tutuping from the can, who’s relieved but also confused as to why Romi saved her even though she “hates” her. Romi reveals she was super worried about Tutuping, to which Tutuping says she got jealous of Heartsping and thought she wasn’t loved by Romi. She starts to cry, and Heartsping hugs it out with her and apologizes, patching things up between the two. Romi brings the Teeniepings home, with Romi telling Tutuping there are lemon tarts waiting for her, and it makes her happy again!

## Trivia

* This is the first episode where Romi appears in her transformed form without a transformation scene.
	+ This was likely due to save time, as episodes from the show are (around) eleven minutes and forty seconds.
* This is the first episode where a Teenieping allows themselves to be caught by Romi.
	+ The next episode where this happens is “Find the Lucky Stamp” after Goodping gives Romi a good luck stamp for helping save a kid from falling down the stairs while she chased Goodping.
	+ This doesn’t compare to episodes where a Teenieping joins Romi, such as “Dadaping, The Smart One” and “Welcome, Dear Hope!”
* Lena only wears her new purple top only once in the show, and never again.
* Tutuping writes a note saying that she’s left the bakery, but it’s hard to read.
	+ It’s hard to tell if it’s written in Korean, or maybe a language that the Teeniepings use.

## Errors

* After Tutuping steps on a cat’s tail, it’s seen wearing a bandage on it when Tutuping leaves the bakery. It doesn’t wear a bandage when Tutuping encounters it.
