### Full Plot

Andi is helping Bowie get his stuff from Judy's Bloom, ready to officially start his new job at Red Rooster Records. Bowie's girlfriend, Miranda Patrick, and her daughter, Morgan, stop by. Bowie introduces them to Andi. Miranda then starts complaining about how she has to run some errands with Morgan. This causes Bowie to ask Andi to watch Morgan while Miranda is running the errands. Andi doesn't like the idea but Miranda insists that she's sure Andi wouldn't mind sharing her "sewing hut," referring to Andi Shack. Andi agrees.

After getting inside the Andi Shack, Morgan gets on Andi's nerves when she calls it messy. Andi defends herself saying that she likes it messy because it is the one place where she feels completely free. Morgan then touches and destroys a bracelet that Andi was making, meaning that Andi would have to start from scratch. Andi had been making the special bracelet for Bex using the bracelets they wore at the hospital when Andi was born. To keep the pieces safe, Andi puts them in a shiny Tibetan prayer box and keeps it on the shelf. She asks Morgan not to touch anything else. She also notices that Morgan really likes the box. She asks Morgan if they're okay but Morgan just shrugs off.

While Andi is in the shack with Morgan, Bowie goes to CeCe's house to talk to the plants. When CeCe finds him, Bowie tells her that Andi is in the shack with a friend and asks CeCe not to go. CeCe figures out that something is up. So, she goes to see which friend Andi is with. Bowie follows her. Bowie introduces Morgan to CeCe and tells her about Miranda. CeCe is not happy about it and is disappointed that no one told her about this Miranda character. She goes to talk to Bex about it at The Fringe. After her errands are done, Miranda comes to pick Morgan up. Andi is disappointed that Morgan is so ungrateful and won't even say goodbye. She goes back to Andi Shack only to find the box with the bracelet missing. She looks everywhere but can't find it. She freaks out and runs to The Fringe as well.

At The Fringe, CeCe asks Bex if she knew about Miranda. She mockingly calls Miranda "Felicia." Bex explains the situation but CeCe insists that she needs to tell Bowie. Suddenly, Andi comes rushing in to report that Morgan has stolen the box with the bracelet. Bex, Celia and Andi call Bowie and tell him how special the bracelet is to them. Bowie tries to defend Morgan, which makes Andi unhappy. They call Miranda to explain the situation.

Miranda brings Morgan and forces Andi to apologize for calling her a thief. Andi refuses. When Bowie notices tension rising between Miranda and Bex, he asks everyone to calm down. He suggests searching Andi Shack again. He goes to search for it despite Andi assuring him that she looked everywhere twice already. Miranda and Bex follow. Andi is left outside with Morgan where they have an awkward interrogation. Andi insists that Morgan took it while Morgan insists she didn't. Then suddenly, Bowie mysteriously finds the box in a place where Andi had already searched. Andi is forced to apologize to Morgan. Bowie takes Miranda and Morgan home.

Andi and Bex are left wondering how the box got back there. Bex believes Andi is telling the truth. Andi wishes that Bowie could believe her too.

Meanwhile, the Space Otters Frisbee Team is doing a fundraiser by making and selling pancakes. Jonah Beck had asked Gus to send out a message to all the teammates to come help with the cooking but realizes at the last minute that Gus forgot to send the message. He then asks Gus to send a message to his friends to come help. But Gus reveals that he doesn't have any other friends besides Jonah.

Left with no other choice, Jonah invites Buffy and Cyrus to help. Unfortunately, Buffy and Cyrus are still fighting since Buffy gave Cyrus an ultimatum to choose her or TJ. Cyrus repeats that he chooses her over TJ but Buffy is concerned that Cyrus will become friends with TJ again once she leaves. Cyrus refuses to deny it, which makes Buffy even more mad. She stops talking to him. Jonah tries to convince them to make up but it doesn't work out. Cyrus begs Buffy to talk to him but she is very determined in holding her grudge. It becomes awkward when Cyrus does his hysterical clumsy things like accidentally pouring pancake dough on his shoes. Buffy wants to laugh but she can't.

Cyrus starts singing and then accidentally drops a pancake. It's so hilarious that Buffy can't help but laugh. At that point, Cyrus starts trying to hurt himself to make Buffy laugh. But she holds strong. Unable to take it anymore, Cyrus confronts Buffy to talk, to say something, anything. He says he can't handle the silence anymore. Jonah arrives and finds him yelling at Buffy. He tries to get them to stop fighting but they can't. He then notices that the pancakes are burning. He panics and says that he's having another panic attack. It turns out that it was just a scare. He then explains to Buffy and Cyrus about his panic attacks.

Cyrus reveals that he was having a panic attack too the time they were making a video. That's when he went to sit on the swing set where he met TJ, who helped calm him down. After realizing how Cyrus and TJ became friends, Buffy feels bad for trying to stop their friendship. She apologizes to Cyrus and tells him that he can be friends with anyone he likes. Buffy and Cyrus make up.
