Season One Episode Six

The sixth episode takes place in October, during auditions for the musical, Murder in Pleasantview.

## Main Plot

Before school, Holland hands a script to Lorem Larimore for the musical auditions that weekend. Lorem's friend Maple Delaney reveals that Lorem's nemesis, Lavender Burch, is also auditioning for the same role of Bella Goth. Lorem decides to sabotage Lavender's audition by delivering a fake script. In the library, Lorem prints out a song mocking Lavender, and delivers it to her. Lavender suspects something is going on.

Lorem performs a song for her audition, and does a great job with her partner, Alto Barclay. She's excited to hear Lavender sing the wrong song, but Lavender ends up singing the correct song, and playwrights Ollie Mansfield and Holland Bollinger love her performance! While Ollie, Holland, Carmen (who is writing music for the play), and their faculty advisor Ms. Cline discuss the audition, Lavender and Lorem fight outside. Lavender knew that Lorem tried to sabotage her, but she wasn't going to tell on her, because she doesn't want Ollie to think she's difficult to work with.

Lorem busts into Maple's room to confront her about telling Lavender about the fake script. Lorem tells Maple about her plans to send Ollie an email with a list of demands from Lavender.

Holland goes over to Ollie's apartment to work on the script when they get Lavender's fake list of demands via email. They know it's obviously fake, and talk about how talented Lavender and Lorem are, despite their immature behavior. Holland gets a burst of inspiration. Why not center the play on the Caliente sisters instead of Bella Goth? And they know exactly who should play the devious twins...

The next day, Ollie tells Lorem and Lavender the good news: they'll be starring in the school play! If they can get along...

## Subplots

Before school, Dora Capricciosa excitedly tells her best friend Holland Bollinger that she's getting her braces taken off this weekend. She's excited to debut her bare teeth at Oktoberfest in Windenburg. Holland needs to give out sides for the musical audition before they head in.

At Oktoberfest, Dora runs into her crush, Mason Reynolds. Feeling confident from her lack of orthodontia, she asks Mason on a date. He suggests they go to Villa Bovine, a fancy restaurant in Oasis Springs. Dora asks if they'll need a reservation, but Mason says it should be fine.

Dora greets Mason at Villa Bovine with a hug. They don't have reservations, and the wait is going to be four hours. They decide to go next door to The Shipwreck, a pirate themed restaurant for kids. The waiter embarrasses Dora when she doesn't order in pirate lingo. The dinner is already pretty awkward when a group of waiters sing Happy Birthday to Dora. They can't wait to get out of there...

They head to the movie theater to watch Wands of Desire, which is rated PG13. The cashier asks to see Dora's id because he doesn't believe she is 13. Dora is so embarrassed that she just leaves the date.

The next day at lunch, Mason tells Dora that he doesn't think they should continue dating. She cries.
