## Plot

Having to make a presentation on the Spring Gala theme in front of dozens of parents, Katie feels like she can just wing it. However, when her initial idea for a beach party theme meets with resistance, she instead uses Oliver's idea of a Bollywood theme, which will be much harder to pull off. Greg makes an impulsive purchase of a special grill that he plans to use for roasting a pig, but his first attempt does not go well and he keeps the pig as a pet. Greg also pushes Eyo to convince Taylor to go to college, but Taylor instead inspires Eyo to follow his dream of being a manga cartoonist, upsetting his mother, Tara, greatly.

the episode starts with Katie and Greg in the kitchen. Katie wants to do something fun, Greg agrees, but Oliver doesn’t. The spring gala is a fundraiser, not a hoedown. The whole thing is about raising money. After Oliver says all that stuff, He gets a call from one of the girls who he broke up with. Anna-Kat and Franklin get an idea about getting a dog.

Katie: but I can’t have it. Every time it’s tears of sadness and I feel the sadness right in my eyes. I just feel sad because of what I did wrong.

Kristina: yes. And I’m so glad to share Taylor’s room with Taylor. If the purple room with the color blocks that says her sister’s name on it when I want to sleep there for a night or two.

Carly: damn you go girl. Man, you know that room with Anna-Kat’s name on the blocks over it is also my office. If you wanna sleep in their in the bed for a night if you decide, that’s my guess.

Katie: aw sweetheart it’s ok. Come here. (Both hug and rub each other’s backs during it while Anna-Kat is still crying tears of sadness because about Kristina staying in the Ottos house for a couple days) (says this paragraph during the hug) it’s ok.

Taylor: (continues eating while Anna-Kat is still crying tears of sadness)

Katie: (says this paragraph during the hug) (sighs) listen. I know you don’t like it when someone takes other people’s rooms to sleep over for a couple days and I understand, but don’t worry. Some of it is still featured in the hall of fame. You’ll always have your room and I love you so much. I always love you so much and I understand it’s sadness but sometimes we cry over it and I know that you’re crying because you don’t want to leave your room I know. (Both hug more) it’s ok.

Kristina: so this dinner is great and this place is very cool.
