The episode opens with Karma and Amy discussing a plan to make them popular at their very liberal high school. It is evident from the beginning that the two girls live very different lives from the depiction of their family. Amy is still not on board with Karma pretending to be blind and questions how they will even be able to make people believe it. The plan soon backfires when Karma catches a frisbee and throws it back. Lauren soon shows up with her 'minions' and orders Karma and Amy to get out of her light . Amy tells her not to piss her off and that she has access to her toothbrush. She later tells them to go back to the Isle of Lesbos when both Shane and Liam show up. After they chase Lauren off they introduce themselves. Karma becomes nervous at seeing Liam and runs off. Amy introduces herself and accepts Shane's party invitation before running of to find Karma. Once she is gone Shane comments that they would be the perfect "lesbian" friends. At Shane's party they are shocked at how everyone seems to be different compared to at school. Karma  gets up to get drinks when she sees Liam. We then see Shane enter and comment that everyone is wearing too much clothes. Lauren shows up since she is one of the lead candidates for homecoming which Shane comments no one cares about. She says everyone does and that is there to set things straight. As Karma gets the drinks and is about to leave the room she bumps into Liam and spills it over them both. He apologizes and she faints. Outside, Shane goes up to Amy who is waiting for Karma to come back. He says he has  been craving lesbian energy and Amy says even though she is flattered, she isn't gay. He then says he was like her once, afraid to be himself. Amy decides to go look for Karma so they can leave the party. Back inside Liam gives Karma his jacket and comments that her dress is see-through now. A girl, Brandy, shows up and tells her to back off because Liam is hers. He says he isn't her boyfriend and makes her go away. He says the girls become too 'clingy' and Karma says he should be grateful because if  it weren't for women being wired to reproduce the population would have died out. He says he is glad to have a lesbian around to tell him these things. She is shocked but before she can ask what he means Amy drags her away. Before they can escape, Shane announces that two people are afraid they won't be accepted. He says the only way to assure them they are safe is to elect them homecoming queens which generates applause. At the bus stop Karma and Amy discuss how its stupid that the school things they are lesbians. Karma  suggests they should see how this plays out. She also says she was sure Liam flirted with her and at that Amy thinks, she (Karma) must have hit her head. They arrive at school and make a scene, Karma kisses Amy on her cheek and runs off. Shane and the rest of the campaign are busy putting up posters of Karma and Amy where Liam comments that the lipstick one (Karma) is kinda sexy. Lauren spins in and begins tearing them down.

We then see Lauren finishing up her speech for why she should be voted for just as Amy and Karma come in. Before they can say anything she makes a point of telling everyone they are faking being lesbians and that she heard them talking about it. To keep up  the lie Amy grabs Karma and passionately kisses her. The school launches into cheer and they pull apart. Karma says "Way to sell it!" and winks before running off. Amy just remains in her place with a shocked expression that might hint she enjoyed the kiss.
