Plot[]

Main Plot[]

Darth and Julie are smooching near the table by the Big Squeeze. Caitlin's reaction to the sight is to express disgust, but Jen thinks that it's actually pretty sweet. Caitlin is confused as to why Jen would think that geeks like Darth and Julie kissing is sweet until she realizes that Jen must have a new main squeeze. She asks Jen for details, and Jen tells her that he's a Greeter God she met in Grind Me the previous day, and that they're dating. Caitlin and Jen squeal over this news, and Wyatt looks around to see that seemingly everyone in the mall is in love. Jen explains it as love being in the air, but when they sniff, they realize something else is in the air: Jude's butt perfume. Nikki then shows up with Jonesy in tow, with Jonesy happy about Burger McFlipster's deal on two-for-one chili dogs. Wyatt is annoyed by this, as he thinks that two-for-one chili dog week is a bad idea, but Jonesy and Jude are ecstatic, as they didn't realize that the promotion was running all week.

Later, Jude lubes up his board with Maxi-Wax so that it'll run smoother. Wyatt is a bit wary of such an idea, as he knows it's used for mainly industrial purposes, but Jude's certain that it'll let him go faster. He then proceeds to try and board down the escalator, and the wax acts as intended, speeding his journey. However, it works too well, sending him into the Penalty Box, where he crashes into a goalie net. To make things worse, his hands have swelled up as a reaction to the wax, and they're now itchy. Jen plops a pair of hockey gloves on them to keep Jude from scratching, and Wyatt pushes Jude out of the store so that he can get cleaned up.

After they get cleaned up, Jude sees a poster advertising a movie's premiere and a way to win free tickets to see it. Wyatt wants in as well, and soon they head over to make their video–without Jonesy or Nikki, as Nikki likes sci-fi, and Jonesy's taking her out to lunch at the food court. When Jonesy and Nikki get there, however, Nikki tells her boyfriend that she can tell he's still thinking about making a video with his friends in order to win free tickets. She sends him back to do it, but when Jonesy gets there, Wyatt and Jude have already made their video. Jonesy still wants to do it, though, and he gets an idea to make the video with Nikki against her protests.

When judging time comes, the winners are Darth and Julie, chosen on the strength of their thirty-seven video submissions. There are two more winners, though: Jonesy and Nikki. Nikki is shocked, as she doesn't really want to see the movie, and more than that, she doesn't want to see it with Darth and Julie. However, when movie time rolls around, Nikki goes to the film with them, but finds herself seated behind Julie, who is still wearing a taco hat. Darth, meanwhile, is trying to film a bootleg copy using a camera hidden in his helmet but isn't in a good position. Jonesy sees an opportunity when he hears about this, so he suggests a shuffling of seats with Nikki sitting next to Julie and Darth getting a good view so long as he gets a copy of the DVD and the ability to distribute it.

Nikki then grudgingly moves next to Julie. However, when she sees that Julie likes gummy bears in her popcorn too, she strikes up a conversation. Nikki then proceeds to spend the whole movie talking to her, much to Julie's aggravation. Nikki is having a good time, though, and when the movie ends, Nikki believes that she's found a new friend.

The next day, Jonesy is happily selling bootleg copies of War Star Galaxy Force, but Nikki is annoyed. The reason for her annoyance is that Julie gave her a fake number. To make matters worse, she sees Julie busy working at Wonder Taco despite the fact that Darth said Julie was visiting her grandmother. Nikki drags Jonesy off to spy on them, and from that vantage point Jonesy sees something that shocks him: Darth has enlisted Jonesy's little brother Robbie to help sell bootleg movies. Jonesy storms over to demand an explanation just as Ron arrives and arrests all three of them for pirating movies.

In the jail cell, Jonesy learns that Julie didn't like spending time with Nikki. However, fortunately for Jonesy, his girlfriend has given up the DVDs and come to get him out. Darth, meanwhile, cracks under pressure from Ron and reveals where the movies are, while an unimpressed Robbie just wants to know if he can be let out yet. When Nikki and Jonesy get back to the Big Squeeze, they find that a war of lemons has started between several girls that mirrors a scene from the movie. After the war is over, Nikki tells him that she did something nice for him: she saved a DVD so that he could use it himself.

Sub-Plot One: Nine Angry Girls[]

After hearing about Jen's luck with a Greeter God, Caitlin heads over to Albatross & Finch to try and get one herself. She manages to get a guy named Grady to go out with her; unfortunately, Jen hears about this and informs her that she is dating Grady. Tricia then arrives and announces that Grady is her date, as do Kristen and Kirsten. A fight breaks out outside the store–a fight that Grady quickly backs away from before they can figure out that he's actually the one they should be mad at.

After the fight ends, the group gathers in Grind Me, and Tricia comes up with a modest proposal: they'll get revenge on all of the guys in the mall. Her proposal is to get revenge on all the jerks in the mall–a prospect to which all of the girls readily agree. Soon, they set up a list of crimes, and then Tricia leads them into the mall to find people to punish.

The first person they go after is Wyatt, who is busy working at Burger McFlipster's. There, he sings a song that involves women and burgers, and Tricia manufactures offense and then gets him put on a list of targets. After this, the girls talk to a girl named Monica who was stood up the previous night. However, when Jen hears the name of the jerk–Jude, who couldn't dial his phone–she starts to worry about the safety of her friend. She calls Caitlin to warn Jude, but this call is heard by Tricia and the girls, who decide to head down to the Big Squeeze to take care of him.

There, Caitlin shelters Jude inside the Big Squeeze while Tricia pounds on it, demanding to be let in. Caitlin is unwilling to do this, but Jude opens the giant lemon and stands on the counter, where he gives a speech that ends with his apology to Monica for standing her up. This speech touches the girls, and when a jock walks up, Tricia immediately moves to claim him as her own. Caitlin isn't happy about the tone Tricia's using, so Tricia squirts lemon juice at her. Caitlin retaliates, and soon an all-out lemon war breaks out, with girls throwing lemons all over the place. The only one who doesn't participate is Jen, who stands off to the side and thinks about what the women of the mall have done.

Sub-Plot Two: Jude's Hands[]

After Jude's board wax hurts his hands, he tries to come up with a solution to help them. What he settles on is ketchup and mustard to help them heal and hockey gloves, so he won't scratch at them. However, his hand solution leads Jonesy to suggest that he cancel his date. Jude forgets to do so, however, and brings the wrath of the mall females down on his head, with his only protectors being Jen and Caitlin. When the girls come from him, though, he stands up and makes a speech about the importance of gender relations and recycling that concludes with an apology for standing Monica up–an apology that works.

Quotes[]

  • Jen: I guess love is in the air. (She and Caitlin smell something disgusting.) Eww!
    Caitlin: Gross!
    Jude: Actually, that was my chili dog.
    Caitlin: Eww, Jude!
  • Jen: Why were you just batting your eyelashes at Grady?
    Caitlin: Oh, you know him?
    Jen: Uh, yeah! I'm going out with him tonight!
    Caitlin: (gasping) Grady is your Greeter God? We're supposed to go out tomorrow night!
    Tricia: I don't think so, Lemonhead! Grady's mine!
    Caitlin and Jen: What?
    Kirsten: (gasping) I'm with Grady!
    Kristen: Duh! You're with me.
    Kirsten: I mean I'm dating Grady.
    Kristen: So am I! (The Clones squeal excitedly.)
    Caitlin: Um, that's not a good thing.
  • Tricia: (about Grady) I think he needs to be taught a lesson!
    Kristen: I just learned that if you add vinegar to baking soda, it explodes!
    Caitlin: Not a grade five science lesson, Kirsten. Tricia means-
    Tricia: Revenge!

    (The gang laughs.)

Trivia[]

  • Jonesy's scam: Bootleg DVD seller
    Reason it backfired: Ron caught wind of Jonesy, Darth, and Robbie selling pirated copies of the film War Star Galaxy Force and threw all three of them in the mall jail. Ron then confiscated the copies.

Notes[]

  • This episode did not air in the United States because of Jonesy selling bootleg copies of War Star Galaxy Force. In the real world, this breaks federal laws, and it can get a person arrested.
  • The list of crimes that Tricia and the girls come up with are:
    • Making you see a dumb sci-fi movie
    • Forgetting your birthday
    • Buying you a present that he secretly wants himself
    • Standing you up
    • Calling you by his ex's name
    • Rubbernecking
    • Dating your best friend
      • Interestingly, Jonesy has committed the crime of "Making you see a dumb sci-fi movie" in this episode and has rubbernecked numerous times. Jude accidentally committed the crime of standing someone up in this episode as well.
      • Wyatt technically committed one of the listed crimes above, albeit previously in the episode "Insert Name Here", where he mistakenly referred to his then-girlfriend Marlowe as his first ex Serena.
  • Following this episode, Tricia, despite making a cameo in the series finale, does not appear for the rest of the series.

Errors[]

  • Caitlin erroneously refers to Kristen as "Kirsten", though nobody seemed to notice.
  • Caitlin has no right to be disgusted by Darth and Julie making out, as she herself has been guilty of this throughout the course of 6teen with numerous boys.
  • The crime Tricia committed in this episode is conspiracy, which is a plan made by two or more people to do something unlawful. In the real world, this would've gotten Tricia, as well as the other girls involved in her scheme, arrested.

Episode connections[]

  • Jonesy's hemophobia, the irrational fear of blood that was first mentioned in the episode "Waiting to Ex-Sale", was brought up again in this episode.
  • During Tricia and the girls' crime hunt, she mentions that one crime is calling someone by their ex's name, calling back to the episode "Insert Name Here", where Wyatt accidentally calls Marlowe "Serena" and does everything he can to make amends.
  • Caitlin mentions the broken shoes with Jen at a winter dance, possibly referring to the episode "Snow Job."

Cultural references[]

  • The film Jonesy, Darth, Nikki, and Julie watch is War Star Galaxy Force, a parody of the film Star Wars. Darth and Julie also talk in Mandalorian, a language associated with the people of the same name.
    • Despite this, 6teen already has Star Wars as part of its universe, which was evidenced by Darth and Julie's fanhood for the series and some the episodes where this was a plot point.
  • Jen's line, "I have seen the enemy, and it is us." is indirectly lifted from a famous quote in the comic strip Pogo: "We have met the enemy, and he is us."
