Episode Guide

Kylie Smylie is the sixth episode of the fourth season and the eighty-sixth episode of 6teen. It first aired on Teletoon on October 15, 2009, and later on Cartoon Network on May 10, 2010.

Kylie Smylie, a famous pop star, holds an essay contest where the winner gets to spend a day with her. Caitlin wins, so Kylie comes to the mall and hangs out with her. This leads to Jen becoming obsessed with getting Kylie's autograph, Jonesy becoming part of Kylie's security detail, and Kylie falling in love with Wyatt and his songwriting. Meanwhile, Nikki and Jude try to find a way to deal with the Escalator Girls bullying them.

Plot

Main Plot

Caitlin is singing along to a song on the radio when Jen and Nikki arrive. While Jen joins in with the song, Nikki is not enthusiastic at all, as she doesn't enjoy the music. After the song ends, Jen and Caitlin begin discussing Kylie Smylie's essay contest, and Caitlin remarks that she wrote a five-thousand-word essay for it–disturbing Jen, whose essay was only three thousand words. They then realize that the drawing is about to begin, and Jen's phone rings. Unfortunately for Jen, the call from the contest is to inform her that she didn't win. Nikki's phone then rings, and when Nikki answers she is shocked to hear that she lost as well, even though she didn't enter. Caitlin is the next one to get a call, and this one contains good news–she won!

When Kylie Smiley heads to the mall to spend a day with Caitlin, Caitlin begins to fret that she's not ready. Jonesy then arrives and informs his friends of the good news: he's been chosen as part of Kylie's security detail, along with Ron and Kylie's father, former professional wrestler Sergeant Beef. Ron's security cart then pulls up, carrying Kylie, Ron, and Sergeant Beef. Kylie introduces herself to Caitlin, who is glad to see her–as Jen would be, if Jen was capable of speech, as she instead blabbers incoherently. Caitlin tries to do something nice for Jen by asking Kylie to take a picture with her friend, but Sergeant Beef refuses to let this happen and instructs Caitlin to into the cart with Kylie. Unfortunately, this leaves no room for Jonesy, who realizes that as part of his job he'll have to run alongside the security cart all day.

The group sets off, and Nikki comforts Jen over her failure to verbalize a single coherent thought to Kylie. Jen has a solution, however: she'll show up at Kylie's autograph session with a bunch of memorabilia. While Jen comes up with a plan to get to Kylie as a fan, Kylie is busy being pursued by her fans. When Jonesy sees that the fans are gaining, he signals for the cart to go on ahead, and he lets the cart leave him behind so that he can delay the fans.

The riders don't know where they're going, but Kylie does know that she's feeling hungry. She asks Caitlin for a meal suggestion, and Caitlin suggests Burger McFlipster's. Taking Caitlin's advice, they head over to the burger joint, where Wyatt is working the grill. Wyatt doesn't recognize Kylie at all, even though he's given a bunch of hints and even Wayne recognizes her, but when he learns that she's the singer of "Mister Yesterday," he insults the song before he can stop himself. He apologizes by giving Kylie a burger for free, and she invites him to the autograph signing–which Caitlin encourages him to come to. As Caitlin leaves, Wayne notes that for some reason Kylie likes Wyatt, a reaction which even Wyatt doesn't understand.

The signing takes place at Spin This. There is a long line out the door, and in order to ensure that nobody dangerous gets too close to Kylie, Sergeant Beef sends Jonesy out with instructions to get rid of anybody who has more than five items. Naturally, Jen fits this description, and Wyatt walks up as Jonesy goes off to do his duty. Jonesy's conversation with Jen doesn't go well, as Jen ends up being unable to choose, causing a scene, and being dragged out of the line. However, while Jonesy and Sergeant Beef are busy with Jen, Wyatt gets dragged aside by Serena when Serena realizes that Kylie finds Wyatt desirable. Serena informs Wyatt that she's broken up with Chad and wants to get back together with him. Caitlin and Kylie witness this, and Kylie is disappointed, because she wanted to date Wyatt. Caitlin is relieved, however, because Wyatt dating Kylie would result in Sergeant Beef doing bad things to Wyatt. Caitlin's relief is short-lived, though, because Wyatt rejects Serena due to the fact that he's gotten over her, and then informs Caitlin and Kylie about it. When Kylie sees this, she decides to make her move and gives Wyatt her private number.

After the autograph signing, the entourage moves to Taj Mahome Video for another promotional event. Before they leave, Caitlin informs Jonesy about Kylie's crush on Wyatt, and gets Jonesy to inform Wyatt of the problem that he'll have if he dates Kylie. Unfortunately, the phrase Jonesy chooses to use to tell Wyatt about this in a text message is that "Kylie's hot but Beef is dangerous." Wyatt deciphers this as a dig at his job as a burger flipper and disregards the message.

At Taj Mahome, Kylie is scheduled to do a promo with the Taj Mahome dancers. However, there's been a security breach, as it turns out that Jen has snuck in to try and get a picture with Kylie again. The distraction provides cover for Kylie to sneak out, though, and soon she's singing with Wyatt in the freezer at Burger McFlipster's. After singing a song, though, Kylie realizes that she's going to be late for the show, and heads out into the mall, where she runs into Jen. Upon being directed to the stage, Kylie does Jen a favor and takes a picture with her–just as Sergeant Beef, Ron, and Caitlin show up. Sergeant Beef admits he may have been wrong about Jen, and the group rides to the stage for Kylie's show.

At Kylie's show, Kylie performs "Mister Yesterday" to the delight of the gathered crowd. However, she then stops the show and invites up to the stage her new friend Wyatt. There, they start singing a song that Wyatt has written, but the crowd does not enjoy it and starts throwing produce at him. This causes Sergeant Beef to leap onto the stage and pin Wyatt to the ground in rage, ending the song and any chance Kylie might have had of dating Wyatt without her father finding out.

Sub-Plot: Jude and the Escalator Girls

Jude is skating down the escalators, but when he reaches the bottom his underwear is grabbed by the Escalator Girls. Naturally, Jude wants to be released, but his captors are unwilling to do as requested. What they are willing to do, however, is give him a new hat by hiking his underwear up so far that it reaches over his head and covers his eyes.

The next time that Jude goes down the escalators and gets captured, he's careful to inform them that he doesn't want a new hat. Unfortunately, this doesn't stop his captors from tormenting him, as they give him a new outfit instead by pantsing him, tying his shirt so that it bares his midriff, and putting a rose between his teeth before sending him rolling off on his skateboard. He ends up rolling over to Jen and Nikki, who are on their way to the autograph signing, and is encouraged by Nikki to tell off the Escalator Girls the next time that they try to bully him. Unfortunately, this turns out to be poor advice, as his doing this leads to him getting trussed up like a turkey before being set rolling again.

When Nikki sees what the Escalator Girls have done to her friend, she decides to set them straight. The Escalator Girls don't take kindly to her haranguing, though, and their response is to hurl Nikki into a trash can. This only serves to infuriate Nikki, and Nikki begins plotting revenge on them, eventually settling on a plan that involves Jude, a bungee cord, wedgies, and Ron's powers of Mall Security. She sends Jude down the escalator with a bungee cord attached to him that is just long enough that the Escalator Girls try to grab him. When they make this attempt, Jude is pulled back in the other direction before they can get him, but this distracts them enough that Nikki is able to come up behind the Escalator Girls and give them all atomic wedgies. Upon seeing this, Ron cites the Escalator Girls for Indecent Exposure of Underthings and expels the Escalator Girls from the mall forever.

Trivia

• Jonesy's job: Kylie Smylie's bodyguard.
  Reason for firing: He saw Sergeant Beef attacking Wyatt and came to his rescue. Jonesy ended up getting hurt himself.

Notes

• This is Serena's first and only appearance in Season 4. Additionally, this is also her final speaking role.

Errors

• Several audio clips overlap each other while Kylie thanks Caitlin for introducing her to Wyatt.
• Before Kylie's concert, she never takes Wyatt's guitar, but during her concert, it's there for him. What Wyatt didn't know was that he was going to be in a duet with Kylie and she didn't tell anyone else about it either.

Episode connections

• Caitlin and Jen go crazy over Kylie Smylie, similarly to how they went crazy over DawgToy in the episode "The Girls in the Band."
• The Escalator Girls, who first appeared in the episode Dirty Work, reappear in this episode. In their first episode, they bullied Jen and Stanley.
• Ron punishes the Escalator Girls with "Indecent Exposure of Underthings" and places them under an indefinite ban from the mall. This calls back to the episode "Oops, I Dialed It Again", where he used this law in his books to get Wyatt banned from the mall permanently.

Cultural references

• Sergeant Beef is a reference to the character of the same name from the Sergeant Beef series by author Leo Bruce.
