Summary
As Betty sits in a bathroom stall in her high school, a brunette, a blonde, and a redhead enter the bathroom. The trio discuss the new girl and all her faults. The redhead does an impression of Betty and then begins to pamper herself in the mirror. Betty focuses on the girl through a crack in the stall, and the redhead appears to break out with monstrous boils and lesions. The blonde and the brunette scream and run out of the bathroom as the redhead just looks on in shock. As the redhead leaves the bathroom, the disfigurations are gone. Betty leaves the stall and understands that she caused that to happen.
Betty and her close friend, Ren, are in the cafeteria. Ren is tripped by a jock and has his food spilled all over him. Betty is rather angry and embarrassed, but Ren manages to block it out by thinking of what life is like at home for them, comparing it to The Breakfast Club, which puts a rare smile on Betty's face.
Notes
- Before being affected by the temporary lesions, the redhead girl mentions that Miss Pricher thinks that the Homecoming theme is genius, but that she (the redhead) thinks it and Pricher are lame. Miss Pricher is apparently a teacher at the school.
