It was a chilling Friday afternoon, the girls were getting out of class. They had two things going on for the weekend. First, they had to do an assignment on stars, second, they're going to spend the weekend at the LADUWS contestants boarding mansion.
On their way there, Nadine was wondering if the boys apologized to Stanley for constantly bugging them. They did and to make up for his annoying behavior, he was going to include their music video version of "Anywhere for You" on the next "Stanley Spadowski's Clubhouse" episode where they talk about boy bands.

Later, our heroes were arriving in front of a mansion that looks like something off of "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air." They parked their cycles in the garage and carried twelve gift bags. Due to Jessie and Faith's natural strength, they carried two in each of their arms. As they got in the kitchen, they saw a completely lavish living room, "This is nothing compared to your beach house," explained Dorothy, "nor Hart Castle."
"Zarina thought it would be a good idea to let us throw a slumber party," explained Nick.
On the couches and sofa, they met the contestants of "Let's All Dance Until We're Sick." One of them was a surfer dude with brown hair dyed blue-green and blue-green clothes, "This is Emmanuel, the surfer," said Howie D, "Call me E-Wave," the surfer replied. "It's, like, totally awesome to meet you, girls."
An Israeli-American boy with flamboyant red apparel came in.
"Messiah, the Broadway star" explained Kevin.
Messiah didn't wave back. He thought it was fun to just do a Broadway pose instead, much to the annoyance of E-Wave and Elliana., "Weren't you the leading role in 'Andrew', Matthias, and the broadway version of 'Wet Side Story'?" asked Ginger. "I have a pen pal in New York City who's seen you perform."
"I was," Messiah answered angrily, "until my growth spurt. After that, I've been in commercials for Mr. Greganmeyer's Laundry Soap."
"I have that on video while I was recording the "Maho Mushi Butterfly Bang" marathon," Faith explained. "The way you landed in that cake during your tap dance routine, it was hilarious. Plus, I read in the paper that they use a real cake to make it convincing."
As everyone laughed, Messiah got annoyed by what Faith said about him, "Peace, dear brothers and sisters," greeted An African-American boy with green hippie clothes.
"That's Matteo," Kevin explained, "the dreamer."
"Love's the way," replied Matteo as he made peace signs with his signs. "It is such an honor to meet a few far out backup dancers."
"Right on", Ginger replied with a peace sign.
A fabulous blonde girl in purple came up and was repulsed by Dorothy's natural beauty., "Elliana, the swimsuit model," Howie D explained. "She can be a bit jealous of others who are prettier than her."
"Who ya calling jealous, Howie D?" Elliana growled in a New Jersey accent. "You better bring me flowers next time you come here."
Howie D got annoyed by what Elliana said.
A red-haired girl in pink started going around and shaking the girl's hands non-stop., "That's Lucille, the party girl," explained Nick. "She really knows how to make friends."
"I just LOVE making new friends," smiled Lucille. "I have my own friends back in Angel Grove, California, but here in Florida, it's like an extended party!"
"I love parties, too," Dorothy commented.
"I love your British accent, Dorothy." Lucille commented back. "I can tell the difference between a British and an Aussie. I have cousins out in Australia whom I write to once a month."
The Backstreet Boys and the Griff Gals started giving out gift baskets to welcome our heroes. All twelve of them had LADUWS t-shirts, Backstreet Boy pins, girl scout cookies, and blue hackey sacks with a star on it. Everyone liked their gift bags, except for Elliana and Messiah, for they prefered expensive ones and not ones collected by backup dancers and boy band legends.
"Never mind, then," whispered Lucille. "I think your gift baskets are lovely. I especially like the peanut butter girl scout cookies."
In the corner, Jessie could see a Puerto-Rican American girl with short brown hair dyed pink, a blue beanie, and tough girl apparel leaning against the wall, "That's just Kamila," A.J. explained, "the tough girl. Out of all the judges, I'm the only one she can understand."
Both A.J. and Jessie brought up her gift basket, but Kamila turned her head, "Come on, Kamila," said A.J. "You need to bond with the others during your stay."
"I don't bond with anyone," explained Kamila. "Especially know runts like you and your friends."
Before Jessie had a chance to punch her, A.J. stopped her, because there might be cameras hidden somewhere and she could get in big trouble. Annoyed, Kamila decided to go for a spin. She went to the garage, rigged a blue motorcycle for LADUWS, opened a garage thanks to little clapping power, jumped a skateboard ramp and through the gate.
Little did she know was that A.J. and Jessie saw the whole thing and decided to warn the others.

In the living rooms, the Backstreet Boys were introducing the other Griff Gals to the pairs. They met a caucasian blonde boy and an African-American girl wearing posh white apparel named Jax and Millie, who were the Ice Dancers; a Chinese-American girl and a Latino boy in orange named Gabrielle and Jorge, who were the Cruise Performers; a pair of biracially African-American twin siblings named Kaia and Kaden,; a pair of Japanese-American rockers with black apparel named Madilyn and Emilio; a pair of movie stars in yellow named Paislee and Remington; and a pair of Arabic foreigners named Amira and Josue.
As soon as A.J. and Jessie came in with the urgent news, everyone was shocked. They didn't want to get in trouble with Cristian nor Big G., "Listen here" Nick said to the contestants. "We're going to go find Kamila, everyone stays here until we get back."
As soon as they entered the garage, they changed into their super forms.
Backstreet's Back Alright!
Our heroes rode off on their Hover Cycles and started looking for The Tough Girl.

Meanwhile, Kamila was riding off to Ocala National Forest, on the stolen motorcycle. *Nobody bonds with Kamila Rordriquez*, she thought to herself.
Kamila started to think back to her childhood, where she grew up in a dangerous neighborhood in Sacramento. She was bullied and picked on by all the other kids for her Spanish accent, her poor family, and her natural dancing skills. She knew that being on "Let's All Dance Until We're Sick" would cure her scars of pain.
Unbeknownst to her, Illusioner could sense her emotions miles away and knew how she felt about being bullied as a kid. Ordnance and Ninja Man felt the same way too. "We should talk to her as ourselves," Illusioner suggested. "That way she can understand us better."
Just then, they started sensing danger, "Kamila is going to have to wait," replied Griffin Girl. "There's danger up ahead."

Deep in the Ocala National Forest, Dr. Zora was summoning her robots to cut down the trees, hoping to get a head start on destroying planet oxygen. A camping troop watched in horror as she continued to chop down the tree, "Lady," shouted the counselor, "the park is public property! If you don't stop now I'm calling the park rangers!"
"Then you'll be my experiments for my vapor gun!" shouted Dr. Zora.
But as just as she was about to shoot them, Ordnance shot the gun out of her hand. "What a way to ruin a nature walk," he said.
The campers were excited to see the Cyber Crusaders in person, "Greetings, Cyber Crusaders," Dr. Zora said. "Care to sample my Laserchain 5000? It can cut chain saws in one second."
Kamila was grossed out by Dr. Zora's behavior towards nature. "What's wrong with you?" she growled. "This is lame."
The Cyber Crusaders were surprised that Kamila was standing up to Dr. Zora. Ordnance wanted to help, but Power Lord grabbed him.
Kamila told Dr. Zora that she had dealt with bullies from the past and remembered what she learned from her camping trips, which was a little bird calling. Kamila did a robin call, a woodpecker call, and a sparrow call. One by one, the birds started attacking the birds.
As the birds were busy distracting Dr. Zora, Ninja Man destroyed the Laserchain 5000 by cutting it in two, and Power Lord tossed the parts into the lake, hoping that no one would ever use it again. After one more sparrow peck, Dr. Zora teleported back to the Zallegro Galaxy.
After they hid in a part of the forest to change back to their regular selves, Faith and Dorothy found a nest with a single egg in it. Out of the egg came a tiny and very adorable bird. The bird started to think that Faith was its mommy and snuggled her. Since Faith was old enough to have a pet, she decided to keep the bird, "We'll find a birdcage for the little creature tomorrow at the flea market." B-Rok said.
From a distance, Kamila came in and looked at the baby bird. She had always been delighted by cute little animals, even the ones she could find on the streets. After she gave the bird back to Faith, A.J. told her that even though that she'd been bullied when she was a nina, running away wouldn't solve anything, "We all care about you," said A.J., "especially Lucille."
"You mean my goodie-two-shoes roommate?" asked Kamila in confusion.
"Yes," A.J. answered. "She even calls you her best reality show friend."
Hearing these words, Kamila smiled.

Later that night at the LADUWS beach house, Gabrielle and Jorge were putting up the telescope for them to have a little astronomy time. As soon our heroes arrived home, the contestants welcomed Kamila home.
"I'm sorry that I ran away" Kamila replied. "I just didn't want to be bullied again."
Lucille jumped for joy because Kamila was back and staying for the competition.
"We just set up the telescope Cristian Brand sent us," explained Gabrielle. "He figures we could use astronomy for a little bonding time."
Kamila was glad because she loved studying stars back in California. the Griff Girls were glad too because they've got an astronomy assignment.

During the weekend, the Backstreet Boys took them to a local flea market where Faith got her bird equipment and bird care books, the Orlando Science Center, to learn about stars, and to Kennedy Center to see how astronauts get ready for space.

On Monday, the girls were in Ms. Chirohiro's science class. As they were doing their open-study, Ms. Chirohiro was going on the weekend project of doing astronomy with the contestants on LADUWS, and for a bonus, they did a little fact about the Nighbeaked flapper, which was the same bird that hatched from the egg. "That's brilliant," she said, "learning the wonders of the stars. For that, I'm giving you all A's."
The girls were happy, because they got A's and bonded with the contestants from season one of "Let's All Dance Until We're Sick."
"What do you say, girls?" asked Dorothy. "Chocolate cookies with chocolate milk for dessert at lunch?"
"Chocolate cookies with chocolate milk for dessert at lunch," answered her friends.
The End.
