Teen sensation Katelyn Hackett was walking out of a coffee shop known as Leavitt's Latte. She adjusted her sunglasses when she saw a limousine waiting to pick her up. She planned on taking the bus home, but the chauffeur knocked her out with a sleep gun. The chauffeur grabbed her and drove off, leaving behind a bunch of feathers. Little did the chauffeur know was that the barista saw the whole thing and collected the feathers for evidence.

Back at their underground lair, the Klue Queens were teaching Kirby about the history of Broadway musicals while Tania was checking her emails. "I got an email from Hollywood director Azalea Faulkner," she said.
"*The* Azalea Faulkner?" asked Kaylin. "The director of the 'Boogie Raise' quadrilogy? I've seen all the movies."
"She said she wants us to come to Hollywood," Tania replied. "Rome and board are free. She said it's urgent."
"She did say it's urgent," Leah said as she thought for a moment. "Okay."

The next day, the girls arrived in Hollywood from their Warp Stars. Swinger was amazed that there were dozens of lights. Kaylin also brought Little Miss Starlight with her. Her uncle was having a friend over who was highly allergic to cats, and Leelanee and Fayth were attending a friendly scout's birthday party. Kaylin placed on her new star shades and they took off.
By the front of Charm Belief Studios, a middle-aged woman was walking around frantically. "Hello?" asked Rylie. "Mrs. Faulkner?"
"Don't touch me!" Azalea shouted as she saw the Klue Queens. "Sorry. I panic when one of my stars go missing."
"What?" Tania asked. "A leading star is missing?"
"Yes. Katelyn Hackett," answered Azalea, "the star of our new movie, 'Private Aya, Teen Detective'. I'm making a remake of the 1970s movie of the same name. It's amazing what earning tons of money from the 'Boogie Raise' franchise could do."
"Where was she last seen?" asked Leah.
"By her favorite coffee shop, Leavitt's Latte," answered Azalea. "The premiere is tomorrow, and If I don't find her on time, everything will be ruined."
When Kaylin took off her shades, they noticed something very strange. She looked exactly like Katelyn. That was when Kaylin got an idea and said, "Maybe I could pose as a fake until we rescue her."
"That's a great idea," replied Leah, "though maybe someone should look after you."
"I think I know someone," replied Azalea. "He works in the prop room. Follow me."
In the prop room, they saw a magician boy practicing a card trick. "Mr. Nicolai," a woman called to the prop boy, "we have guests."
"My name's Gregory Nicolai," said the magician as he placed away from the cards. "But everyone calls me the Great Gregory." From his sleeve, he pulled out a bunch of daisies.
"You're Katelyn Hackett's boyfriend," recalled Estrella. "I love your Facetube channel Nicolaitimemagic."
"Ever since Katey Kake got kidnapped last night," explained Gregory, "I began to keep worrying about what's going to happen. I vow to find my Katey Kake before the premiere."
"Kakey Kake," recalled Rylie. "That sounds like Tastykake."
"I know," Gregory replied. "She craves for them."
"We need you to do a favor," Azalea said. "Could you look after our friend Kaylin as we investigate the real Katelyn's kidnapping?"
"You're the Kirby Klue Queens, aren't you?" recalled Gregory. "I have a pen pal at Lititz Heights High. They told me of your little mysteries, and if you could help them, then I can help you."

After a little while, they made Kaylin into a fake Katelyn Hackett for the interview on Kelly Philbin. Leah, Rylie, and Kirby decided to check out Leavitt's Latte while Kaylin went to the interview. Before they left, they saw Kirby playing around with a snow machine.
"That's a snow machine," Tania cautioned. "Fake snow comes out."
Kirby bounced up and down from the snow until he landed on a mini-plane used for flying effects. Rylie and Leah got him down and took off for Leavitt's Latte.

At the costume department, Paige, Estrella, Swinger, and Tania were going around when they saw an elderly African American with a feather boa lady training a lady in her mid-20s about acting like a princess. Tania quickly recognized her from the original movie in the 1970s.
"Are you Barbara Ellis," asked Estrella, "the famous movie star and the original Private Aya?"
"I was. Now I'm Babs Ellis, acting coach and costume designer for Charm Belief Studios," Babs said as she turned to see her student standing while slouching. "Sandra, you must stand straight when balancing a book on your head."
"Okay, mother," Sandra replied.
Sandra had poofy black hair and wore '70s clothing. "Forgive Mama," she said. "She can be very strict when it comes to acting."
Paige noticed that on the desk, there was a picture of Gregory with a black-ink autograph from him and red hearts around him. She had a feeling that Sandra might have a huge crush on him.

Meanwhile, Leah, Rylie, and Kirby arrived at Leavitt's Latte to have the signature Leavitt Latte. "Wouldn't we go to the after-party with all the cool foods?" asked Rylie.
"This is more simple," answered Leah.
In the coffee shop, Leah bought Kirby a giant cookie to hold him until they were done. The barista who saw Katelyn's kidnapping told them that the limo left behind feathers. From her feather-examine badge, Leah could tell that they were duck feathers. "Why would a limo driver have duck feathers?" she asked.
Meanwhile on the set of "The Kelly Philbin Show," Kaylin came in wearing a beautiful pink dress with small white featuring. "Look at me, Little Miss Starlight," Kaylin said to her pet cat. "It's like being a princess."

Later, they were being interviewed by Kelly Philbin while Kaylin petted Little Miss Starlight. "May I ask one more thing?" asked Kelly. "What are you doing impersonating Katelyn, Kaylin Hester?"
Kaylin was horrified because they found out about her charade. "How did you know it was me?" she asked.
"We all know that the REAL Katelyn Hackett is highly allergic to cats," Kelly replied. "She owns a dog named Creamfilled."
"Oops," said Gregory. "I forgot to mention that part."
"It's okay," assured Kelly. "It's common to forget things when panicking."
Little Miss Starlight got a little nervous but smelled a little girl's perfume from a distance. She followed it to a broom closet when it started to sneeze. With a little bobby pin power, Kaylin learned from Tania, out came the real Katelyn Hackett.
"Katey Kake!" shouted Gregory as he held Katelyn. "Are you okay?"
Katelyn woke up to see Kaylin wearing the dress Babs made for her. "Have they hired a new stunt double?" she asked. "Or are you my understudy?"
"Sort of both," Kaylin said as Little Miss Starlight came up to her. "Azalea asked me to fill in your shoes while being interviewed by Kelly Philbin, and you would not believe the dress."
Katelyn was relieved because she never liked the dress that Babs made for her for the interview, because she never liked the dress due to it looking like blueprints for a plan. Kaylin was surprised. By the girl's dressing room, she saw that the pink dress had blueprints with Katelyn leaving the cafe, going in a limo, and locking her in the janitor's closet by Kelly Philbin's show.
"Guys," Kaylin said, "Babs kidnapped Katelyn."
"Really?" replied Kaylin. "No wonder her acting training is so hard."

At Charm Belief Studios, Kaylin, Gregory, Katelyn, and Little Miss Starlight were rushing off to find Babs. Before they had a chance to go inside, numerous Valentine's hankies came out and trapped them.
"The Valentine hankie trick," Gregory replied, "the easiest trick in the book."
"You shouldn't leave your magic journal behind," Sandra replied.
Babs came up and smiled evilly. "You finally know of my kidnapping plot," she replied. "You're not gonna tell the press about my schemes."
Little did they know was that Paige, Tania, Estrella, and Swinger saw the whole thing. They needed to free their friends. In the garage they hiding in, Paige saw a station wagon with 1970s apparel and the original movie logo.
"That's the Aya Wagon," recalled Paige, "the car that was used in the original film to stop the culprit. It may be old, but we have to stop Babs and Sandra."
Rylie, Leah, and Kirby saw their friends being held hostage by Babs and Sandra and needed to do something. The Aya Wagon barged out of the garage and drove all around Babs, Sandra, and their friends. Paige and Tania quickly freed the others. Kaylin spotted Kirby and got an idea. "Kirby," she shouted as she tossed the Valentine hankies, "suck it up!"
In a bite, Kirby turned into Cupid Kirby and shot arrows at Babs and Sandra, which made them fall in love with their reflections.

A few hours later, the police arrive and cuffed Babs and Sandra for kidnapping Katelyn. Azalea arrived to see if Katelyn was okay, and she was. Paige sprinkled them with some mudwater and made them snap out of their narcissistic behavior. They began to wonder why a costume designer kidnapped the new Private Aya.
"Because of the change of the movie," explained Babs, "I waited a very long time for a sequel to come, hoping they show an all-grown-up Aya. Unfortunately, it took longer than expected. When the studio told me that, they replaced me with that youngster, Katelyn Hackett."
"What about Sandra?" asked Estrella. "Every culprit needs an accomplice."
"I wanted revenge after Gregory refused to date me," Sandra explained. "How was I suppose to know he doesn't like girls that are older than him?"
"It makes sense now," Leah replied. "Our first clue was the duck feathers left at the scene of the crime had a boa made from duck feathers. Then our second clue was an autograph picture. The autograph he wrote had black ink while the hearts had red ink, hinting that he didn't draw those hearts. Then there was the sign that said 'Do Not Enter' by the janitor's closet, a least likely place to hide something. And finally the blueprints to kidnap Katelyn were on the dress Kaylin wore. People should learn to keep control of their hobbies."
Kirby found a garden hose by the flower bed when he accidentally activated it, making Babs and Sandra wet. "My hair!" shouted Sandra. "You ruined my perfectly good hair!"
"Now that's what I call a hair job," Kaylin said.
When they turned around, they saw Kirby mimicking an excerpt of "Singing in the Rain" while splashing in puddles. Everyone laughed.

Two days later, they were watching the premiere of "Private Aya" on the Nicolaitimemagic Facetube channel. After Katelyn did a pose with her pet Collie Creamfilled, she did a kiss with Gregory.
"Now that's a Hollywood kiss," smiled Paige as everyone smiled, except for Kaylin.
Kaylin stared and looked at her double kissing her false boyfriend, then she thought about her real love, Nathaniel Harmon. She remembered that very day they met. It was the last day of summer vacation, and he was posing as a fake butler for his father, just so they could test the Klue Queens' detective skills. Tania started to notice that something was wrong with her. "Still not over Nathaniel?" she asked.
"I'm afraid not," Kaylin replied. "Pretending to date Greg was fun, but he's nothing compared to Nathaniel. He's always testing to see if we use our instincts and would do anything to cheer someone up." Then she started to smile. "But I'm glad they gave us new dresses," she continued as she looked at her pet cat, who had the same dress on. "The new costume designer even made one for you, Little Miss Starlight."
Little Miss Starlight went to Kirby's spare bed and fell asleep.
The End.
