When Jenny rear-ends the car of a fellow parent at the school drop-off, she expect there'll be hell to pay. Instead Jenny is pleasantly surprised to discover the driver is handsome, confident, manly, and would like her number - not for insurance purposes. Later at school, Benjamin has a huffy encounter with Simmo who now has his sights set on making Benjamin's school life a living misery.

Benjamin struggles with a crippling addiction to spying on Klaus pumping iron across the road, and is riddled with anxiety over what it means. So when Candy and Wayne announce over lunch that they’re taking everyone camping, Benjamin - to everyone’s horror - is a bundle of enthusiasm, seeing this as an opportunity to escape temptation. Jenny isn’t so keen, but after Pete unceremoniously dumps her in the school carpark, she can’t wait to leave town either.

With the middle school dance around the corner, Benjamin is pumped. He and Melissa have been workshopping matching outfits for years and finally have the chance to bring their vision to life. Except for one hitch: Melissa’s already got a date. Things aren’t going great for Jenny either. After seeing Pete out at the shops, seemingly already happy with another woman, Jenny decides to put her body out on the market and take up internet dating.

Benjamin battles with his feelings towards Klaus after a drama exercise with his handsome nemesis leaves him all tense in all the wrong places. Meanwhile, Jenny battles with her own feelings after Pete calls her out of the blue to ask her out to dinner.

Aunty Maisy and Daisy crash Jenny's kitchen with a problem: Aunty Maisy's son has come out as gay and it's the end of her world. After Benjamin overhears her part of their exchange, he convinces himself that Jenny is homophobic. Resentful, he throws himself into the task of winning the upcoming talent quest while blocking Jenny out, deciding now is not the time to come out and that it mightn't ever be.
