During a particularly harrowing sex ed module, Melissa and Benjamin excitedly scheme to get into a Year 12 party where there'll be booze and - more importantly for Melissa - boys. Despite his reservations, Benjamin tries to sweet-talk Jenny and Danny into letting him go, but encounters a Jenny-shaped roadblock in his way, insisting Benjamin is still too young for Aussie teen parties where drinking and fingering is abundant.

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.
