It was Ryder's first day back since the Full Moon Jam and it wasn't a pleasure experience as soon as he walked in with his fellow students whispering and snickering what seemed to be aimed at him. It bothered him a little but he was on a mission. He was looking for Sinjin to try to convince Mr. Juilen, their teacher that he had no control over the performance in hopes of not getting an F in the Full Moon Jam assignment. He saw him at his locker and went up to him.

Ryder said, "Hey Sinjin, You got a second?" Sinjin worried because he was afraid Ryder would beat him up said, "Hey, Ryder did you have a good weekend?" Ryder said, "Not so much but I'm sure you already know that. Why was my mike not working?" Sinjin blared out, "It was Tori's idea, please don't hurt me," Ryder said, "Don't worry I'm not going to hurt," Sinjin said, "You're not," Ryder said, "No, however, I would like to tell Julien about this,"  Sinjin said, "I would but..." Ryder interrupted and said, "Well you're going to anyway," and Ryder fireman carried Sinjin over his left shoulder and carried him to Julien's classroom in front of the school with some of the group Beck, Jade, and Andre watching. 

Tori walked into the school and said, "What going on?" Andre said, "Looks like Ryder carried Sinjin somewhere," Tori said, "I'm guessing to Julien's class, Where's Robbie?" Beck said, "He should be here soon," She waited for Robbie to show up to confront Ryder as Ryder went to Julien's class with Sinjin in tow.    

Mr. Julien was setting up for class when Ryder came in with Sinjin in two and Julien wondered why and said, "Why are you carrying Sinjin into my class?" Ryder said, "Because I wanted to prove that I was sabotaged by Tori and her stupid friends and Sinjin admitted he did for Tori," Ryder dropped Sinjin and his bookbag, opened his bookbag, and took out the mic he "used" in the Full Moon Out he returned just now and just leaving the school straight after Beggin On Your Knees performance and gave the mike to Julien. 

Ryder said, "Sinjin muted this mike to make sure I wasn't able to sing in the Full Moon Jam," Julien looked at the mike and said, "Is this true, Sinjin?" Sinjin nervously said, "Yes, it's true," Julien said, "Why?" Sinjin said, "Because Tori and her friends wanted to get back at Ryder for his treatment of girls," Julien said, "What about his treatment of girls?" Sinjin said, "He dates them, partners them for a class project, and then dumps them and doesn't contact them after he has his A," 

Julien turned to Ryder and said, "I would ask you if this is true but I heard rumors and Christine did tell me what you did to her. Why would you do that? You're a talented guy, you don't need to do this and yet you do it?"   

Sinjin said, "Can I leave now? I got to go class?" As soon as he said that Andre, Tori, and Robbie who were being dragged into class by Tori by the wrist, she let goes after getting to class and Tori said, "No, do not give him a better grade after what he did to the girls in the school," 

Julien said, "One, it was based on performance not how much of a dirtbag he is," Ryder said, "Seriously? I'm right here," Julien turned to Ryder and said, "Yeah, I know. Don't use people," Then turned to Tori and said, "and two, you did tell me that you were doing a duet with Ryder and you had his mike muted and didn't perform the duet you said you would, I should fail both of you," Sinjin said, "Seriously can I leave now?" Julien said, "GO!" and Sinjin left in a hurry.  Tori said, "Did he pee his pants?" Andre said, "Possibly," 

Ryder said, "Is there any can not fail the assignment? I need a passing grade to graduate soon," Julien said, "I might have something for not just you but for Tori as well," Tori said, "Why me? It's not my fault that he's a dirtbag," Ryder said, "Again, I'm right here," Andre said, "Don't use people next time," Julien said, "I already said that Andre," Andre said, "OK then," Ryder said, "Tori, how come you didn't carry Robbie into the class like I did to Sinjin," 

Robbie said, "Don't be ridiculous Ryder, Besides Tori can't lift me,". This upset Tori and she successfully lifted Robbie over her left shoulder, Robbie said, "Hey, Put me down," which she did and Robbie hit the floor and said, "Thank You," Andre said, "Should not have said that, Robbie," Robbie said, "I realize that," Julien said, "OK Guys class is about the start, take your seats and I'll tell you guys your assignment towards the end of class," The rest of the class beginning to enter the classroom. Robbie said, "Can I go the bathroom first?" Julien said, "GO!" and Robbie left the classroom to go to the bathroom and came back about 5 minutes later. 

About 40-50 minutes later, Julien said, "OK, I've heard that Ryder has a bad reputation especially with the ladies while I don't condone his actions however I don't condone Tori's actions of telling me that she was a duet with Ryder but ended up doing a solo and having Sinjin put Ryder's mike on mute. If you are going to do a duet then do a duet," Tori said, "What was I supposed to do?" Julien said, "You could have told me, you didn't want to do the duet with Ryder, explain why, and I would have let you do a solo and had Ryder also do a solo as well,"

Ryder said, "That would have been unfair," Tori annoyed said, "You're one of the last people to complain about something being unfair," 

Julien said, "Anyway I have decided that Tori and Ryder perform to duet in front of the class on Wednesday," 

Both Ryder and Tori were shocked that they were partnered again. Ryder said, "Can't I just sing a solo?" Tori replied, "So now you want to sing a solo,"  

Julien said, "I made up my mind, either do the duet together or you both failed the Full Moon Jam assignment,"    

Tori said, "Why should I suffer because of this dirtbag?" Julien said, "I want to let it known to everyone if you agreed to duet you must honor for commitment like if you agreed to do a movie/TV show/album. Again Tori, I would let you back out if you asked but since you didn't, you're stuck with Ryder for another project,"

Ryder said, "Can I get more than two days?" Tori said, "Can we do it tomorrow so I can be done with this douchebag sooner?" Ryder said, "Really?" 

Julien said, "Only if it's OK with Ryder," Ryder thought about it as he originally wanted more time however, he started thinking that the sooner the assignment was done the sooner his reputation would improve though he did say, "That's too soon,"

Tori replied, "I rehearsed Beggin the Knees only hours  before I performed it, So I can do it in hours, we can perform the duet in a day,"

Ryder said, "Wait a minute, Didn't we rehearse that day as well?" Tori said, "We did briefly, it was in between the rehearses of the dancers aka your other exes, and the band," Andre said, "I'm still amazed we had the performance we did with the little practice we had," 

Julien said, "OK that settles it, Tori and Ryder will do a duet tomorrow at class," The bell rings and Julien said, "Class dismissed," and the class left the classroom Ryder tried to convince Julien to change the assignment or extended it, he refused. Ryder asked Tori "Should we meet after school to pick a song and rehearse?" Tori said, "On one condition," Ryder said, "What is it?" Tori answered, "If Andre can join us," Andre said, "Wait what?" Tori said, "I'm not rehearsing myself with Ryder," Robbie said, "I can join you guys," Ryder said, "Yes, let's have Robbie join," While he repeatedly pounded his right-fisted hand on his left hand and Robbie said, "Better yet have Andre do it," and ran away. 

Andre said, "Do I have to?" Tori said, "PLEASE!!!!" while grabbing his arm and Andre later said, "OK I'll do it," and Tori hugged Andre and Ryder said, "Can I have a hug as well?" Tori left disgusted and Andre told Ryder, "You blew it, man, You blew it. Tori is one of the best people I know," and walked out of the classroom and Ryder followed suit.
