Zeke was tutoring his sister, Talia, for her upcoming history test. She wasn't failing any of her classes, she was almost getting straight A's -- except for History. Talia had a B+, but it wasn't good enough for Zeke. He cares for his younger sister and knows she'll be able to pass the exam only if she gets help.

"So, in conclusion, the War of 1812 -" Zeke said but nearly had a heart attack when Talia shrieked and jumped up from her seat.

"The crazy ten-minute sale!" she screeched. She managed to shake the table a bit and spilled the tea she made for them, making it soak the flashcards.

"My flashcards!"

Feeling bad, Talia grabbed a few napkins to clean up. "I'm sorry, Zeke."

"The 'R' is smudged now. It's not a Revolutionary War, it's just Evolutionary now!"

"I'm sorry. I just got a message about the sale tomorrow. See Suburban Outfitters is having this huge sale for ten minutes where they're practically giving stuff away. Which I don't understand how that works with the amount of time people take to get in, look around, wait in line, and pay -"

"But does it make it ok for you to ruin my cards?!"

"I'll buy you that shirt you saw the other day!" Talia tried to cheer him up.

"Dancing robot shirt?"

"That's the one."

"I am...so in!" Zeke got up and started to dance like a robot before thanking his sister in a robotic voice. "Thanks, Tally."

"It's the least I can do. I did smudge the 'Rostin' Tea Party." Zeke pointed at Talia so she could dance with him. "I'm not doing it."

"You're not?" He looked at her with his puppy dog eyes that she could never say no to. Zeke might be, as people call him, nerdy and a dork, but she still loves him. "Ok, fine." Talia started to do the Running Man. "Oh, oh, oh, oh."

Zeke smiled before he copied her. "Oh, oh, oh, oh." He moved his arms like a worm before asking Talia, "Are you going before or after you get your hair dye?"

Talia stopped with a gasp before grabbing her hair. "We agreed to never speak of my hair."

Talia was still hyped about the sale that she had to tell her two best friends, Alex Russo and Harper Finkle. She ran toward Alex's locker until she spotted Gigi and her copycats, who recently had a nose job. She doesn't understand why anyone would wanna look like Gigi, if she were being honest Alex is a lot prettier.

"Look! Alex had an accident again!" Gigi grinned after spilling water on the floor. Talia glared at her before running toward the girls' bathroom.

"Gigi, this is silly. How long is this gonna go on? We've been fighting with each other forever," Alex said. The rivalry between the two started in kindergarten when Gigi spilled juice on Alex's mat during nap time and told everyone she had an accident.

"Fighting? Really? Let's see. I've won, like, a thousand times and you've won none. So it's not really a fight," Gigi answered with a shrug.

"Hey, Gigi and her Pussycats," Talia said from behind as she wrapped her arms around the copycats' shoulders. "Gigi, there's a few girls in the bathroom saying how you buy your clothes from the Thrift stores."

The copycats gasped. "Everyone knows Gigi doesn't," one said.

"Well someone should teach them a lesson," Talia said with a nod while pointing to the bathroom.

Gigi snapped her fingers and they left. Alex and Harper's mouth dropped when they saw toilet paper stuck to the girls' belts, making it look like they went to the bathroom and forgot to check themselves.
