Synopsis: “The Holograms and the Misfits are totally focused on beating each other at the annual Music Awards. During all of this, three of the Starlight Girls run away because they feel neglected by Jerrica and the others. Meanwhile, Video introduces the band to Danse, a talented dancer who has a special request for them. And Eric hires a new secret weapon to make trouble for his rivals.”
Summary: We open with Deirdre, one of the Starlight girls, rocking out with her guitar in her bedroom. The other girls mention it’s time to watch Lin-Z’s show and so they all head downstairs.
On the TV, Lin-Z announces the big annual Music Awards, and it looks like both Jem and the Hologram’s and the Misfits will be vying for best rock band.
Later on at Pizzazz’s mansion, the Misfits and Eric Raymond are concerned for their future. With Jerrica Benton in control of Starlight Music, Eric is going to be out of a job. Pizzazz does not see an issue here, as she has an excellent resource to tap into: her father.
Pizzazz marches into Harvey Gabor’s office and asks him to buy a music company. Being the usual neglectful father we’ve known him to be, Mr. Gabor is far too preoccupied with completing a report than to listen to his daughter’s request. After disrupting his work, he cedes to Pizzazz’s demands and tells her to buy whatever she needs and let the bank handle it.
Jerrica decides to take the Starlight girls shopping for their back to school clothes. Just as they arrive at the store, we get a music video.
Cue Jem and the Hologram’s music video: “She Makes An Impression”.
Deirdre tries to show Jerrica a costume that looks like like Jem’s, but is quickly dismissed because Jerrica is too preoccupied with other things.
Later at Starlight Music, Jerrica’s worst nightmare is realized when across the street, a sign goes up reading: “Misfits Music.”
Jerrica: It’s my worst nightmare come true.
Jerrica decides to find out what’s going on and heads over, but she’s suddenly confronted by Eric Raymond’s old secretary.
Pizzazz: When you run you out of business…
Roxy: You can come work for us…
Stormer: Ya, cleaning windows!
Eric: See you at the music awards… when we win.
When Jerrica exists the building, Eric gives the go ahead to Techrat, who runs a computer program that starts up an video sequence on the massive video screen above Misfits Music. As Jerrica storms off, fuming, the Misfits laugh at Jerrica’s expense.
At Starlight house, Jerrica collects her band members to discuss Misfits problems. Suddenly, Jerrica is stopped by Deirdre who wants to show her a song she’s been working on. Unfortunately for Deirdre, she’s rebuffed once again because Jerrica is too busy with other matters.
Cut to Eric Raymond who meets with Techrat (in an underground parking lot) to discuss a new electronic jamming device, they decide to drive somewhere and test it. The Misfits decide to come along for the ride, but when Pizzazz and Stormer sit in the backseat next to Techrat, he is visibly unnerved by their closeness. It turns out that he’s agoraphobic.
At Starlight mansion, the Hologram’s meet in Synergy’s secret room to discuss what they’re going to do for the music awards. Jerrica asks Synergy to “cook up something extra special.” And so Synergy projects new outfits for the band and a laser show.
Trouble lurks just outside Starlight mansion when Techrat tests his electronic jamming device. After pointing it at the mansion, the front gate opens by itself. On the inside, havoc is wreaked when the lights start flickering and other electronic devices start to malfunction, including Synergy. Jem and the Hologram’s dive for cover when Synergy’s holographic projects and lasers start shooting in every direction (this does not make any sense. So Synergy’s projects can…
