Category: Plot Synopsis

OCTAVIA has orders to eliminate GILES, who is now terrified of going to school. DOROTHY thinks she knows why – it’s hot and he’ll have to wear skimpies. But there’s no getting out of it.

Aliens, VORTEX, NEBULA, and XERON, hurtle towards Earth in their spaceship.

GILES confides in JET – OCTAVIA wants him dead, but JET dismisses the idea. BEANIE is intrigued by JET’s frisbee. She relents and lets him keep it. While GILES avoids the sinister OCTAVIA, he learns that BEANIE lives in the Boiler Room. JET is way impressed. They discover BEANIE has been at Atlantis High for a long time. But for how long?

As CMDR. VERMONT and his troops try to locate the enemy, a soldier is fatally wounded on a soda-run.
A HUNK pleads with SABRINA not to dump him. She gets GILES to video the scene and has the HUNK do a retake, but dumps him anyway. The HUNK sobs buckets. This merely reinforces another of JET’s conspiracy theories; shallow relationships are encouraged by tissue manufacturers to boost profits.
DORSEY scans the sky, while OCTAVIA spies on him. She reports back to her mysterious employer, using a mysterious code.

GILES and JET check out BEANIE’s files. He’s been in the same grade for 36 years! And if he doesn’t pass his exams this year then he’s out. JET and GILES must help him. But how? OCTAVIA catches GILES unawares – and she has a knife!

With ANTONY’s assistance, ANTONIA, GILES, and JET sneak into the Principal’s Office to steal the exam answers. To GILES surprise, OCTAVIA doesn’t eliminate him, but wants to share a hobby instead.

DORSEY readies for the aliens, and plants a landing beacon in his back garden. OCTAVIA watches him.
BEANIE takes the exam disk and instantly memorises the answers. Mid-class both he and DORSEY begin to act very strangely.

CMDR VERMONT and his men track a strange signal, as the aliens make their descent. But something’s wrong – and the aliens are miniaturising!!
The power runs out.. and the beacon shuts down. The Alien Spaceship is lost.. in KISSINGER-THE-DOG’s yawn.

GILES is miraculously washed ashore. Not that the medics care; they’re busy reviving a rich old man who’s fallen victim to SABRINA. While GILES recovers, DOROTHY tells him he probably imagined the whole OCTAVIA-periscope incident. Afterall it’s a confusing time; shifting to a new school… etc. When GRANDPA starts up about mysterious DENNIS, DOROTHY abruptly ends the conversation.

A new school day, sponsored by Reb-elz Coolwear (R.C.). JOSH asks OCTAVIA out. She declines; they’re too different. He likes comic-book superheroes whereas she prefers reality. JOSH defends the fight against evil but OCTAVIA tells him he wouldn’t know evil if it walked up and bit him.

GILES is shocked by OCTAVIA’s aloof attitude. He nearly drowned trying to save her! She denies all knowledge of the periscope.

R.C. Marketing Director, MR LEW SIFFER announces the upcoming launch of the new line. SABRINA models the range. ANTONIA’s sold. It must be cool if SABRINA’s wearing it. As LEW SIFFER outlines the correct way of wearing R.C., GILES, pestering OCTAVIA about a periscope, disrupts assembly and is promptly sent to VIOLET’s office. Meanwhile, JOSH is on a quest to find ‘evil’. COACH SHANE has an idea.

ANTONIA pleads with SABRINA to let her wear the R.C, but SABRINA says no. She fumes at GILES for stealing her scene.

JOSH continues his search for ‘evil’. ANTONIA, JET and ANTONY are no help. SOPHIE suggests the ultimate evil channel. MR DORSEY has the aliens observing earth costumes through the Science Room TV. JOSH and SOPHIE steal in and switch to ultimate evil channel (sponsored by R.C); they see evil people that look like beekeepers. The aliens use their matter-generating module to get R.C.

GILES skips class to talk to someone, but the only person available is BEANIE. DOROTHY’s worried to see her son with the weird kid. She gives GILES a card for therapist, DR. LEGGZ.

JOSH, the superhero, combats evil bee-keepers.

JET tells GILES her conspiracy theories about R.C., and toasters. GILES is sent to the guidance counsellor. MR QUENTIN tells GILES; “if the cap fits wear it”. GILES takes it as a sign to embrace R.C. Happy at last, he heads for the Launch. But SABRINA is horrified. She doesn’t want to look like GILES. The launch is ruined. And if that isn’t bad enough, GILES learns that OCTAVIA has a secret!

As GILES recollects his fleeting moment of passion with OCTAVIA, a spaceship of mice-munching aliens are watching his every move.

BEANIE gets a helping hand/eye as he passes through SHANE and VIOLET’S cool detector at school. ANTONY and ANTONIA have broken up. GILES gets a dismal cool rating from the detector, but at least OCTAVIA wasn’t there to see… he spoke too soon, as she has arrived. His miracle arrives when SOPHIE’s poltergeist is offended by ANTONY and causes havoc.

ANTONY and ANTONIA, separately of course, involve reluctant GILES in their relationship issues. BEANIE has been sketching showerheads again. GILES and JOSH squabble over who will pick up OCTAVIA’S dropped textbook. OCTAVIA spurns JOSH’S advances and hopes to see GILES at the beach party. But the beach is a horror to GILES. And is he sexy enough for her?

In science class GILES is the only one able to verbally answer MR DORSEY’S question as to which one species can consciously alter it’s appearance to attract a mate. DOROTHY advises GILES to get in touch with his INNER CHILD to solve his attitude towards his body. This leads GILES to consider letting go of his younger self and move on. SOPHIE’S temper and poltergeist appear when GILES tells her that ANTONY does not like her.

COACH SHANE gives GILES a bottle of pills to help him in his quest for a decent body. But his body is a temple. JET offers to swap the pills for some of her own additives. GILES relents and takes her ointment, which promises he will look “great”. He rubs it on his chest, but it doesn’t seem to work. Meanwhile JET gets pumped up after taking the pills she gained in the exchange. Beach party day arrives but GILES can’t go topless with a “green” chest! INNER CHILD suggests he take OCTAVIA elsewhere.

GILES is looking for OCTAVIA when DOROTHY exits from her “cleaning job” at the Vermont’s house. That’s odd. MRS VERMONT says she is already at the beach. GILES faces his fear and goes to the beach party. JOSH and ANTONY tease him about wearing a shirt, so he takes it off wishing for super powers. They all laugh at his green chest, but at least OCTAVIA wasn’t there to see the teasing… then he spies her out to sea. Is she in trouble? GILES, a non-swimmer, paddles to rescue her in an inflatable.

OCTAVIA is nowhere to be seen in the sea. Has she been eaten by twin sharks? A periscope with OCTAVIA’S eye in it appears then punctures GILES’ inflatable. GILES can’t swim! MR DORSEY watches from the beach – he wants to tell his side of the story.

GILES’ entrance wakes MR DORSEY’s science class. They’re even more annoyed when SOPHIE arrives with her poltergeist and a mouse which escapes… into GILES’ bag. During the commotion, he spots MR DORSEY swallowing a tail. While GILES gets zapped… SOPHIE discovers a fluffy pink G-string in his bag. Though he pleads innocence, GILES has broken the fundamental school rule. He’s immediately ostracised. Just when things can’t get any worse, they do.

DOROTHY’s new job is at the school canteen. And GILES meets JET, a food additive addict. Only after he’s introduced her to fresh food, and she’s gone to rip the scab off reality, does he learn of her allergies. JOSH’ll hold GILES personally responsible for the consequences.

GILES finds a secret passage leading to the Girls’ changing rooms. There he spies a bag identical to his own, and the girl without the purple dress. He also discovers BEANIE drawing shower-heads. BEANIE swears GILES to secrecy. In return he gives GILES an address (to source the mystery underwear and clear GILES’ good name). As GILES stakes out the address, he hears JET’s stolen the detonator for the missing bomb.

He convinces the CHARITY COLLECTOR (who lives at the house) to help him when a masked superhero, wearing pink G-string, threatens to haul the collector in for an out of date license. GILES discovers that the masked hero is… JOSH!! He threatens to expose JOSH as a wearer of a pink leotard unless the unmasked hero helps find JET.

GILES follows the fruit peel, and finds the bomb’s been detonated. JET demands pentasodium triphosphate, and only then will she hand over the detonator. OCTAVIA appears; an exchange is made – but where is the key to the detonator? GILES & OCTAVIA find the key in a crate of underwear. A mystery is solved. GILES is happy (OCTAVIA kisses him), and VIOLET is pleased to find her imported lingerie. The one school rule is cancelled. MR DORSEY reports back to base – it’s time for phase two.

The Editor of the school website mysteriously vanishes.

DORSEY works feverishly trying to locate the ALIENS.

The ALIEN ship is caught in a spider’s web in the Vermont’s Garden.

There will be an election to replace the missing Editor. GILES is nominated. But by who? – could SABRINA really have nominated him just so she’d have someone easy to beat? GILES decides not to stand but JET convinces him he can’t quit. Besides. OCTAVIA is extremely impressed that GILES is running for the job.

DOROTHY doesn’t want GILES to blow his big chance – he’s got a tradition of no-hoping to continue. She takes him to therapy with DR LEGGZ.

SABRINA blackmails VIOLET. If she doesn’t get help with her campaign then SABRINA will stop supplying VIOLET with the stylie clothes.

GILES finds himself in a no-win situation. If he stands he loses.. if he doesn’t he loses.
SABRINA commandeers the cheerleadering squad for her election campaign, while MRS VERMONT commandeers her husband’s platoon.

The SPIDER approaches the ALIENS. They’re scared. At the last moment they are saved when VERMONT’s stick slashes the spider’s web.

GILES decides to stay in the election, but the outlook is dismal. OCTAVIA is depressed. CMDR VERMONT cheers her up by helping with GILES campaign. They employ bribery and other devious tactics. On election day, GILES is neck n neck with SABRINA.

OCTAVIA admits that she was the one that nominated GILES for Editor of the school website. GILES is stunned.

JOSH as the SILVER LINING guards the ballot boxes – but not very well.

Time to count the votes. BEANIE casts the deciding vote. GILES wins!! And so without his knowing, GILES becomes a mole for THE AGENCY…
