Meanwhile, Emma and Manny deal with eighth-grader Spinner's bullying.

Terri doesn't want to attend Degrassi's first nighttime dance because she thinks she's too fat for any guy to like her. Spinner likes her, but Paige wants him for herself and, by playing on her insecurities, gets Terri drunk. Meanwhile, Emma is puzzled by the new kid's behavior and J.T. and Toby skip the dance to look at Internet pornography.

With Parents' Day fast approaching, Toby tries to convince his divorced parents that the event is canceled in order to avoid an ugly, public spat between them.
