02x51 - A Crime of Fashion

[bunniefuu]

:

Jen, look at this halter.

It's so cute!

I have to try it on.

I thought you said we were

just window shopping.

We are.

You see it in the window, and

then you try it on.

Okay, and you have to try this.

Cute...

All right.

Come on!

JEN: You so don't need

another top.

CAITLIN: Oh, yes, I do.

You know my favourite cropped

tee?

The one with the ruffled

sleeves?

Uh-huh?

Ruined.

I was closing the Big Squeeze

last night, and I just met up

with that hottie, Ryan, from

Taj Mahome Video, when Tricia

showed up and accidently

on purpose spilled her milkshake

all down my top.

No way.

She is so mean!

I know, right?

Oh, I love this top.

Cute!

So I go up to the washroom to

get cleaned up, and when I come

back, Tricia's taken off with

Ryan!

Shut up!

I can't believe Ryan would even

go for her.

Maybe he just likes mean

girls.

Whatever.

So, what about the top?

It's perfect.

Oh...

How much is it?

bucks?

Aah!

I am not letting you blow

bucks on a shred of fabric

covered in shiny plastic bits.

They're glass beads!

And look, it even comes with

this cute little matching

keychain!

For that price, it should

come with a matching skirt.

I know, I can't afford it.

Can I at least take the little

tag thingy?

As a memory?

No!

Why not!

Let's see... because it's

stealing!

It's just part of the price

tag.

It's free!

With the top!

Okay...

So what did you say to

Tricia?

Nothing.

She's too selfish to care if she

hurts someone's feelings anyway,

so what's the point.

I can't believe Gwen and

Mandy are still friends with

her.

I know.

I'm just so glad I'm not.

Come on, let's grab some

Cinnabons.

Okay, so what's the big news?

Oh, let me guess, you've got a

new job.

Not just any job, the

sweetest job in the mall.

You're looking at the newest

employee at the Soda Hop.

What's so great about that,

other than the fact that the

clones don't work there?

Ow.

I think working at the ice cream

parlour sounds fun.

You know what they sell

there.

Ice cream.

Exactly.

That's not all there is,

dudes.

There's Amélie.

Is that a new flavour?

Amélie's that hot, new

exchange student.

You mean, Amélie the French

chick?

Yep.

Dude, she must be, like, the

hottest girl in all of France!

And I'm gonna score a date

with her.

Look, there she is!

She's... hot...

Eh, I've see better.

What are you doing here?

Unfortunately, he's with me.

When is your dad getting back

from his trip?

Um... hey, that was my

breakfast!

Want it back?

Nyaah!

Ugh!

Gross.

Doesn't matter, I'll be eating

ice cream with Amélie, very

soon.

Hey, not so fast.

It's your turn to baby-sit, big

brother.

I can't.

I've got my first day on the

job.

Well, I've had it with him.

Last night, he tied every pair

of my underwear together and

strung them up over the hydro

pole.

Aahh!

My tampons!

Robbie, put those away right

now!

Ew... suddenly, I am so glad I'm

an only child.

He's a nightmare!

And until your dad gets back

from his trip, he's all yours.

I'll take him.

You want to baby-sit.

No, but he'll drive the

clones crazy.

Excellent.

Yes.

Bye, Caitlin.

I'm gone.

Later.

Bye!

Ow, darn it.

Caitlin!

Tricia!

Hi, I just wanted to

apologize for yesterday.

I felt so bad about spilling

that milkshake on you.

I can be such a klutz!

Okay...

And then I took off with

Ryan, and I had no idea you were

into him until Gwen told me.

You must've thought I was so

mean.

Oh, no.



I don't think you're mean.

You know, we never do

anything together anymore.

Let's go shopping together like

we used to.

What about Gwen and Mandy?

They're just not as much fun

to shop with.

So, you wanna go?

I've got a % off card at

Albatross & Finch.

Are you kidding?

I'd love to!

Thought you would.

See you at noon!

Bye!

Bye!

You dig down, turn your

wrist, and voila.

The perfect scoop.

(Giggling)

Amazing, Amélie!

The passion you exude when you

scoop--

Dude!

Excuse me, it's all right.

We are with the ice cream

scoopers!

Dig the hairnet, dude!

Yeah, yeah.

How come Amélie doesn't have

to wear one?

look at her.

Would you make her wear a

hairnet?

(Sighing)

So what'll it be?

French vanilla?

But you gotta eat and run.

I'm trying for alone time with

Amélie.

Good luck with that.

Sorry that took so long.

That flavour was really hard to

scoop up.

(Sighing)

That's it for me.

I don't care how cute the French

chick is.

I can't eat anymore.

Later, Jude.

Later, dude.

Huh?

Whoa!

Dude...

Aaahh!

(Laughing)

Good one.

Jude, what are you doing?

Check it out!

Whoa!

I know!

Isn't it awesome?

I'd forgotten how great you

are to shop with, Tricia.

(Laughing)

(Phone ringing)

Hi, you've reached the

Cracky Barn, where butt-cracks

are our specialty.

(Flatulence)

Have a cracky day!

(Laughing)

The Cracky Barn!

Oh-- Aahhh!

(Laughing)

Oh, my gosh.

Can't you just smell the style?

Come on!

Caitlin, this top would be

perfect on you!

I know!

I love it.

I tried it on this morning, but

it's just way too expensive.

These camis are on sale.

So, do you want to try anything

on?

No, I already forgot I have

everything from here already.

Wanna check out Huntington's?

Okay.

(Alarm blaring)

Huh?

Show me your bag, please?

Um, sure.

Here you go.

They probably forgot to take

the tag off at the last store.

(Gasping)



(Chuckling)

(Gasp)

You stole this top.

I can't believe you'd do

something like that, Caitlin.

I didn't!

I don't know how it got there!

I swear I--

(Sirens approaching)

I came as soon as I could.

Received a call for a

code--niner.

Where's the perp?

But I'm not a perp, honest!

(Sobbing)

So, we're finally alone.

Mm-hmm.

So, you wanna go out with me?

How do I put this in English?

No.

Huh?

(Crying)

Did you just say "no"?

Yes.

Why?

I'm, like, the most eligible guy

in the mall.

I heard you ran through

Grind Me naked.

That wasn't me.

Okay, it was, but I can explain.

It wasn't me!

You've got the wrong girl!

I'm a good girl!

Ask anyone!

I'm a good guy!

Ask anyone!

Okay, maybe not anyone.

Please?

No.

Please?

No.

I can't believe they accused

me of shoplifting.

Ha, neither can we.

It's not funny, Jonesy.

It was awful.

Ron wouldn't let me go until

they took mug sh*ts.

And my parents had to bail me

out.

That sucks.

At least we all know you didn't

do it, right, guys?

Right.

Right on.

Right.

Jen?

Right!

I know you'd never do anything

like that.

I mean, I don't think you would.

What do you mean you don't

think?

Well, it was that halter you

love so much, and you were gonna

take the keychain.

That was just the tag!

I'd never steal a whole top!

But then, how did it end up

in your bag!

I don't know.

I just know I didn't take it.

I believe you.

Whatever happens, we're here for

you, all of us.

Thanks.

I've gotta run.

I promised my mom I'd help her

pick out a gift.

Ha, loser!

You always get stuck with the

lame-o parental crap.

Hey, I got off easy.

Courtney got stuck babysitting

your rotten little brother

tonight.

Besides, sounds like you're the

loser.

I heard all about Amélie.

Yeah, she sh*t me down, but

that doesn't mean she won't go

out with me.

Funny, I thought that's

exactly what it meant.

I'll wear her down.

No woman can resist the Jonesy

charm forever.

Hey, by the way, did you guys

see?



They made a mannequin of me in

the window of Tarted Up Formal

Wear.

It's true.

It's a dead ringer.

Nice, dude.

You know what they say about

imitation.

No, what?

I don't know, but it's

something good.

Well, I definitely look hot

in a tux.

I think I'm gonna go stare at

me.

Later, gotta bounce.

And I'm gonna go visit

Amélie.

See ya.

Bye.

Don't worry, Cait.

We'll figure this out.

We just need to walk through

what happened.

Okay, so Tricia and I were at

Albatross.

NIKKI: Wait a minute... you

were with Tricia?

It was Tricia!

Okay, if we're gonna prove

your innocence, we need the

Albatross & Finch security tape.

That's impossible.

Ron said he won't pull the tape

since I was caught red-handed.

And I've been banned from the

store.

No sweat, I'll distract the

staff while you grab the tape.

It's not like they pay attention

to the customers anyway, right?

Right!

Wanna go out with me?

No.

Wanna go out with me?

No.

Wanna go out with me?

(Sighing)

No.

Wanna go out with me?

Ugh, fine.

Wanna go-- wait, fine?

You mean you will!

Yes!

I knew I'd break you down

eventually.

Ha ha!

Operation Big Bird is a go.

CAITLIN: Great.

Yeah, I just thought you

should know that a way cooler

store called, um, uh, Snobbiness

has just opened down the hall.

You've got a good ten minutes.

Perfect.

Caitlin, what's taking so

long?

I can't find yesterday's

tape!

Well, get out!

You've gotta hurry--

Ahem...

Hi!

We looked, and there are no

stores that are cooler than ours

in this entire mall.

Ha ha, well, then, don't you

feel better knowing that now?

Um, yeah, so, like, I heard

you just--

What is she doing here?

Am I in Albatross & Finch?

Heh-heh, I so thought this was

the Stereo Shack.

(Sighing)

I look so hot...

Ha ha, hey!

You're the guy from the store

window!

Yes, yes I am.

What are you all proud about?

You're dressed like a weirdo.

What are you talking about,

little dudes?

Nooo!

Not a banana hammock!

I can't believe you got

thrown in the slammer again.

I know.

Thanks for bailing me out, guys.



I just couldn't call my parents

again.

Sorry.

I guess maybe that wasn't the

best plan after all.

Duh.

Hey, can we talk about something

important for a sec?

I've got a date with Amélie, the

French chick, tonight, and it's

got to be perfect.

Finally harassed the poor

girl into going out with you,

huh?

Just don't bring her back to

the house.

I've got to study tonight.

The house!

That's awesome!

My dad's out of town, your mom

will be out.

Perfect babe pad conditions.

Ugh, Jonesy, don't make me

sick!

I'll take Amélie out for a

nice dinner, and then back to

the love nest for dessert.

Ew!

See you guys later.

Bye.

Okay, so how do we get our

hands on that security tape?

We're not going to, Nikki.

I told you, I'm not allowed in

that store... ever!

How about when they're

closed?

I don't like the sound of

this.

I don't like the sound of

this.

They've got a super high-tech

security system.

Help me, Darth.

You're my only hope.

What's in it for me?

The knowledge that you helped

me?

Darth, you should do it.

When Han Solo showed up at

Cloud City on Bespin, Lando

Calrissian helped him out.

Yes, but then Lando betrayed

them by handing Leia and

Chewbacca over to Lord Vader.

True, but ultimately, Lando

redeems himself by freeing them,

saving Skywalker, and joining

the Rebel Alliance.

You're right.

I'll do it!

Oh, thank you, Darth.

You think I don't see what's

going on?

Stop!

Nothing gets past me.

Nothing!

So, you almost ready to go?

Just have to run to the

washroom.

Mm-mmm...

Aah!

What are you doing here?

My plans have changed, and

so, therefore, have yours.

Take your brother.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, I've got a

date!

So do I.

See you later.

Ah, who are you?

Robbie.

He's my brother.

My stupid step-sister just

dropped him off.

So, bring him along.

Your brother seems cute.

Do not do anything.

Do not say anything, got it?

I know where you live.

I can't believe you told

Amélie we love sushi.

Oops.

Hey!

Hey.

Ow!

(Laughing)

Kids...

Robbie!

Could you excuse me for a



moment?

Get up there right now, or

there's an atomic wedgie in your

very near future.

Ow!

Jonesy!

Uh-oh.

You-- you--

I think the word you're

looking for is pervert.

What's wrong with you?

Nothing!

Oh, gross!

Excuse moi?

No, not you!

I don't know what I'm doing

here.

You're here 'cause Jonesy's

in love with you!

I-- I didn't say that!

Yes, you did!

You said she was the hottest

girl you've ever seen in your

whole life, including in the

movies.

(Giggling)

Okay, I'll stay.

Aahh!

Mm-mm.

I don't like ice cream.

Really?

You ate a lot as the shop.

Okay, I've temporarily

bypassed the security systems.

You've got T-minus two minutes

and counting.

Got it.

I can't believe you fell for

that.

I thought you were Amélie.

(Laughing)

That's it!

You're going for a swim.

If you drown, not my fault.

Zut!

Au secours!

Help!

What seems to be the problem,

ma'am?

I think Jonesy might k*ll his

brother.

We've got a code- in

progress.

CAITLIN: Hurry!

Hurry, Darth.

Ahem...

I'll take that, maggot.

I can't believe you both got

thrown in the slammer.

Well, at least Ron finally

watched the security tape.

Caitlin, I am so sorry I ever

doubted you, even for a second.

It's okay, Jen.

It all worked out.

(Sirens)

Though it might not for Tricia.

Wanna watch?

You'd better come with me,

punk.

Excuse me?

You're under arrest, for

infraction of code-.

What?

For framing me.

We caught your little crime

of fashion on tape.

You should be ashamed of

yourself, young lady.

Wait, this is a mistake.

I'll have your badge,

rent-a-copper!

I want my lawyer!

Order has been restored to

the mall.

Hey, Jonesy, I found your

friend.

Jude, you're wearing a

nut-hugger!

Oh, my gosh!

(Laughing)

That is not funny, little

dude!

I don't want everyone seeing my

kiwis!

Nice, dude!

Maybe you've got potential as a

little brother yet.

Hey, Jude, get back here!

So, get this: Albatross &



Finch cleared my name, and threw

in a gift certificate for

bucks, so I got my halter!

Ooh!

And Tricia got hours of

community service.

(Laughing)

Nice.

Sweet.

All I got was dumped and

fired.

And dude, look who got your

girl.

You are such a sweet little

boy.

Why you little brat!

Get back here!
