Newt meets the new girl in school, Jessica, and develops a crush on her. Lucky for Newt, she likes him. When Jessica asks Newt out on a date, Newt accepts. However, Newt doesn't feel like he can go through with it since Jessica is smart, and he is not. With a little help from Stickler, Cory and Meena use a special ear piece to talk to Newt and they tell him what to say. Meanwhile, the President's mother comes for a visit and redecorates the Oval Office. In order to keep her out of the office, the President makes Victor keep her distracted, which results in a cooking contest between them.

Cory decides to blow off a play date with Sophie to go to the Liberry with Newt and Meena to mingle. Before he goes, Sophie sees him dancing to the Kung Fu Kats theme song and saves it to her computer. When she finds him at the Liberry, she sends the video to him as blackmail, saying that unless he can hang out with the big kids, she will send the video to everyone. Sophie then gets rid of the three new friends they made, and makes them do stuff against there will, so Cory, Newt, and Meena decide to make Sophie hate being with the big kids.

While rehearsing at Newt's house, Alexander walks in and tells them that if they want to keep their gig at the Liberry, they better write a song by sundown. Cory and Newt expect Meena to help, but she has to leave them to help Sophie's Sunshine Girls group learn about first aid. After many distractions, the two end up getting in a fight, and Cory winds up stuck in the ceiling (or floor according to him). Meanwhile, the Sunshine Girls expect Meena to just give them their badges, something Meena won't do.

Candy is sick of Cory lying to her, so he promises not to lie anymore, while Stickler also gives up his gadgets and spying ways to be friends with everyone. When the President and Victor go on a trip to New York, Cory is left in charge of Sophie and Tanisha. Candy comes over to play house, but Cory doesn't realize she actually meant trying to instill good values and education into Sophie and Tanisha. Sick of Candy not letting them have fun, Sophie prank calls Cory and pretends to be a girl named Kimberly, causing Candy to get upset and leave. Knowing that he never went out with a girl named Kimberly, Cory enlists Stickler's spying expertise to find out who really made the call.
