Delia's mom forces Delia to get a job or re-enter beauty pageants because she thinks she has too much free time. Lindy finds her one as hostess on Fireman Freddy's Spaghetti Station, the gang's favorite restaurant when they were younger. Delia, however, turns out not to be the hostess Freddy wants. When Lindy welcomes a family into the joint, Freddy convinces her to be the new hostess, much to Delia's dismay. When Lindy tries to quit, Freddy asks her to stay for a big birthday party coming up and leaves her in charge, to which her bitter co-workers respond by quitting and leaving her alone to handle everyone and everything. Meanwhile, Logan and Garrett are bullied by some obnoxious kids who have taken their place in the Rumble Juice and they try to retrieve it.

After watching a romantic film, Logan and Garrett argue that their group votes are unfair, since there are more girls than boys, thus they end up always doing girly activities. At school, they decide to invite a new guy, Tom Bigham from California, to the group. Even though it seems like a good idea at first, he turns out to be quite annoying, and the group decides to give him away, without success.

While Lindy is looking through the mail, she finds a letter she wrote to herself during third grade. Lindy reads her letter and finds out she wished for better friends by the time she gets to high school. When everyone else gets theirs, Lindy hides the letter and tells her friends that she hadn't received it yet. They go looking for it in their old third grade classroom and in the post office, when they realize that Lindy is hiding something. Lindy throws the letter away and the group looks for it in the school's garbage room. When they finally read it, it causes a rift between Lindy and the group.
