About the author

In this episode, the tensions and complexities of high school life come to the forefront as Mouse grapples with feelings of insecurity and isolation. She believes that her friends don’t like her because they don’t seem to be planning anything special for her sixteenth birthday. This misconception leads to a swirl of emotions for Mouse, who is unaware that her friends are actually planning a surprise party for her at the local skating rink.

Imogen, on the other hand, finds herself entangled in her own set of challenges. She inadvertently offends Johnny (Antonio Cipriano), the new guy in town, when she expresses her disapproval of his apparent interest in dating multiple girls. Johnny, feeling unfairly judged, tells Imogen to mind her own business. However, after learning about the difficult experiences Imogen has been through, Johnny has a change of heart. He apologizes to her the next day, acknowledging the weight of her past struggles. In a gesture of goodwill, Imogen casually invites Johnny to Mouse’s birthday party, hoping to mend fences and extend an olive branch.

Meanwhile, Faran faces her own battles as she deals with harassment and teasing from the boys at the pool. Her boyfriend suggests that she should adopt a more laid-back attitude like the guys. In response, Faran decides to pull a prank on the lifeguard, hoping to fit in better. However, this plan backfires when the same lifeguard is absent during a crucial moment, leading to a crisis. Faran takes responsibility and fires the lifeguard, later confiding in her boyfriend that it was a mistake to prank him. She also reveals the truth about her ability to dance again, a revelation that her boyfriend does not take well. Feeling hurt and betrayed, he decides not to attend the birthday party, leaving Faran to navigate her emotions alone.

Noa, too, is faced with a blast from the past when her old friend from juvie, Jen (Ava Capri), re-enters her life. Their past affair and Jen’s propensity for trouble stir up complications when Jen steals from the cash register at Noa’s workplace. Noa covers for Jen, making it clear that she wants to avoid any trouble that could land her back in juvie. Despite the tension, the two reconcile, and since Noa’s boyfriend won’t be attending the party, she invites Jen to come along instead.
