No real timeline is mentioned, so we will assume between Halloween and Thanksgiving of their second 8th grade year.
Claudia has a math test coming up and it's a big one. Janine has been helping her study and Claudia feels good about it. She takes the test and when she gets it back, she earned a 94%! Say what?!
After class her and another girl, Shawna Riverson, get called up to the front. Turns out they both got the exact same grade and got the exact same questions wrong in the exact same way. One of them cheated. Shawna instantly is like "not it" and the teacher lets her go. With Claudia's shitty school history, obviously it's her, right? She doesn't really say anything and leaves.
The principal calls her parents, who kind of believe that Claudia cheated and then Janine is like "aw hell no." Claudia, Janine and the BSC girls make it a goal to prove Shawna is the cheater. Claudia even overhears Shawna in the bathroom with her bitchy friends admitting she cheated. So now they just have to prove it.
They break into Shawna's locker, find an incriminating note, but realize they can't do anything with it. Claudia does some dumb shit in class, making herself look like a moron and trying to get Shawna to admit it, but of course she doesn't. Finally Janine has had enough and goes to the principal herself. The principal and the teacher decide to let Claudia retake the test, which she does and scores even better. Then the teacher confronts Shawna, who just loses it and admits to everything. Problem solved!
The other plot is that the Pike triplets break another window playing ball but won't fess up as to which one did it. Mallory has them re-enact the event, they see that it's really all of their faults, and their parents unground them and take them out to celebrate their ungrounding.
Takeaways:
Why was it just okay for the teacher to take Shawna's word for it? He should have either given them both F's or made them both retake the test that minute.
The Pike triplets break a window and won't rat each other out. Mallory has them re-enact it. I don't think they point was that they couldn't remember who did it, I think it was that they didn't want to rat on each other. The whole thing was stupid. And the stupidest part? Their parents took them out to celebrate after they finally were like "it's all of our faults".
Janine is like the best big sister ever.
Claudia got two parties after she passed the retake.
