Winter, 4th repeat of 6th/8th grade
Plot
Dawn is in California, but she has finally figured out that California is a great place to visit, but when it's just your real life there are still the same issues and blahness that everyone deals with in real life. Nothing is bad, per say, but it's just normal. She clearly thought this was going to be just a six month "all about Dawn" visit, because she gets super pissy and annoyed that her dad's girlfriend (who she had already met, and she knew that her dad was serious about her) is always around taking the attention off of her.
Dawn has also jumped right back into babysitting with the We Love Kids Club, which is the California version of the BSC. It's very laid back, they don't have set meetings, they don't have a record book or officers. They get some local media attention from a newspaper, which leads into a segment on the local news, and then their business blows up. Dawn gets them to agree to be a little more organized, after they piss off a ton of clients and double book themselves on several jobs. Also, Dawn sends all the media pieces to the BSC, and Kristy gets all jealous bc her club is better and has never been on the news.
Dawn's dad proposes to Carol, who happily accepts, and Dawn loses her mind. She decides this must mean her dad doesn't need her around, so she STEALS HIS CREDIT CARD and books a flight back to Stoneybrook. She gets there, expecting all rainbows and sunshine, but her mom just sends her right back. Things are pretty tense after that, and then a huge fight between Dad and Carol leads to them calling off their relationship and the engagement.
Takeaways
The WLKC is disappointed they only got four minutes of coverage on the news. Um. Four minutes is an extremely long time for a news segment, especially on something that isn't even news.
Dude, I cannot believe the nerve of Dawn stealing a credit card and booking a flight. She justifies it by saying she is saving her dad money bc he would have to buy her a ticket later and she heard tickets get more expensive. Actually, Dawn, a last minute ticket for a same day ticket probably cost a billion dollars.
Plus, she had to take a cab to the airport which was one hour away. That cab right had to be a billion dollars.
Maybe I am just used to how the BSC runs, but the WLKC basically just sounds like four girls who like to babysit and get together every few weeks to talk about it.
Best Character
Dawn's mom. You know she wanted to just be like "of course you can stay here honey" but she was tough and treated Dawn like the spoiled brat that she is.
Worst Character
That spoiled brat Dawn.
