After failing to make the cheerleading squad, Keely lies to her mother and says that she made it in order to protect her. Instead of telling her the truth, Phil, Keely, and Tia work together to convince Mandy Teslow that Keely is indeed a cheerleader.
Pim, fed up with Debbie's constantly positive attitude, sets out to find just one small thing that Debbie can't stand.

Debbie: One day, I hope to be an action news anchor!
In an ironic twist, season two would see Keely's interest in becoming a news anchor suddenly increase, while Debbie never expressed the wish again.
| Debbie: (suddenly appearing behind Pim) I'm not a fraud, I'm a Capricorn! What's your sign?
This is the third episode in production order in which Pim has muttered evilly to herself after Debbie walked away, only to have her appear over her shoulder and respond to her musings to herself.
