breath, who is Jimmy Starr's daughter, gets hired to play Austin’s love interest, the gang must find a way to finish the video without hurting Kira's feelings.

Episode Summary

Austin's next video will be produced by Starr Records, and Dez gets to direct it. He chooses to film the music video at an amusement park. In order to skip out of getting a permit, Trish quits the one job she likes (Puffy's Pillows, where they actually want her to sleep all day) and gets a job at Phil's Fun Town. They meet Kira, the girl who was hired to play Austin's girlfriend. But, they discover that she has horrible breath.

The first scene they film in on a Ferris Wheel ride, which gets stuck, and Austin has to spend an hour with Kira babbling about her life story. Then Kira and Ally get stuck in a giant hamster ball, and they decide they should fire her.

Then they learn that Kira is Jimmy Starr's daughter, so they have to keep her. In an attempt to subtlety fix her breath, Trish carries around a cart of free mints, but then people take all of them away before Kira can get one. Dez offers a corn dog with toothpaste on it, but Kira denies it, calling saying corn dogs are disgusting and eats a garlic-anchovy pizza instead. They also do a water shooting game and fill it with mouthwash, and Austin attacks Kira, but none enters her mouth.

They decide to try and get Kira disgusted so she quits. They give Austin a device that makes it seem like he's drooling and, like planned, she quits, disgusted. The next day, when they are recasting, Kira apologizes and decides to finish the video. Then Jimmy Starr empathizes with Austin for his drooling problem, claiming that he used to have a problem, too. He arranges for Austin to speak to a bunch of kids about how drooling doesn't stop you from reaching your dreams. During the speech, the drooling tool malfunctions, and Team Austin admits that they wanted her to quit because of her bad breath. Jimmy didn't realize because when he had his drooling problem fixed a side effect of his surgery was he lost hi sense of smell. Jimmy promises to help with her breath, but they can't do it in time for the video, which is due that night.

Dez ends up filming the video properly, and the kissing scene is done where Austin and Kira are in separate hamster balls and they kiss through the plastic. As Team Austin goes back to Phil's Fun Town, the little girl with the lollipop ends up being the complainer that got Trish fired. Before the episode ends, Team Austin take pictures in the photo booth, after that the episode ends.

  • When Austin and Kira are in the Tubs when Kira is talking to Austin and Dez about how she wasn't able to do the video, none of them cringed like they did before.

  • You can clearly tell that the caramel apple Dez is eating isn't real, and he isn't really licking it.
  • When Trish puts Dez a caramel apple on his forehead, his forehead isn't greasy or sticky but it had to be since caramel is greasy and sticky.
