Overview
Trish is working her brand new job at Miss Suzy's Soups. Coincidentally, Trish's boss is also Ally's former teacher. A playful prank turns into a foul recipe for disaster when Miss Suzy's business starts to get lost because of Ally. Will our four heroes be able to recover the losses, or will Miss Suzy's Soups be doomed?
Episode Summary
After Dez shows off his thing for bigger props to his friends, Ally reveals she has joined a social networking website called Tweeter. Though, she does not have too many followers at first due to her more "serious" twits. In addition, Trish has gotten a job at Ms. Suzy's Soups, to which Ally and Trish's elementary music teacher owns. The foursome decides to visit Ms. Suzy at her restaurant.
At Ms. Suzy Soup's, Ally sees her three friends get gold stars from Ms. Suzy while she is the only one who doesn't get one. As said by Ms. Suzy, Dez finished his soup, Austin colored the picture on his placemat, and Trish has been improving at her job. Ally finished her soup as well, but only got the nutrition provided by the food. After eating, Team Austin decides to twit about the restaurant. Ally decides to twit about putting a rubber spider in an old bowl of soup called "spider-noodle soup", which gains her Tweeter popularity. She is amazed and happy when she gains 5,000 followers. But when her picture makes people stop eating at Ms. Suzy's Soups upon thinking the soups are full of spiders and contaminated, she feels guilty about the incident. However, the situation worsens when people start to make parody pictures of it and post it online. Ms. Suzy warns Ally that unless she gets her business increased, her restaurant will be shut down for good.
Having gotten the idea of making Ms. Suzy a commercial for her business from Dez, the gang decide to start working on one. Austin and Trish star in it, Dez films it, and Ally writes the jingle. When Ally finishes writing her jingle, she shows it to Austin and Ms. Suzy, who both think it should have been put together with simpler lyrics. That disappoints Ally, having her tell Austin that through her helping, she wants to be given a gold star like she always gives everyone else. Though Austin tries to tell Ally that it is no big deal, Ally doesn't quite get the message and ends up going a bit overboard with her plans and almost ruins everything for the commercial. This includes her trying to be a total perfectionist when things don't go the way she wants them to. Dez saves the day by editing her commercial to make it a hit when posted on her Tweeter account.
Finally, when business is back successfully at the restaurant, Ms. Suzy explained she only gave gold stars to people that needed motivation. Ally never needed one; but to make her feel better, she gets a gold star from Ms. Suzy and is finally satisfied with herself. The next day, Ally arrives at Sonic Boom while Austin and Trish are helping film a Sonic Boom commercial with Dez. She was filling in for Trish, but when she arrives, she is completely covered, from head to toe, in gold stars, catching the others off-guard.
