[edit] Synopsis

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

After Ruff had destroyed his electronic address book with the phone number of the star he was to enlist for the episode, Taylor, Brian, and Noah were required to make a music video with some easily-recognizable stars - their grandparents - while staying under a budget of $30.

Part one of the challenge required them to plan out a music video with some "mystery stars" to the song, "Saturday Night" by Aaron Carter. The FETCH!ers were to buy all the props needed for the video from a dollar store, but staying under a budget of $30. They surpassed this with 86¢, but abandoned some props to reduce their spending.

Taylor chose to direct the video, Noah chose to film it, and Brian was upset to be left with the job of just simply playing the music and choreographing one part of the video. Ruff eventually let the kids in on the truth, and they introduced their grandparents.

Back in Studio G, the rest earned only 45 points in the Half-Time Quiz. A satellite interview revealed the angry video crew. Eventually, they assigned roles to their stars, but were further angered when they discovered their grandparents were to change into costumes in an portable toilet. For their efforts, Taylor, Brian, and Noah earned 50 points for making the video, and 40 points for staying under budget. Noah got an additional 5 points for commanding the others to pull him back with a camera dolly, or "acting like groceries in a shopping cart".
