[edit] Plot

After two weeks of being back at Waverly for almost being expelled, Jenny Humphrey has now become the new it girl. At the upcoming Halloween masquerade Jenny decides to dress up Cleopatra and beats out Tinsley for best costume. Meanwhile, Callie attempts to win back Easy in a Cinderella costume with a secret proving that she's a good person. But it backfires when Callie's costume reminds Easy of the snobby princess she is. After Easy tells her off, Callie runs away to a "health spa" set up by her mom. During the masquarade, Brett and Jeremiah reunite after Brett lies to him about Kara, her very friendly friend. After the masquarade, Easy climbs and accidently collapses an oak tree, putting first floor Dumbarton residents (like Kara) homeless. Tinsley, being the angel that she is, gives Kara a home, creating a very awkward rift with Brett in the room. Meanwhile, Callie finds out that the supposed health spa her mother set up for her is actually some kind of rehab-work camp. Luckily, through group confessions, she learned to get over, and let go of Easy. Easy, in an attempt to get over Callie and be able to stay in Dumbarton, Easy searches for an extracurricular activity, but instead finds himself in Heath's club, Men of Waverly. While Callie's away, Jenny will play, with Drew that is, her supposed savior who paid for her readdmittance by paying off the owner of the burned barn. While going through Callie's things, Jenny finds out that it was Callie who was her savior and who paid for the burned barn fiasco.
