Tia lies about her age to her new college-boy beau Michael, making her popular with the cool coffeehouse set — and leaving Tamera out in the cold.
After an ugly encounter with last year’s prom queen Rhonda, the twins seem insecure about their looks and question Ray and Lisa about their birth parents.

At home, Tia and Tamera promise to never fall for something like that again when Montell Jordan knocks on the door needing help for his car.
In exchange for tickets for a sold-out Boyz II Men concert — which Roger wasn’t successful in getting — Tamera promises Elliot, the school nerd, that she will get Tia to date him.
Then, when copies of Tia’s journal are passed around to the other students, she accuses Tamera of stealing it, while Tamera accuses Tia of writing in her journal that the former cheating on her math test, landing them in Student Court, their lawyers being two “smooth-talking” new kids, Trevor (Kenan Thompson) and Todd (Kel Mitchell).
It turns out that Trevor and Todd fooled them both in revenge for rejecting them in front of the entire student body.

Devlin cancels his date with Tia, leaving her alone until she goes to Ragtime with Ray, who buys $300 tickets that turned out to be fake.
Tamera gets sick and cannot do her radio show one night, so she asks Tia to cover for her but she ends up wimping out.
The on-air arguments attract a lot of callers so Tamera and Jordan start to do the show together but cannot agree on one thing.
Tamera, enjoying her new-found freedom, gives herself 5 names, one for each guy she meets because she does not want to be tied down to anyone (except Jordan but not for the time being).
So nervous, in fact, that she runs out of the church and goes to a bar and meets up with her past friend Foxy Jones.
