A hurricane is heading for Lawndale, forcing Ms. Li to evacuate the school in the middle of a pep rally. However, Daria and Jane were hanging out on the roof to escape said pep rally, and wind up locked up there with Kevin and Brittany. The four survive by squeezing into the rickety shed which houses the school's water heater.
