* HelpingAnotherSaveFace: Alice accidentally applies too much orange sunblock and ends up dyeing her skin orange. However, it won't have time to wear off before the day of a pool party, so she doesn't want to go because she'll stick out with her orange skin. To ease her shame, Alice's friends dye ''themselves'' orange at the party too so she won't stick out.

After T.D., Carolina, and Martha announce the vocabulary about personality (with the first two as news reporters and the latter as the "news fairy"), Helen is seen in her house on a hot day. She tries to cool off by a fan, but the dogs get in her way, then the phone rings. It turns out to be Alice, looking forward to Tiffany Blatsky's pool party the next day. Then, T.D. phones up and invites Helen and the dogs over to the Oatley house, where he and Truman are playing Go Fish in a kiddie pool with laminated cards.

They all have fun in the pool, except for Skits who runs in the sprinkler with the toddlers. Just then, Alice arrives, revealing that she was late because she needed to buy more of her special sunscreen which she needs due to sun-burning easily. They have fun together with one another, the toddlers, and Mrs. Oatley, but Alice keeps reapplying her sunscreen until she turns orange.
When her friends point this out, she screams and runs home, with her friends following over. They initially think she's sunburned, but Mrs. Boxwood determines that it isn't sunburn, but rather the sunscreen dyed her skin. She tries to wash it off, but it doesn't work, so she decides it will have to wear off. Alice is none too pleased at this, since Tiffany's pool party is the next day, and when Ronald teases her about it, she even cries.
She phones up Helen and says she won't come to the party as she's too shy. Helen then rounds up Martha, Skits, T.D., and Truman and decides that they must work together to return Alice's skin to normal. Truman tries Mrs. Oatley's body scrub, T.D. tries lemons (since his grandma uses it for freckles), then they all try dousing her with fish juice so that Nelson and five other cats will lick it off, but nothing works. T.D. suggests sunglasses that make everyone see in monochrome, so that no one will notice the orange, but those haven't been invented. Then, Martha gets another idea.
She tells everyone, and at the party, all the invitees have dyed themselves orange, except for Ronald, who runs off screaming.
