"Goddamnit again, Than! Goddamnit again! You're not supposed to have a fucking boner on a nude beach!"

"For the love of God, Zales! You realize we do this about every few months, right? I mean, get a new fucking gimmick, dude!"
Deandra, about being asked to join Mackenzie again

Needing to gather more 7 people to their modeling team, the cheer squad separates in order to get the people they need.

Mackenzie and Brittnay go to the Louvre Museum where they meet with the French Club Team debating over the meaning of The Mona Lisa painting. They are able to get Deandra in their team, who complains about the repetitiveness of what they keep doing, including getting involved in random competitions and asking her for help, but Mackenzie points out she will convince her in the end so she accepts it. After chewing out Rachel for even suggesting that she should join the modeling team, they go look for the last girl they need.

Trisha and Trisha 2 go to a nude beach that Than led the guys to after their win against a french football team. They manage to convince the team to join them in the modeling competition with ease.

Deandra, Mackenzie and Brittnay go after the last member they need, which is among the Van Burens.


Tropes:

  • Alternate Character Interpretation: In universe, the French Club debates over the meaning of the Mona Lisa painting and what she is feeling. Some think she's frowing others can't decide and Belinda thinks she has some sort of dark hyper perverted desire.
  • Chekhov's Gun: Deandra's arm has been recognizably so, as Deandra lampshades. She implies that her arm will play a vital role in the modeling competition yet again.
  • Cluster F-Bomb: Brittnay lists all the swear words she knows in front of Saison's baby.
  • Dark Secret: Belinda implies she herself has, as well as Mona Lisa, deep dark desires that are frowned upon by society.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: When the Liam Neeson doll looking for his missing daughter shows a picture of her, you can see a portion of Jeannie in the photo.
  • Gag Penis: Than gets hard seeing the football team naked, to which they are disgusted to see. Trisha later compliments their ding-dongs.
  • Genre Savvy: Both Mackenzie and Deandra have worked out how each Story Arc will work out after being repeated for so long.
    • Deandra knows that, if Mackenzie came at her for help, it's because they need her to join their group in a random competition against a group of girls who angered them and are similar to them, even going as far as to point out that her robotic arm will play an important part.
    • When Deandra voices her displeasure, Mackenzie correctly points out that she will eventually be able to win over Deandra by offering copious amounts of food or some sort of poop-related privilege. Deandra accepts this and joins the group.
  • Raging Stiffie: Than and Blaine get these at the Nude Beach.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: Mackenzie gives a long description of how Rachel looks.
  • Shout-Out:
    • Mackenzie compares Rachel to a ("chubby little") Troll Doll.
    • Yet again Liam Neeson appears searching for his daughter.
  • Similar Squad: Being a Genre Savvy, Deandra lampshades that whoever the Cheer Squad is going against must be remarkably similar to them.
  • Stepford Smiler: Rachel implies she is one, saying that she is always smiling even though she has plenty of reasons to be sad. After getting painfully chewed out by Mackenzie, she simply states that she is still smiling when Judith asks if she is okay.
