Kiff tries to fail at being Helen's personal assistant so she can retake her career test.
Plot[]
Miss Deer Teacher's students have taken a career test and are lining up to learn their potential future careers by having their answer sheets analyzed by a special computer. Helen suddenly bursts into the classroom and tells the class that something is happening outside, but all they see is that her car is being towed for being in Principal Secretary's parking spot. Kiff has her answer sheet scanned by the computer, but is disappointed by the career it suggests for her: personal assistant. Wanting a more exciting career, she asks Miss Deer Teacher to let her retake the test. Miss Deer Teacher encourages Kiff to be a personal assistant for a week and agrees to let Kiff retake the test if the job turns out to be a bad fit. Helen overhears them and hires Kiff as her assistant.
Kiff tries to be an incompetent personal assistant, but unintentionally ends up doing all of Helen's chores successfully. Barry, who in the meantime has been trying out investigative journalism based on his career test result, suggests that Kiff should get Helen to give her an impossible task. When Kiff asks Helen what her most impossible-sounding dream is, Helen reveals her lifelong wish to win a "Table Town Humanitarian of the Year (TTHOTY)" award, which she has lost for 400 consecutive years and even been banned from attending the ceremony for. Kiff tells Helen that she will help her win the award and that if she fails, Helen can fire her. Kiff devises a plan to sneak Helen into that year's ceremony, which is coincidentally happening the following night.
At the ceremony, Kiff hides in the rafters and pulls a lever that opens a trapdoor on the stage. Helen emerges from the trapdoor and interrupts the ceremony with a speech berating the judges and audience. As the speech ends, Kiff releases a large banner (reading "Gimme the award dummies!") behind Helen, but loses her balance and falls from the rafters. Helen jumps up and catches Kiff – but only because Kiff happens to be holding Helen's bag full of crullers – and the judges decide to give Helen the TTHOTY award for saving Kiff's life. Kiff sadly wonders if she really is destined to be a personal assistant.
The song was left completely undubbed in the Cantonese dub, the Chinese Mandarin dub, and the Taiwanese Mandarin dub.
It is revealed in this episode that Helen has been rejected from winning a "Table Town Humanitarian of the Year" award for 400 years, which would indicate that she falsified her age as 217 on her faculty ID in "Big Barry on Campus" to appear younger.
Continuity[]
This is the second time the fourth wall was broken when Kiff started dancing in the same way in the theme song with even the song itself playing before Kiff stopped in the air while she was flopping like a fish. The first was "Soup Opera".
