Synopsis[]
Nicky and Stuart split from each other, and Milo and Gwen also go their separate ways. Nicky is distraught, and Milo cannot forget Gwen. Then Pepper Ann has a super-good plan. Milo and Nicky should pretend to be a couple in order to make Stuart and Gwen jealous. However, both play this role almost too well, and they spend each free minute together.
Plot[]
After getting into an argument, Nicky and Stewart decide to break up. Pepper Ann attempts to console her, but she claims that she is feeling better. Milo does not think he can stand the thought of Gwen breaking up with him, but she unexpectedly does. Soon, Milo and Nicky begin to feel sad over their respective loved ones dumping them. Pepper Ann then gets an idea; pretend that they are dating so that Stewart and Gwen will come running back to them. This means that Pepper Ann needs to not see them for a while and is later mocked by a child for being a "lonely girl".
Milo and Nicky proceed to walk off together. At this point, the two of them come to a realization that neither of them know what to do without Pepper Ann and try to make conversation. They both realize that they love postmodernism over Dadaism (which they believe is because Pepper Ann just likes to say that). They begin to enjoy each other's company which Stewart and Gwen quickly pick up on. Meanwhile, Pepper Ann begins to feel the effects of loneliness and tries to convince Milo and Nicky to drop the act, but they refuse.
Stewart and Gwen finally ask Nicky and Milo if they want to get back together, but both admit that they want to think about it, much to Pepper Ann's suffering. Later, Milo and Nicky begin to miss her and realize that she is feeling lonely. However, Pepper Ann has decided to take up other hobbies, including psychic spoon bending. Milo and Nicky return and reveal that they have gotten back with their respective loved ones. Pepper Ann decides to spend some time alone, causing the the child to mock her again, but she uses her psychic powers to pop his balloon.
