Plot
With the Halloween dance coming up, Dawn wants to ask Mack to the dance but she's scared because of her terrible dancing. After Mack asks her out, she tries to learn how to dance but she's just too bad at it. So, she decides to avoid dancing by wearing costumes that will make it almost impossible for her and Mack to dance. During the dance, Mack figures out Dawn doesn't want to dance with him. Dawn later explains that it's because she's a terrible dancer. Mack confesses that he's bad at dancing too. So, they both dance in their own wild way and have fun.
Meanwhile, both Dicky and Ricky want to ask a girl out. Dicky knows he can get any girl, but Ricky is worried that he won't be able to get any girl to take him to the dance. So, he asks Dicky to teach him how to be like Dicky. Ricky dresses up like Dicky and starts acting like Dicky. This makes Scarlett want to go to the dance with him. But Dicky wanted to go to the dance with Scarlett too. They both ask Scarlett to choose, and she says yes to both of them, making things even more awkward. During the dance, they finally get Scarlett to choose. She chooses the real Dicky but Dicky declines for the sake of Ricky.
