He also sends a text to Cyrus saying "U R Girly" which makes Cyrus insecure. Cyrus enlists Buffy to help him look and act more manly to impress Jonah Beck. Later on, Jonah says that he likes Cyrus' usual look and he meant to say "U R Gnarly" but it got auto-corrected.

She's Turning Into You

They even buy matching jackets and plan to wear them together the following day. Cyrus puts on the jacket but Jonah refuses to wear it saying that it makes them look like dorks. Cyrus walks away from Jonah heartbroken.

Were We Ever?

It's Jefferson Middle School's picture day and Jonah is very excited for his Space Otters Frisbee Team to get their first team photo. He finds Andi and other students protesting against the unreasonable dress code and he's clueless what's going on. Andi explains to him that they're wearing prison outfits to protest against the dress code because it's like being in prison. Jonah pays little attention and emphasizes on reminding Andi not to miss the Space Otters team photo. When Andi shows up for the team photo in the prison outfit, Jonah insists that she should change and put on the Space Otters jersey. Andi tells him how important the protest is but Jonah insists on how important Space Otters is for him. So, Andi makes it simple: if Jonah can tell her why she's wearing the prison outfit, then she will change into Space Otters jersey for the photo. Jonah can't remember. Andi walks away.
When the protest causes the school photos to be cancelled, Jonah comes to Andi and apologizes for being preoccupied with Space Otters. He tells Andi that they're doing a retake of the team photo tomorrow and wants Andi to be there. Andi tells him that she doesn't want to take the photo with the team. She doesn't want to be part of the team. She only joined the team because of Jonah Beck. And she does everything Jonah asks her to do just because he's the one asking. She does so many favors for him including getting birthday gifts for his girlfriend, Amber. Enough is enough. Andi needs to stand for herself and go for what she wants and not what Jonah wants. Jonah asks Andi if they could still be friends after she leaves the team but asks him if they were ever friends. Jonah is left confused and sad at the same time.

Best Surprise Ever


Jonah is still very upset about losing Andi from Space Otters. To make matters worse, Amber's friends make fun of Space Otters complaining that Ultimate Frisbee is not a real sport. Amber fails to defend Jonah. When Andi comes to The Spoon Diner, Jonah says hi to her but she blows him off. When Andi leaves the diner, Jonah follows her out. Amber tells Jonah that he only left because he likes Andi and Andi likes him back. Amber tells Jonah if Andi looks back, it means she likes him but Jonah doesn't want to wait to see. So he leaves.
