"Disaster Play" is the first segment of the twelfth episode of the Disney Channel animated series StuGo.

Synopsis[]

SNEAKY SECRETS! The kids have to face their deepest fears to retrieve their lost ball.

Plot[]

The kids are in their living space throwing a dodgeball around. After Chip shows off his skills, he has Pliny try next, where it's revealed that she has a "gorilla arm", and ricochets the ball around the room. It ends up rolling down a entryway shaft that apparently leads deeper into the island's depths. The kids are afraid of going, with Larry, Merian, Chip, and Francis concerned that its either the Tall Man, Lady Sally (Merian's doll), Vampires, or a shapeshifter, respectively. While Pliny calms them down, Sara sneaks into the shaft and into a hidden room where it is revealed that she has a twin sister hiding there named Sarah.

Sarah, who is the calmer and more reasonable of the sisters, has been switching places with Sara on the island this whole time. They have been keeping their familial past a secret because they want to have a "big reveal" for when they are ready. Not wanting to be found out, they decide to scare the other kids when they come down looking for the ball they lost. Everyone, sans Francis, comes down and the twins get to work by successfully scaring Chip, Larry, and Merian away, or rather Larry "kills" the Tall Man and Merian gets knocked out. They realize that they forgot Pliny who manages to find the ball, but finds Sara and Sarah's hidden room.

Pliny is convinced that Francis was right about the shapeshifter, especially after seeing Sara and Sarah together and chases after the two after believing they are in league with each other. Sara and Sarah finally decide to "reveal" themselves in a hastily prepared 3 hour performance that leaves Pliny confused and annoyed. She agrees to keep their secret, partially so they can be ready, but also partially because of their weak performance. Pliny and "Sara" return to the living space to assure everyone that they got the ball back. When Francis holds it though, it turns out to be a shapeshifter that takes on her features.

Trivia[]

  • This episode implies that some of Sara's appearances in past, and possibly future, episodes was actually her twin Sarah.
  • This episode, for the most part, is the first time an actual blood relative of one of the kids comes to the island. While Tara previously came in "Sister Swim", she is not truly blood related to Merian.
  • According to Sara and Sarah's notes, Chip is most likely dating Rianne the pig girl from "Breakfast at Chippany's".
