Overview[]
CeCe fakes a leg injury in order to avoid participating in gym class and messing up her hair. Rocky lies and says that she is having her appendix removed to avoid laser tag with the nerds. When the two are caught dancing salsa on Shake It Up, Chicago, CeCe is told by Coach Lessor that she has to attend summer school, and Rocky is unaccepted from the nerds' social group. However, when CeCe's mother comes for a private conference with the coach and CeCe, they both express interest in each other and start dating. CeCe takes this as a sign that she won't have to participate in gym class anymore, until her mom and Coach Lessor break up too soon, and she is forced off the bench to be physically tested. Meanwhile, Flynn, Deuce, and Ty take care of a neighbor's dog, but the dog proves to be difficult.
