    Buddy is volunteering at a hospital and runs into the star basketball player of her school. He's there for a broken leg, but Buddy overhears the doctor saying there may be cancer as well.

    Annie wants to beat rival Emmy Sheldon in the school election. She uses an offbeat tactic to try to win votes, but it doesn't go quite as planned.

    This episode is exceptional as the athlete storyline was done so well, thanks mostly to guest star Michael Biehn. It's also great that one plot line is dramatic and downbeat and the other plot line is more lighthearted. It also doesn't hurt to have a monkey dressed in shorts playing an instrument.
