Episode #19 "Hard on the Outside, Soft in the Middle"
Written by Ryan Murphy

Lily takes up her latest cause…saving the life of an imprisoned lobster she's named Eddie from a local restaurant. She has saved her allowance to buy Eddie, but is appalled to find upon her arrival at the restaurant to rescue him that Mary Cherry has eaten Eddie. It seems the owner of the restaurant, Caesar Croutons, has given Mary Cherry preferential treatment because she is blonde. Meanwhile, when Sam gets a worse grade than Brooke because Brooke's paper looks "prettier," the alternative kids vow to prove a point about the unfairness of what Miss Glass calls Natural Selection. As a test, the "alts" decide to go blonde and see if their lives change. Unimpressed, the popular kids then all go brunette to prove that hair color has nothing to do with the special treatment they receive. As always, strangeness insues as the kids from Kennedy High School experience life on the other side. Meanwhile, Principal Hall asks Harrison to act as translator for an exotic new exchange student from China named Exquisite Woo, who ends up falling for Sugar Daddy. Sugar, naturally, falls hard in return.
