Story
The end of the school year. Milhouse , in his dreams, is already swimming in the sea, and Lisa has just received an annual almanac with photographs of all the students of the school, whose editor she herself was. The distribution of the yearbooks turned out to be noisy and hectic, everyone asks all his friends to sign his almanac. To her surprise, Lisa found that she did not have a single signature and not a single wish for the summer, and therefore there was not a single friend. Unlike her, her brother Bart is doing fine and there is a line for him to get a signature.
Flanders , due to the fact that he had the honor of being a jury , cancels his summer vacation in a house by the sea in the town of Little Pwagmattasquarmsettport and asks Homer to look after his house and rest for him, to which Homer agrees with the only condition that Ned his pond will clean it.
Marge is pleased and invites Bart and Lisa to take along for a friend's vacation. Bart takes Milhouse with him. Picking up a suitcase, Lisa realizes that neither her excellent grades, nor the microscope that she was going to take with her on vacation, will help her to make friends, and she decides not to take anything with her, not even a swimsuit.
Upon arrival at the place, the Simpsons learn that the Flanders left them instructions on what and how to do in their house. Bart , violating the requirements of the children of Ned, shakes the money out of their piggy bank, and Lisa tells her mother that “in the clutter of the assembly forgot to pack up,” and she will have to buy everything here.
Lisa, taking the opportunity to buy all her clothes again (more precisely, she planned it), changes her image beyond recognition, and goes to look for children to make friends with them. But wherever she goes, everything is empty, even in the library . Arriving at the beach , Lisa finds teenagers a little older than herself under the pier and gets to know them, giving herself the impression of a "loose guy . " Thanks to the fact that Lisa immediately helped to find a good place for skiing (in the parking lot at the library), where there are no policemen who select skateboards , she won the respect of her new “cool” friends.
Bart , by chance seeing that Lisa is in demand among “cool” guys and generally behaving “cool,” he stood on the board and began to perform tricks, to which the teenagers reacted like fop and didn’t even want to get to know him, but Lisa presented as her "stupid brother Bartholomew ."
Seeing constantly that Lisa walks with her new friends day and evening along the seashore, when Marge does not let him walk in the evening, since his friend Milhouse is already nearby, Bart is plotting a cruel meanness that can poison Lisa's life and break her new acquaintance . The plan is simple - to show Lizin’s friends her almanac, where she is presented not as a cool, “disgusting” girl, but as an excellent student, winner of grammar contests and just like a bookworm , which Bart does when new friends walked along the seashore in the evening and jumped on impromptu trampoline . New friends were shocked, and Lisa , crying, ran away.
After such a shame, Lisa was not her own and did not show great friendliness to her brother. But it all ended very well: returning somehow alone after relaxing in the park, Lisa caught friends for a trick on their car and, deciding that they just took revenge on her, rude them, but the teenagers asked to look carefully at their car, and Lisa saw that the whole car is decorated with shells, and on the side there is an inscription: “Lisa - steers” (“Lisa is cool”). The next day, Lisa returned home with an almanac, full of wishes of “all the best” and one “type” recognition of the “type” in love.
