With only twenty four hours before the dance finals, a mixture of nerves and excitement fills the chatroom. Having worked towards this day for the past six months the pressure is on, especially for Jackie. Forbidden to dance because of study commitments, this is the one opportunity she has to prove to her father that she can combine dancing and schoolwork. But she's too scared to tell her father about the final because she believes he'll refuse her permission to participate. Ally and Emma however come up with a plan. They manage to get both of Jackie's parents to attend the final and watch their daughter perform a flawless routine with her two friends. Ally and Emma are barely able to contain their excitement but Jackie's quickly dismayed when she sees her father leave the venue clearly upset. Knowing she has no alternative, Jackie has to summon up all her courage and confront her father and tell him the truth about what she's been doing - hoping that he'll understand and be sympathetic. But she knows that it will be an extremely difficult discussion and the outcome very uncertain. As well as this, all three girls now have to come to grips with the fact that the chatroom is about to close down and their ability to travel between each other's homes and countries is going to be taken away forever. After six glorious, exciting and adventurous months, it's a sad moment for them. At the same time, they can't help but acknowledge that they've enjoyed a remarkable experience together - one which they'll never, ever forget.

Ally's school is holding a 'formal' dance and she's not looking forward to it. The whole idea of getting dressed up for an event she doesn't want to attend is bad enough but even worse, she doesn't have a date. Emma and Jackie promptly go into match making-mode, persuading a surprised Dan to ask her. Before Ally knows it, she's backed into a corner that she can't get out of and has no option but to unenthusiastically accept Dan's invitation. In spite of Jackie and Emma's enthusiastic support, Ally becomes increasingly convinced that the event ahead has all the hallmarks of turning into a major disaster. Come the big day and a very nervous Dan arrives to meet a very reluctant Ally. Things suddenly take a dramatic turn however when the Henson's prized stallion escapes into the bush. Instinctively, Ally and Dan -still formally dressed for the dance - rush to the stables and jump onto the two nearest horses.

Ally and Emma are left very disenchanted by Jackie's attitude and a growing tension starts to appear between the girls. The situation gets worse when Ally unwittingly comes across Jackie's diary and -unable to resist taking a quick peek - is shocked to see that Jackie has written some scathing comments about her and Emma. Oblivious to the discovery, Jackie can't work out why her friends become increasingly distant from her. In an attempt to get some answers, she turns up at Emma's house only to find Emma in an embrace with Nicholas. Seeing that Emma has stolen her boyfriend, Jackie is now the one who's shocked. With their friendship in tatters, Ally, Emma and Jackie are all in a quandary. They know they have to do something to rectify their situation - and soon.

Emma needs help because she's delayed doing an art class assignment until the last minute. As the task requires her to create a work in the style of another culture, Ally lends her an Indigenous Australian dot painting given to her family as a gift. Grateful, Emma takes the painting, intending to use it as inspiration for her own artwork and promises Ally that she'll return it the following day. But Emma loses track of time and ends up handing in the dot painting as her own! Impressed, her art teacher places the painting on the classroom display board and asks Emma to give a dot-painting demonstration later in the week. Now Emma is really in trouble. Not only does she have to get the painting back to Ally before her father sees that it's missing, she has no idea of how to do a dot painting and so will be found out as a fraud. When she reports her dilemma to Ally, her friend has no hesitation about sneaking into the school after hours and reclaiming what is rightfully her father's property. But the expedition proves futile and the girls fail to retrieve the painting. Emma realises that the only way she can sort out this situation is to do what she should have done much earlier - tell the truth. But that's easier said than done.

But people do notice and Michelle especially becomes increasingly frustrated by the girls' distracted behaviour. Josh is also puzzled when he sees Ally - who he thinks is in Australia - and Emma -who he believes is in Hamburg. The girls have to work furiously to explain their way out of this one.

But because this period coincides with 'Open Day' at the Henson's farm, Jackie and Emma are forced to travel back and forth to Ally's place to rehearse. Having to time their practice sessions in between Ally's trail ride duties, the girls use the chatroom to constantly move from their homes to the farm throughout the day. Their ability to almost 'magically' appear and disappear arouses Damon's curiosity even further and he's more convinced than ever that something very weird is going on. Damon decides to go into full-on detective mode, setting up traps and a video camera to find out the truth. Fortunately for the girls, they manage to discover Damon's plot before he can gather any evidence. But now they have to devise some compelling counter-move that will throw him off the scent for good.

She declares that she's happy to leave their troubled relationship in the past and to go forward peacefully in the future. Ally and Jackie are pleased to hear this and endorse Chelsea's stand. But Emma smells a rat. As the first day of dance classes descends into a series of disasters, she's more convinced than ever that Chelsea is out to undermine them. Things come to an alarming head when Josh unexpectedly turns up at the camp and is caught visiting an unsuspecting Emma in her room. The Artistic Director decides Emma's behaviour is unacceptable and to her dismay, she's expelled from the camp. This is bad enough but the expulsion could also result in Emma's group being disqualified from the semi-finals of the National Dance Competition.

Using a friend's vacant villa, the three girls quickly set about decorating the place as if it's about to host a party. When Nicholas arrives it looks like their efforts are successful and all goes to plan. Even when he asks Jackie all sorts of questions about the house and the neighbourhood, Jackie is able to answer quite convincingly. But the perfect plan starts to become seriously unstuck when an unexpected visitor arrives. Mrs Schultz, an immaculately dressed old lady who is the grandmother of the house's owner shows up. Assuming Emma is the housekeeper, the old woman's incessant demands cause chaos as the other two girls try to hide from her while also keeping Nicholas away and pretending to him that things are all going along normally.

So relations between the two grow a little tense as Ally tries to make sure that Dan keeps his distance from things. Matters take a turn for the worse though when Dan is bitten by a red-bellied black snake while out on a trail ride with Jackie and Emma. The girls have no option but to use the chatroom to transport an unconscious Dan to Singapore to get the medical attention he needs. Realising that this almost certainly means the existence of the chatroom will be discovered, the girls also know that if Dan's life is to be saved then that's the price they'll have to pay. With the anti-venom administered just in time, Dan groggily wakes up to find himself in Jackie's bedroom. Looking at the strange buildings outside the window, Dan naturally starts to question his whereabouts. Jackie desperately tries to convince Dan that the skyscrapers he 'thinks' he can see are really an hallucination and that he's still really in the Australian bush.

Jackie is forced to make up a stack of excuses to explain why she hasn't arrived for work at her grandmother's store. The situation gets worse though when her mother asks her to also do the shopping for dinner that evening.

The girls realise they'll have to seriously improvise if they are going to save Jackie's hide. They manage to pull off the impossible but at the end of the day, the one thing they failed to achieve was to find new costumes for their photo-shoot.

Desperate to get out of going away, Emma tells her parents that Ally and Jackie are coming to stay and she has to remain in Hamburg to look after them. Instantly, Emma's parents happily agree to stay home as well and help her look after the two girls. This was definitely not the response Emma was hoping for. To their horror, Ally and Jackie learn that they'll have to be in Hamburg ten hours per day as well as be up and about for another ten hours in a different time zone in their own countries. Not only is this going to seriously affect their training, they have no idea how they're going to stay active and awake for twenty hours a day!

Fortunately, the currents take them within range of an island and they decide to brave the depths, jump off the boat and pull it to shore using the bow rope. Finally making it to the beach they head for higher ground only to realise the tide has risen, washing their dinghy away. After trekking to a high cliff top in the hope of finding phone reception, Emma accidentally drops her phone down among some large rocks.

Meanwhile, Ally is alarmingly sent at random around the world without being able no control over where or when she goes anywhere. Finally ending up back in the chatroom, Ally watches in terror as it begins to disintegrate around her. It appears to be getting smaller and smaller, the familiar white glow gets dimmer and everything seems to be closing in on her. The source of the problem is quickly traced to a virus that's infected the phones of all three girls. But finding the cause of the problem is one thing - solving it is another and neither Emma nor Jackie have much of a clue about what to do.

But the day takes a curious turn when Jackie's in a shopping mall in Singapore and spots a teenage girl putting stolen CD's into Chelsea's bag. When she tries to inform her arch-rival about the incident, Chelsea arrogantly dismisses Jackie with her usual air of lofty superiority. Inevitably, when Chelsea tries to leave, the store security alarms are triggered and she is subsequently charged with shoplifting. Even worse, her father bans her from competing in the dance finals. Although Chelsea's exclusion would make the girls life a whole lot easier, their conscience kicks in and they decide to put their differences aside and try to help her. But when they approach Chelsea's father and tell the truth to him, he refuses to believe Jackie's story.

Unaware of this, Emma prepares to Zap herself through to Singapore. Ally and Jackie frantically try to contact her and stop her but they fail to get through. Fortunately for Emma she arrives out of sight and scurries into hiding as the repairman and Chelsea return to discuss the computer's erratic behaviour. The girls desperately try to think how they can get Jackie's computer back before the repairman pulls it apart and leaves them all stuck in Singapore.
