Penny's world is turned upside down when two new kids, Maya and her brother KG, move into the neighborhood and immediately re-shuffle the fragile status quo. Maya, who personifies "wokeness," deems Penny (and her friends) unworthy of her friendship because she considers them too superficial. Penny, desperate to prove her wrong, finds herself on the wrong side of a scheme to free a giant panda from the local zoo. Meanwhile, Dijonay, LaCienega and Zoey are vying for the affection of KG.

Oscar forces Penny to play basketball against her will.
