New Principal Pat Corker arrives at Berenger with a spirit of optimism. Best friends Brandon Wu and Brandon Greebs quickly run afoul of Corker's new administration with their STI-themed entry to the Science Fair. Chadebra come out in favor of Corker's ban on the Brandons' project, while Tyler and Hadley struggle to balance their campaign with the responsibility of government. Crabs Fever begins to overtake the school.

Tyler and Hadley encourage the creation of a senior superlatives-themed award show in a cunning play to highlight the in-crowd's elitism. "Superlatives" hosts Chad and Debra find themselves blindsided by a wave of populist resentment that results in the creation of highly individualized, "alternative yearbooks." A brand-new, dark horse candidate for Student Body President emerges.
