When Lisa went to school in Marge's old clothes, Devin and Vidalia went to Lisa to review her outfit. The two fashion club members then declared that Lisa's outfit worked, and she was hoisted up by the children of Springfield Elementary. Devin and Vidalia then invited Lisa into the fashion club. The fashion club made plans to hang out with Lisa on Saturday, which was the same day as Nostalgi-Con, which Marge wanted to go to with Lisa. However, Lisa told Marge that she'd go with her anyway.

After finding out that clothes at Bison Swap Thrift Store were very expensive, Lisa took the fashion club to her house so they could use Marge's old clothes. She also commented that every mother would likely have an attic full of forgotten vintage clothes. Marge arrived home from the convention and got angry at Lisa for standing her up. She then made the rest of the fashion club leave the house. The next day at school, the fashion club still wanted to hang out with Lisa because they didn't ditch people for having crazy mothers. Devin then told Lisa that his mother had set fire to a piano store to get the attention of a news anchor. They then invited Lisa to a party, which turned out to be playing board games at the Wiggum house, which confused Lisa. Shortly after they started playing, Lisa was told that they were leaving.
