Lara books LoliRock to perform on a high-profile television gig. When Iris tries to share the good news with Nathaniel, she is surprised to see him paying attention to Missy Robins. She later encounters Lev, the Ephedian thief from season 1, who provides Iris with a vocalextra message from her father telling her to come back to Ephedia and to trust no one. Suspecting the vocalextra might be corrupted, Talia and Auriana fight over casting the verification spell, and the vocalextra breaks. Iris tries to confide with Nathaniel, but Missy's arrival has the two acting like lovers again, which causes Iris to leave crying and deciding to go with Lev. Talia discovers Missy is wearing an Ephedian hairpin that has caused her and Nathaniel to be brainwashed. Talia and Auriana rush over to Iris at the portal entrance and warn her that someone is lying. The twins arrive and fight them, but are summoned away by Gramorr.
