Plot
The episode starts with Skyler and Sunny showing off their care packages sent from home, with Poppy chiming in afterwards. She reveals her gift was a picture of the shore from home, something Poppy loves deeply. She is then interrupted by Violet who comes in to see everyone else's gifts. During this however the girls realize that Poppy is rather upset and homesick, with her heading back to her room to be alone.
All the girls are then shown in the auditorium listening to Ms. Wright, who shares that the girls have an opportunity to practice their runway walks. In the same way she would for the real show Poppy is in charge of playing music, however she becomes so sad and distracted she accidentally plays beach waves. She then corrects this and the girls begin to walk the runway, getting critiques along the way. Poppy then goes last and her friends are shocked to see how down she is, something they want to fix.
Thanks to Amaya's idea, all the girls team up to start decorating Poppy's dorm to look like her painting, adding wall decals and everything. While they're doing this Sunny is put to the job of distracting Poppy, something she nearly blows the cover of. Eventually the girls are done and Poppy see their work, being very impressed. She does however ask why no one else seems to be homesick, only for everyone to express their feelings. They then all rejoice and Poppy feels more at home in her dorm.
