Amaya Raine is ready to shine at Rainbow High!
Amaya wants to make a good first impression with her new group. But when she finds out she’s taking Bella’s spot, she gets even more nervous!

Plot
The episode carries on from the previous one, with Amaya entering the classroom. Still being in shock from Bella just leaving, the girls are angry to see Amaya and leave her with an awkward feeling. Sunny tries to diffuse this and introduces her to everyone, with Jade and Ruby being the most upset. Excluding them, the group carries on and continues working on their runway project, with Amaya showing Skyler some of her designs.
While they work, Ruby and Jade talk about their feelings, with the school's bell going off. Realizing Bella might still be at school, they rush to see her, with the rest of the girls tagging along. They go to the dorms and see Bella packing her bags and crying, making all the girls run up to hug and comfort her. Amaya stays behind however, and Violet even gives Amaya a quick interview for The Vi Life, with Bella interrupting it.
Feeling replaced, Bella approaches Amaya and makes her nervous, with Amaya swearing she didn't know she'd be a replacement. Bella ignores this and starts loading her stuff on the elevator, with Jade giving her one last goodbye and letting her know she'll never be replaced. She hits the button and the door closes, meanwhile Ms. Morton approaches the girls to see how things are going. She also reveals Amaya is taking Bella's dorm and spot on the team, making the tension rise and the episode end.
