While Dad is busy discovering the divine beauty of Nasvhille BBQ, Holly encounters Destiny, a struggling singer songwriter, who inspires Holly to persevere through adversity. After Margo tells Holly her song ideas aren’t personal enough, Holly channels her insecurity into writing a new, original song that’s a smash hit! Worried about being a CIT without her best friend Holly, Amy is disappointed to discover her co-CIT will be Savannah - Amy’s polar opposite.

Amy vouches for Savannah to Holly, getting Savannah invited to the bonfire, but when Justin superfans ambush the event, Amy accuses Savannah of sharing the secret. Robbie does some investigating to find out that the leak came from Justin himself, in the hopes of gaining publicity.

While looking for inspiration for their next song in town, Holly and Justin have a strange interaction with Farmer Dodge. When Justin starts acting different, Holly brings up what happened with her family. Heather helps Holly realize that what she witnessed was Farmer Dodge racially profiling Justin.

After hearing from Amy and Savannah that they too have experienced racism in Collinsville, Holly becomes determined to seek justice on Justin’s behalf. After confronting Farmer Dodge, Holly tries to convince Justin to join her in a protest and help write a song about what happened - but Justin wants nothing to do with it. Confused, Holly turns to Amy who helps Holly learn that what matters most is doing what Justin wants, not what Holly wants.

Oscar interrupts the creative process, eventually accusing Justin of wanting to steal Holly away from him. Holly feels like this is all her fault until some guidance from Mom makes her realize that Oscar’s trust issues are his problems to fix, not Holly’s. Dad is disappointed when he discovers Heather’s new secret passion is dance. Heather is hurt by Dad's disapproval of her new hobby, thinking it’s ‘girly’.
