Arnaz has auditioned for a "Battle Of The Bands" competition and is waiting until the scores get posted. Then A-Train (Lloyd Polite, Jr.) appears and says that he will lose against his group. Then Arnaz makes a joke about his name, and A-Train says that at least he has a nickname. Spirit laughs, which catches the eye of A-Train, who asks what her name is. Meanwhile, Duane tells Flex that he wants to marry Candy. Flex doesn't like the idea because they just got back together. They have a minor "argument," which ends with Duane walking out the apartment. At Arnaz's band practice, Spirit gives him and his band new outfits, but he doesn't like them, saying that they look like "hip hop butlers." Spirit states that she was doing a friend a favor. So Spirit goes to A-Train's group and gives them the outfits she made for Arnaz, without Breanna and Arnaz knowing, which gets him jealous. Meanwhile, Flex and Duane go through "friends counseling." In the end, Arnaz's band wins The Battle of the Bands, and Arnaz apologizes to Spirit, who does not forgive him.
