Summary
Jenna is reluctant to go to Muffy's annual slumber party because she still wets the bed. She decides to wear a pull-up to bed, but what if the other girls find out?

Plot
All the girls in class are doing nice things for Muffy because they are trying to get invited to one of her girls-only slumber parties at her family's mansion. Jenna receives an invitation because Francine, who is Muffy's best friend, managed to convince her to invite her, but Jenna is worried.

One day, while playing badminton with Francine, she tells Francine that she thought that Muffy didn't like her that much, but Francine told her that Muffy needs to get to know her more. Jenna said that she had other plans, but then Francine told her the party is at night, and then Jenna said, "Well, maybe I didn't want to go to her stupid party in the first place!", and stormed away.

When Jenna goes back to her locker, she heard the other kids spreading rumors about her, but Buster knows why she won't go to the party: it takes place at night, and also thinks she is an alien crime-fighter in disguise. Later, Jenna appears and tells everyone that the rumors they've been spreading about her are false, but when Buster sees the ink on her hands, Jenna simply said that her pen broke, and when Francine asks if she was going to the party, she said, "Yeah... sure."

That night, she talked to her father, saying that she feels doomed after seeing her alarm which her father put on her, then says that she has done so many great things, but she still wets the bed. Fortunately, her father understands her problem, as he himself also wet the bed when he was a kid.

When the night of the sleepover came, Jenna enjoys the party, but spends most of her time in the bathroom. But when it came time to reveal secrets, she lied and said she loves George, but the next morning, even though she made it throughout the whole night without any bed-wetting. In the morning, the girls have a pillow fight, but Jenna's pull up falls out of the pillow. She told the truth to Francine that she wets the bed. Francine understands, as she used to wet the bed as well.

The next day in class, when Jenna notices that George has been acting differently, Francine assures her that her secret will not pass outside the girls, but then George shyly gives Jenna a flower, saying that his ventriloquist dummy, Wally, wanted to give it to her.
