In an effort to steer Gigi away from Flash, Johnny sets her up with Ira's new client, Jim Fillmore, who has started a musical and fashion movement called "Norm-Core". But Jim turns out to be way too much like Johnny, and Ava says Gigi only wants Jim as he reminds her of her dad, so Johnny decides Flash is the lesser of two evils. Meanwhile, Rehab and Bam Bam are frustrated over the way the band's earnings are dispersed, and decide to start their own musical movement called "BeastCore".
