Hoping to rise above her usual B average in school, Lizzie (Hilary Duff) signs up for what she thinks will be an easy class: rhythmic gymnastics. Easy it isn't, but Lizzie proves to be a surprisingly good athlete (just like Hilary Duff in real life, by the way) and may actually win an upcoming championship. Unfortunately, her chances are sabotaged by the redoubtable Kate (Ashlie Brillault), obliging loyal Miranda (Lalaine) and Gordo (Adam Lamberg) to come to the rescue. Since this is an "athletic" episode, be prepared for the inevitable homages to Rocky and Chariots of Fire.
