"The First Date Club" is the 8th episode of the third season of Pepper Ann. It aired on November 13, 1999.

Synopsis[]

Pepper Ann starts to worry that a night out with Craig may be her first date with him.

Plot[]

Pepper Ann thinks that life is like sports and details a recent event in her life. Pepper Ann has finally gotten to a point where she can casually converse with Craig Bean. While heading to the Greezy 'n' Cheezy with Nicky and Stewart, she offers Craig to join them and he accepts. Nicky pulls Pepper Ann aside and points out that they are technically on a date. She thinks she is crazy, but soon becomes self-conscious about the whole thing and does not know what to say. When Craig offers to pay the check, Nicky kicks Pepper Ann in the leg, making everything awkward.

Pepper Ann insists to Milo that they were not on a date, despite him thinking otherwise. Trinket, Dieter, Tessa and Vanessa also think that she and Craig are dating, but denies it. Craig asks Pepper Ann to come see him play with his band and she takes it as a sign of friendship. As she waits to go out, her reflection convinces her to dress in something more appropriate and she makes a more flashy dress. She has an awkward encounter at the entrance at the club and only briefly talks with Craig before she finds herself scooted out of the building.

Pepper Ann returns home, saddened by the experience, but Lydia cheers her up and points out that Craig most likely feels the same way about Pepper Ann. She happily accepts this explanation and returns to school the next day with confidence. She runs into Craig who apologizes that she could not stay longer, but that he was happy that she came anyway. The two part on friendly terms. Craig's bandmate approaches him and it is revealed that he had written a song for her, implying that Craig does love Pepper Ann.
