Zoey 101: The Curse of PCA - Premise

Premise

After bringing up the legend of a former PCA student named Charles L. Galloway who fled to the wilderness above PCA at a place called Redstone Gulch because of an extremely hard test that drove him insane, Zoey and the gang decide to go and check it out for themselves. A boy named Lafe agrees to take Zoey and the gang to the spot where Charles is supposed to have disappeared(the only way is by helicopter). It is later revealed the only reason why Lafe agrees to take the gang is because he has a crush on Lola. Later in the episode Lola and Lafe are seen making out. While they(Zoey and the gang) are there, they find an old necklace, which is revealed to be an old PCA necklace. Using Quinn's special binoculars, they manage to read an inscription on the back. It turns out to be a necklace that belongs to Charles L. Galloway. Logan thinks that if they show people at PCA the necklace, they'll become PCA legends, but when the gang refuse to let Logan keep the necklace, he steals it and puts it in Zoey's backpack. As they head back to PCA, a violent thunderstorm hits, forming a mysterious green cloud which follows them. While running, Zoey falls and breaks her ankle, meaning Chase had to pick her up and carry her back to PCA. Once back at PCA, the pair meet with the rest of the gang who discuss what the green cloud was, finally agreeing it was a ghost, and when Chase takes Zoey to the nurse, Zoey begins to see paranormal things. The ghost attacks Chase, Zoey and Stacey Dilsen who are all in the infirmary, and locks the door trapping them, despite Michael's numerous attempts to get them out. Finally, they get out and are followed again, until Quinn makes two glowing orbs. Trapped in the classroom, they were due to have the important test in the next day. Zoey and Quinn throw the orb at the cloud, and it disappears but then reappears again. After taking the necklace back to Red Stone Gulch, Zoey, Chase, Michael and Logan have to rush back to get back for the important exam. When their strict teacher demands to know why his classroom is in such a mess, the gang have to own up, saying it was the ghost of Charles. The teacher however, who taught Charles 50 years previous, shouts that it was just a story and there was no such thing as ghosts. Charles Galloway then attacks the teacher, spinning him in circles, to which he cancels the exam.

Famous quotes containing the word premise:

    We have to give ourselves—men in particular—permission to really be with and get to know our children. The premise is that taking care of kids can be a pain in the ass, and it is frustrating and agonizing, but also gratifying and enjoyable. When a little kid says, “I love you, Daddy,” or cries and you comfort her or him, life becomes a richer experience.
    —Anonymous Father. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
