Episode synopsis
Trexx and Flipside have the talent to get to the hip-hop top - but are chaos on a stick - and their manager, Mr. Brilliance of Wu-Hah Management, is no better. His PA Ollie is the brains and the beauty, but even she can't manage such no-hopers easily. She sets up a break-through appearance for T and F on Big-Up TV, only to find she has to baby-sit her little sister. Trexx and Flip are roped in to handle l'il Alesha and are warned not to feed her anything with 'E' number in it. Meanwhile, B-ICE and his Posse get wind of the TV gig. Rap-Gangsta 'moll' Chinaza sends her two best-pal Hotties round, armed with a dangerously additive-unfriendly bag of sweets, to divert the boys' attention. It doesn't take much usually and it takes no time at all on this occasion. So who will step into the TV breach when the guys look like not showing up? Meet the boys' best friend, the ABBA-loving Clinton...
