Cory gets sucked into a world of peer pressure after his friends encourage him to shoplift at a toy store. His guilt causes him to have nightmares. Raven has a vision of Cory getting stopped by a security guard for shoplifting again, and tries to prevent it —- but, as usual, she must disguise herself -- as a security guard -- making the vision come true! In disguise, Raven is able to tell the real security guard that the other boys have been shoplifting, and Cory leaves his "friends". Meanwhile, Raven; Chelsea; and Eddie win a "mystery prize" in a soda-can contest. The audience never discovers what this prize is, but clues are dropped, ending in the prize getting ruined -— right before the audience sees it. Clues are: that Chelsea says "Our prize isn't allowed in the mall!", and Eddie saying "This one is!". Another one is Raven telling Eddie and Chelsea not to get it wet. Although never blatantly stated, "the prize" is most suggested to be a mechanical pet.

The community gets ready for their annual play, and everything goes well -- until Raven has a vision of the audience jeering the play. Raven decides to take charge of all aspects of the play, thus becoming overly bossy and arrogant. This drives everyone else to quit. Now, Raven must put on the show -- by herself!

The two realize that they are both psychic, but Ben has not told his family or friends about his "gift". Raven tries to persuade him to be honest. Ben hugs Raven because he's relieved to have confided in her, leading Chelsea to think that Raven and Ben are dating. However, Ben and Raven realized when they hugged they both saw a vision of the same thing. Later in the episode, Rayne Bow is late to her concert, locked in a closet with Eddie. Ben and Raven must kiss in order to see where the two are trapped. Meanwhile, Cory and Cindy become boyfriend and girlfriend. Cindy says it's not official until they kiss.

Unfortunately, the boys get lazy and complacent as the Baxters wait on them, and do not show up for their performance.
