Official overview[]
Mabel reveals her fashion secrets to the world, including FLASH MAKEOVERS![1]
Synopsis[]
The episode starts off with smoke rising, and Mabel is heard coughing. Once the smoke clears, a CRT TV is shown blown up with a bunch of glow sticks inside as Mabel says "Wow. I'll definitely never be allowed to do that again. Thanks for watching Mabel's Guide to Home Pyrotechnics; See you next time!" She then puts her arms on the table and screams as she gets shocked. Next, the introduction plays and a montage of Mabel wearing sweaters plays. Mabel says that everyone wants to look as great as her, but most people don't have time for fashion in their busy day to day lives; so she, Candy, and Grenda created FLASH MAKEOVERS! The girls then go around and give flash makeovers to Soos and Grunkle Stan. Finally, as a challenge, they give one to Old Man McGucket by covering up his face with his beard and drawing a new face on the back of his bald head. They then have McGucket walk backwards, which scares a passerby.
