Plot

Logan is in hot water when his dad discovers that he used his credit card, which was only to be used for textbooks, food, and some occasional entertainment with friends, to purchase a $327,000.00 car (for which Logan doesn't even have a liscense to drive, and was planning to use for the sole purpose of picking up women) without his permission. That's when Malcolm steps in and takes control, forcing Logan to sell back the car, taking away all of Logan's valuables, closing his bank account, and cutting his credit card in half. Without all his financial recources, Logan is completely helpless, and becomes so desperate, he allows students to throw tomatoes at him for a dollar each. Zoey, Lola, and Chase reluctantly take pity on Logan, and they attempt to teach Logan how to fend for himself without money or luxuries. When Logan doesn't seem to be learning, Zoey does Logan's laundry, Lola helps him with his hair, Chase types out his history report. This goes on for some time.

Later on, the three find out that Logan's father had given him a second chance, and had had given him his money and luxuries back, with a new credit card. As Logan had neglected to mention this to anybody for over a week, they realize Logan was deliberately taking advantage of them, and they figure out a way to get revenge. They trick Logan into using his credit card to purchase a seemingly valuable set of coins, for $100,000 from a fellow student. Again, Malcolm confronts Logan about the unauthorized transaction, but this time, Logan insists that purchase was worth far more than what he paid. The Reese family butler, Chauncy inspects the coins and determines they are counterfeit, and aren't worth more than 75 cents total, leaving Logan to face his father's wrath.

Meanwhile, Michael, being inspired by the magician, the Great Doheny, says he can get out of any difficultly tied ropes, so Mark and Quinn tie him up to see what he can do. Does he have the skills he says he has?
