The school demands Jane find the culprit or her job as a TA is at stake. Jane figures out it was Anezka and tells Petra. When Petra confronts Anezka, she fesses up but agrees to keep it quiet when Anezka reveals Jane's criticisms of her being good mom. At the party, things are awkward, especially when they play a video everyone made for Jane about how great a mother she is. Anezka makes a speech praising Petra. As the party comes to a close, Petra and Jane argue about Anezka until Anezka has an epileptic episode. At the hospital, Anezka admits what she did causes Jane to be angry at Petra for lying. At the end of the episode, it is revealed to the audience that Anezka has been faking her accent.
