When everyone gets an invite to Eve's party but her, it's mission invite. Amanda later realises that it's better to be kind.
When Amanda finds out she's the only one in Year Three not invited to Eve's birthday party, Amanda makes a plan. With the help of the Dolphin squad, she tries to win herself a purple invitation before the week is through.
