Last episode gave Gigi a harsh lesson about relationships and growing up, this week she learns the hard way about music and success. Gigi gets the chance to sign a major record deal. The only problem: Rehab and Bam Bam are excluded from this deal. Blinded by the idea of fame Gigi says yes. Ava, Johnny and Flash are also willing to sell out the band for chance of fame and money (and, to Ava's delight, a complete make over for Johnny!) which leaves a hurt and angry Rehab and Bam Bam leaving the Assassins, taking their Beastcore performance of last week to another level.
Gigi soon finds out the deal is not as great as it looked. The lyrics of her song What's My Name are changed in more explicit ones to make it more popular, her beautiful live voice gets auto-tuned and she has to do a video clip dancing in very little clothing. When the producer tells them he wants Gigi to lipsync instead of singing live, Johnny and Gigi finally realize this is not what they want and quit.
I love how this episode shows another side of the music industry and how it makes a stand for real music instead of auto-tuned pop songs. The side plot of Rehab and Bam Bam was great again. Liz Gillies plays Gigi excellent, she has such charm that even though Gigi makes a lot of mistakes these last episodes you understand her and really feel for her. The next episode is the last one of this season, I'm really excited to see how it will all end for the Assassins.
