Plot: Simon (Charlie Tahan) and Nathan (Moises Arias) are arguing about Spider-Man when Curtis (Jonathan Daviss) and Alisha (Odeya Rush) arrive at the community center. Nathan then wonders aloud if maybe he has Spider-Man powers and goes to try to climb up the side of the building to no avail. Kelly (Jaylen Barron) arrives, asking them not to tell her why Nathan's trying to climb the wall. Soon, Curtis' ex-girlfriend Sammy (Erika Tham) arrives in a rage. She blames Curtis for ruining her life after they were caught with cocaine. She is angry that he took a deal while she spent the last six months in jail. Nathan butts in and wants to know about the showers at the jail, but Curtis tells him to mind him own business for once. The stress of the situation causes Curtis to turn back time, all the way back to the club where he and Sammy were the night they were arrested.
He tries to change the events of that night several times. The first attempt ends with Sammy begins stabbed by a drug dealer. He turns back time again. The second time around he avoids all of the problems and leaves with Sammy before they get caught. He keeps his starting point guard position for Long Island State University. But when he goes to check on the other misfits at the community center, he finds that they have all been murdered by Tony. Curtis decides to go back again to keep his friends from dying. This time he saves Sammy by taking all the drugs from her and flushing them down a toilet before the cops bust up the club, keeping just enough in his pocket to still be busted for possession and be sentenced to community service at the center.
When Curtis arrives at the newly revised present time period, he learns that Sammy was never sent off to jail and that he is still in a relationship with her. He feels conflicted though as he has started to develop real feelings for Alisha. Curtis asks Nathan how to get a woman to hate him. Nathan is offended by Curtis' question but decides to help him anyways. He starts to tell Curtis what to say, but seeing that Kelly and Simon are watching and listening, Nathan whispers the line in Curtis' ear. Simon, Nathan and Kelly then watch from afar as Curtis goes to talk to Sammy again. Sammy quickly slaps Curtis across the face and she storms off. Kelly asks Nathan what he told Curtis to say, but Nathan refuses to say it out loud. Curtis comes back over with a smile on his face as Alisha asks what is going on.
Meanwhile, Sally finds Tony's credit card in Simon's locker. She decides that Simon is the weak link in the gang so she targets him to find out what really happened to Tony. When Simon is leaving the community center for the night, Sally offers him a ride home.
