Sour Grapes feels alone in the world, so Strawberry Shortcake makes it her mission to prove that she isn’t.
Plot[]
While playing with Custard, Strawberry Shortcake admires the Berryworks but overhears The Peculiar Purple Pieman demanding someone to clean his store before he comes back and leaving. She starts to hear singing coming from somewhere in the Berryworks but couldn't find out where it's coming from. She asks Custard if she hears it too and both get out of the truck to search for it. Custard points out that it's coming from the Purple Pie Shop and peaks from the window to see Sour Grapes singing in the store while cleaning. She stops singing when Strawberry interrupts her and tries to deny that it wasn't her that's singing and puts the blame on Custard, she disagrees with Sour's claim.
Strawberry feels bad for Sour not knowing that she's so unhappy and Sour asks her if she has met Pieman and she understands. Strawberry asks her why she hasn't quit and she replies telling her that since Raspberry Tart and Bread Pudding are now friends with her, nobody has time for her except for her uncle. Which gives Strawberry an idea. She plans to make everyone Sour's friend. She pushes her out of the store to her friends and pretends like as if Sour said something funny. Before she could talk more Sour Grapes has seemingly vanished. She assure her friends that they'll like hanging out with her.
First, they tried meditating with Blueberry Muffin, to see that Sour has fallen asleep instead. Next she tries working out with Orange Blossom but she reaches and grabs a corndog instead. Then she joins Strawberry and Lime Chiffon's tea party but she drinks her cup and leaves immediately after. Strawberry is confused as to why she doesn't want to try despite singing that song from earlier, she gets an idea again and brings Sour to Huckleberry Pie's Karaoke stand.
She wants Sour to sing so everyone will understand how she feels, but she declines and leaves. Lemon Meringue notices this and wants to handle this on her own. She goes up to Sour telling her that even though Strawberry can be a lot but she does this because she cares for her and also tells her that if she doesn't like it when Strawberry acts like this, she can tell her and she'll understand. Sour goes to Strawberry and tells her that she doesn't like being the focus of everything and that she wants to be herself with the people she likes. Raspberry lets Sour know that she and Bread has missed her and thought she was the one who wanted to be with Pieman but she stuck with him because he's family. Lemon tells her that friends are the family she can choose herself.
Suddenly, they all hear Pieman angrily asking why Sour is with Strawberry and her friends and asks if the shop is cleaned like he asked and she monotonously tells him no and tells him that she quits. He tells her that he's the only person who understands her and Strawberry stands up to her saying that even though she may not know Sour Grapes that well, it's okay because they are going to accept her as she is. He tries to leave but trips on himself. Strawberry wants to have a group hug with Sour and she tells her friend that she's at an 11 and wants her to be at a 1.5. She understands and Lemon tells her that Sour listens eventually.
