92-8 Dancing Is Easy

Lily doesn't want to go to a school party because everyone will dance there, and she hates dancing. While Zari is trying to convince her, Eddy walks by and says that he'll be a chaperone at the party. He tells Lily not to be embarrassed that she doesn't know how to dance—and he even volunteers to show her how to dance. After Lily sees Eddy's ridiculous, chicken-like dance, she agrees to go to the party because she wants to see him do it in front of the school.
