Zuri and her BFF Jesse are trying out a week of ballet camp. At first Zuri can’t figure it out, until the teacher tells her to use her imagination. Then Zuri upsets Jesse when she tries her own way. Can the BFF’s remain F’s after this? 

Watching Zuri with her dress-up trunk is my first favorite thing about this – and watching the Bff’s figure out real friendship is my second.
