Helene joins in, but she has her own goals: she hopes to advance her influencer career. She wants to use the money she earns from sponsorships to keep her parents from having to sell their house and move with her to another city. Helene gets a magical animal, the cat Karajan from Paris, who expects to live a luxurious life. At the same time, Silas, Jo’s best friend, receives Rick, a vegan crocodile, as his magical companion. Silas tries to impress Helene. He robs two classmates so he can afford a designer T-shirt, which not only causes tension between him and Jo but also gets him into trouble with Miss Cornfield. Helene learns that fashion designer Maja Malakara is holding a fashion show at the Natural History Museum and sees it as a chance to make her channel even more successful. But it takes place on the same day as Forest Day. Helene persuades a majority of the class to opt for performing at the fashion show. When it turns out that the local forest is to be cleared to make way for a hotel, the students find a compromise: they will sing a song for the forest during their performance and collect signatures against the development project. At the Natural History Museum, it turns out that Silas is a huge dinosaur fan. Rick then secretly steals a bone whose proper place in a large dinosaur skeleton had not yet been found. Silas does not want to get into trouble again, so he decides to break into the museum to return the bone. At the same time, Helene decides to break in too, so she can leak Malakara’s new collection on her channel. Silas and Helene run into each other, and the skeleton collapses. To protect their friends and save the performance and the forest, the whole class helps put it back together. In the process, Silas absent-mindedly places the bone in the right spot. Helene decides not to post the leak after all, because then the whole event would be canceled. At the performance the next day, what Helene and Silas did comes to light, but they are forgiven, and Silas is celebrated for his discovery. Helene’s parents decide to stay in the city and move only to a smaller apartment. The performance is a great success, including on Helene’s channel, and the forest is saved.
