| Full Episode Summary |
With her grandmother paying a visit, Miley is keen to gain her support and congratulations, especially as she is about to perform for Her Royal Highness, the Queen of England! However, Miley discovers that it is an awful feeling when she is being ignored. We soon learn that the reason her grandmother is paying such special attention to Jackson is because she sees that he is often left out in the cold, with all the attention being lavished on Hannah Montana. Since she was a professional volleyball player back in the 1960′s, she takes up Jackson’s forthcoming final as a personal hobby and spends days helping him, only to discover his parter has become sick at the last possible moment.
In the meantime, Miley, who realizes just how much she and her dad need to be there for her brother, blows off the Queen, and rushes to the school gym. There, Jackson has found a novel substitute in the form of his grandmother! She proceeds to thrash the opposition with him. However, it appears that Miley will steal the show again from Jackson’s victory, as she forgets to remove her disguise and enters the gym as Hannah Montana, causing a mob to chase her from the building. There are no hard feelings, though, when the siblings sit side-by-side and Jackson tells Miley that he isn’t angry at her – he’s amazed that she and his dad blew off the Queen to be there for him! Then the two share a touching moment. |
