Teaser
	Girls bedroom: Tia has met a famous fashion photographer, Varique, on the Internet. He wants to do a photo session with her for free. Tamera is as excited about it as Tia, since this could be her big chance too...because of the strong family resemblance, as she puts it.
Plot
	Tia asks Lisa for permission to go to the photo session. When Lisa says no the girls are devastated... mostly Tamera as her dream of becoming a supermodel is shattered. She finds it totally unfair because Ray and Lisa were allowed to do wild stuff when they were their age. She fantasizes about living in the seventies and the scene is momentarily transformed to a Brady Bunch-like environment. Ray is going with Lisa and Patrice to a 70'es theme party, and Tamera sees her chance to sneak out of the house and meet Varique, pretending to be Tia. When Tia finds out she goes to the studio to get Tamera before their parents find out. Tia and Tamera realize to late that Varique is an imposter with bad intentions. They fail to escape but Lisa and Ray come to the rescue...
