Full Recap

Victor has gotten the chance to be on “Hello, San Francisco”, and do a cooking segment on it. Victor is excited about it until he panics and decides to cancel out, so Raven pretends that she’s had a vision and tells her dad that she saw him on the show and he was doing great. But when she really does have a vision about him being on the show, it’s far from great. At the same time, Cory and his new friend, Miles (Steven Anthony Lawrence from Even Steavens) from Florida have decided that they are going to win Chelsea and Raven’s love through hypnosis. They can’t hypnotise the girls, but they do hypnotise someone else - Victor. This doesn’t seem to be a problem until they realise the word that makes his go to ‘sleep’ is San Francisco, which is a word frequently used on the show, and they don’t know what the wake-up word it, because Miles is the only person who knows it, and he‘s left the house. Raven and Tanya realise that seeing as they can’t wake Victor up, they’re going to have to stall the segment as much as they can, but when they can’t stall any more, they have to be his assistant chefs, and portray him as The silent chef who lets his food do the talking. Miles comes back to the Baxters with the wake-up word, but he tells them he’s only going to tell them the wake-up word if Raven kisses him. Raven uses a fish to make Miles believe that she’s kissed him, and they wake Victor up, so he can have his first spot of cooking fame after all.
