Clarissa Explains It All

S05E05 Alter Ego

Clarissa and Sam arrive at a party in eye-catching, edgy costumes. Clarissa sports a wig, a tattoo, and a nose ring, adopting the persona of Jade. At the gathering, she becomes smitten with a charming guy named Paulie, but she’s left uncertain whether his attention is directed at her or her alter ego, Jade. Meanwhile, Ferguson stumbles upon a stray cat and names him William F. Buckley, going to great lengths to keep his parents from trying to find the cat’s actual owner.
