Synopsis

When Jude just can't seem to break up with his new clingy girlfriend of three dates, Rita, Jonesy offers to step in and do the dirty work for him. Jonesy is so good at delivering the hard break-up news, he decides to start a breaking bad news service for teens. For the low price of five bucks, Jonesy will break whatever bad news needs to be broken- everything from telling someone they have heinous halitosis to giving fashion tips and personal grooming advice. Business is positively booming, and Jonesy is reaping the financial rewards- until he gets his toughest assignment to date. Stone, Nikki's new boyfriend, hires Jonesy to break up with Nikki for him. Caring too much about Nikki to hurt her, Jonesy gives Stone a full refund and fires himself. Meanwhile, Jen loses her keys in the strictly off-limits territory of the ne'er-do-well Escalator Girls, and is forced to make a hard decision: face off with the Escalator Girls once and for all, or live in the mall forever. Caitlin is hell-bent on getting the last combination foundation/concealer/bronzer from the hot new makeup line Smash-Face. Sporting her new, tanned, khaki-colored skin, Caitlin is on cloud nine until she breaks out in a face full of horrible zits. Trying everything from facials to acupuncture to get rid of them, Caitlin is finally forced by Nikki to throw out the incredibly expensive compact.

Production notes

6Teen is an animated situation comedy about six 16-year-olds set entirely in a gigantic shopping mall. Don't expect to see any teachers or parents in this aspirational show for tweens. From horrible bosses to hideous uniforms, The Mall provides these characters with the perfect venue to test their wings while leaning on each other for support and friendship.
