Mirror in the Bathroom is the ninth episode of Season 2 of the Canadian television series, Degrassi: The Next Generation.
Episode Overview[]
Toby is sick of feeling invisible to everyone and being known as a geek, so to restart his image he tries out for the Degrassi wrestling team. At first Toby's weight division puts him up against Sean (as Toby's fat puts him on the same weight level given to Sean by his height and muscle), and Toby loses badly. What is he gonna do about it? Toby goes to desperate measures to lose weight and it may end badly.
Sub Plot[]
Meanwhile, Paige and Hazel notice Terri's sudden windfall of expensive things, like a new cell phone. They are initially suspicious and think that Terri has been stealing, until they see her in an advertisement for a national plus-sized modeling campaign. As Paige, Hazel and Spinner congratulate Terri, a boy named Mohammed walks by and mocks her weight.
