Tori Goes Platinum

Tori Goes Platinum is a 1 hour Victorious special. It is the 11th and 12th episode of Season 3 and the 44th and 45th overall. It will air on May 19th, 2012.

Plot
Tori wins a contest to sing the opening number at the Platinum Music Awards! But, there’s just one catch, the show’s producer, Mason Thornesmith, and his team want to reinvent her look and personality. Tori has to dress crazy and act mean. Also, Tori is not allowed to tell anyone about this, not even her friends and family, even though her friends at school are asking about it. It becomes a problem for Tori. Eventually, Beck finds out about Tori's secret by himself, because he knows that Tori wouldn't change so much on purpose. Beck and Tori almost kiss before being interrupted by Mrs. Vega. But then Tori ends up telling Mason and the producers that she can't take it anymore, which results into Mason not letting her in the Platimum Music Awards anymore. So they give Jade that chance instead because they know her from her own audition, which they liked. After Cat accidently leaves a video chat on, Jade sees Tori and Beck talking about that Tori shouldn't be kissing a friend's ex (with Beck and Jade breaking up, Beck trying to kiss Tori, and Tori and Jade finally becoming friends). Later, Tori goes to meet Jade at the Boomerang Theatre to talk to her about her chat with Beck. Jade then lets Tori perform herself, while Jade goes into the audience. Even though Tori was fired, she performs Make It In America, and Mason sees this. He was annoyed at first, due to him firing Tori, but then eventually likes it.

Subplot
Cat eats some of Mason's bibble (a British food), and then gets very addicted to it. She tries begging people for it. She gets a person named Oliver to keep her from eating bibble, with the two of them handcuffed together. At the end of the episode, Oliver and Cat are seen hiding behind a dumpster eating bibble.
