Driving Tori Crazy

Driving Tori Crazy is the ninth episode of season three of Victorious and the 42nd episode overall. It aired on April 14th at 8/7 central.

Plot
A movie shoot causes a traffic jam that interferes with Tori's morning commute and she is forced to take the long ride to school.Tori rides with Trina as usual, but the drive is made unbearable when Trina forces her to shave her legs and armpits, and turns the heat up to 120 degrees so she can do her special yoga. Because of this, Beck offers to drive Tori the next day. However, the drive with Beck, who drives a 1967 Pontiac GTO, also annoys Tori because his car is crowded with four Northridge Girls who flirt with him constantly and annoy Tori. The third drive is with Andre, who drives what appears to be a 21st Century Dodge Charger. Unfortunatley, his Grandmother hides in the back and spoils the ride for her with her usual antics.The fourth ride is with Robbie, who drives a pedal car. Tori is desperate enough to accept Jade's offer of a ride. She drives her out to the desert and has a shovel in the back of the car. When Jade starts singing a creepy song, Tori is pushed over the edge, and jumps out of the car. Jade says to herself, "Maybe next time," Implying that she may have wanted to bury Tori. The sixth and final ride is provided by Cat, who gets a discounted party bus, specifically a 2002-2007 Ford F-550. Tori pleads with Cat not to tell anybody about the ride, but she does so anyhow. Once on the bus Tori and her friends realize the driver of this bus is Dr. Rhapsody, a has-been rap star of the 1990's. The Dr. offers to play his one-hit wonder Five Fingaz to the Face, specifically the karaoke version, and all the seven teens plus Rex spend the rest of the ride singing and dancing along and enjoying the rest of the ride to school.

Subplot
Cat becomes obsessed with a new app called "Tap It" which provides coupons. She buys C Batteries, and a Bag of Rags and passes them out to the other kids at school. She ends up getting Tori and the gang a ride to school when she finds a coupong for 90% off a party bus ride.
