Beck's Big Break

Beck's Big Break is the 10th episode of Victorious. It aired on September 25, 2010, although it was previously scheduled for early October 2010.

Plot
The show starts out with Tori and André at banana a lunch cart with Festus, and André's mad at himself that he's never been stung by a bee before. They go to join Jade and Beck to find that Beck is auditioning for a movie, Miss Fire. Jade is grumpy because she is stung by a bee. Tori is learning how to play a piccolo, but is terrible. Beck gets the part, and others are thrilled.



The next morning, Mr. Sikowitz and Tori are in class, performing lines in different ways. Robbie, who didn't get good sleep, is sleeping in class. Jade is thrilled about Beck's movie job. Beck is late for trouble with the lining, and Sikowitz's harmonica is in the boy's room's toilet. Beck says that the movie needs extras, so he invites his class with him. The only class member who doesn't join is Robbie, who fell asleep in class because he's too pre-occupied with his nightmares. The main star, Melinda Murray, is taping a scene in a fancy restaurant. Beck plays a waiter and Melinda (who turns out to be a diva) interrupts the scene to scream at him, accusing him of messing up his line. Realizing that he didn't, Tori stands up for him and gets him fired, and when she tries to save his job, gets herself fired as well.

Later, Tori still feels sorry, but Beck doesn't seem to be so concerned. André has been playing his own musical scores to various situations around the school. Jade is entirely upset at Tori and removes the batteries from André's keyboard. Meanwhile, Tori and Cat go back to the studio to get Beck his job back, and encounter Otis, a dumb security guard easily fooled by Cat, and thinking Tori is named Crystal Waters. Tori goes to apologize, but finds a man who is dressed like her because he's her stunt double. The stunt man tries to flirt with her, but when she tells him she's 16, he walks away.

On the movie set, a crew member is directed to fire an arrow at a wall on the set when Melinda says a specific line. Just then Tori goes to talk to Melinda, but she is extremely rude. That's when the crew member accidently shoots an arrow in her hand mistaking her argument with Tori for the line.thumb|300px|right Everybody seems to blame the incident on Tori,especially Melinda. Instead, the director happily congratulates Tori, claiming that the crew hated Melinda, winning back Beck's role and Tori getting the lead role. When the two meet at school, they hug, but Jade makes them stop.

Subplot
Robbie ends up having nightmares about his best friend, Rex. One of Robbie's nightmares was him in a cereal bowl and Rex, who was very large, blows snot at him. Cat suggests that Robbie should talk to Lane about his problems. Lane tells Robbie that he is bullied by Rex just with words, and decides to give Robbie and Rex couples counseling. Lane makes Robbie eat a giant chocolate chip cookie with extra gluten, and tells Robbie that he should eat it instead of Rex. After Robbie eats the cookie, he finally stands up to Rex. Robbie ends up with bad indigestion from the gluten cookie.
