The Gift is a stand-alone holiday special that premiered in December. This episode was pretty much the "pilot" of the second season, but technically does not belong in the second season as a whole, only foreshadowing the new plot into the second season and introducing a new character and ThinkFest. After the episode ended, the promo for Season 2 was aired. This is the twenty-first episode overall.
Sun Hi, Jodi and Corki learn the true meaning of the holidays when a blizzard traps everyone inside the school; the teens meet a mysterious new student, Linc.[1]
Jared gives Corki a painting of himself to remember him by.
Linc shows Mr. Chang that there is an elite competition Corki can compete in and if she wins she can go to the college of her choice.
Corki's dad says that she can stay at Mackendrick if she wins the competition and if she stays focused and that means that she can no longer be in the band.
Sun Hi believes that Linc is an angel.
They discovered that the true meaning of the holidays is family, faith, and friends.
It was revealed that Jodi is half-Jewish, therefore, she celebrates both Christmas and Hanukkah.
Caleb wrote a song for Jodi and XO-IQ.
This is the first time in Make It Pop to feature 3 music numbers in one episode
