Keisha's fascination with setting things on fire has gone out of control and she is unable to stop herself from setting fire to things, including the school grounds. Iqbal's real problems start, when one of Keisha's fires highlights the fact that Bromwell High has no wheelchair access.
It's Valentine's Day at Bromwell High but Natella has persuaded Keisha and Latrina to not celebrate it this year on the basis that it is a meaningless event when kids just judge people by looks.
