Kimberly is sleeping peacefully until her alarm goes off. Kimberly wakes up. She turns to her alarm clock and can't believe it's morning already. Kimberly reaches over to turn off her alarm and accidentally knocks over her lamp. She tries one more time to turn off the alarm. Kimberly manages to turn it off, but she falls off the bed in the process. Kimberly sits up and runs her hands through her hair. She doesn't like the way her hair feels. She climbs back onto her bed to reach for her hand mirror. Kimberly is horrified by what she sees. She tries to run a comb through her hair, but is not having much luck. Kimberly collapses onto the bed for a moment. Kimberly gets up and puts on her robe. She walks over to one of her windows and opens the curtains. It is a beautiful, sunny day and she enjoys the warmth of the sunshine for a moment. Kimberly walks away and suddenly there is a clap of thunder and streaks of lightening. Kimberly gasps at the sound and the sudden change of weather. She thinks it's weird and then heads over to her closet. Kimberly looks through her clothes and picks out a favorite outfit. It is still in a dry cleaning bag. When she turns the outfit around she is very angry to see a huge hole in it. The cleaners had burned her outfit. In anger, Kimberly tosses the garment down and walks over to her bed, planning on going back to bed. As she heads over to the foot of the bed, the ground shakes. Kimberly uses the bed to steady herself. The hand mirror falls off the bed and crashes onto the floor. When the shaking stops, Kimberly walks over and picks up the broken mirror - seven years of bad luck. She throws the hand mirror onto the bed and walks away. At the other window, is an shadowy outline of Squatt. He is laughing as he peers inside.
Squatt reports back to Rita. Baboo is standing next to Squatt. Squatt tells her it's the perfect time to get Kimberly, she's having a terrible day. Rita is pleased with the news and goes to see Finster. Rita tells Finster to make her a monster to get Kimberly. Rita looks over his display of clay monsters and declares they are perfect. Finster tells Rita he will make her one of the meanest monsters she has ever seen. Rita is still by the display of clay monsters and Finster tells her it's not one of those. Rita walks over and likes the clay monster that Finster is working on. Rita asks what is he like? Finster replies he is a horrible brute called the Samurai Fan Man. Rita yells at him, what are you waiting for?! Finster tells her one Samurai Fan Man coming up. Rita walks off. Finster places the clay figure of Samurai Fan Man into the Monstermatic. Samurai Fan Man shoots out directly to Angel Grove.
Samurai Fan Man lands safely in Angel Grove and he gives a growl of appreciation.
The storm has continued. The halls of Angel Grove High School fill quickly with students dressed in various rain gear. Kimberly walks in and she is drenched. Her umbrella is wrecked. Kimberly starts walking towards her locker. She is mortified when she hears her shoes squeaking. Kimberly angrily throws her umbrella into the trash and opens her locker. Tommy is walking down the hall and calls out a greeting to Kimberly. Kimberly is very embarrassed to be seen soaking wet, by Tommy, but she bravely turns around and faces him. Tommy teases her a little, asking her if it is a little wet out there? Kimberly is not amused and comments she is a total wreck.
