Overview

Look out, Ro! Ruby's hosting a big pink slumber party!

Synopsis

I'm Ruby Booker, and the last time I hosted a slumber party, my big brother Roosevelt played tricks on me and my girlfriends all night long.

Well, it's payback time! When it comes to teaching Ro a lesson, a little lipstick and a lot of know-how can go a long way.

Bottom line? Don't mess with Ruby and her crew!
