Episode notes
Fifteen year old Melbourne teen Rachel Barber was thriving. The bubbly and popular teen with the striking green eyes had a loving and caring family, a boyfriend who adored her and was pouring all her energy into her first true love - dance. What Rachel didn't know was she also had an admirer, Caroline Reed, a family friend, who was bitter and jealous of Rachel's looks and the life she was carving out for herself. So, rather than come up with a plan to thrive like Rachel was, she decided she was going to become Rachel.
