Summary Virtual Reality ()

Year 7's and Year 8's become embroiled in a dispute over the truth of Patsy Clark's exotic life story, adding spice to their computer-based struggle simulating the English Civil War.

When Jake and the other Year 8's get embroiled in virtual reality historical computer simulations, Jenny falls out with Jake and makes a new friend of Patsy Clark. Patsy's home life, an anorexic sister in America, her father working in espionage, all seem a little unbelievable to Lucy. Other Year 7's support Patsy, and the issue evolves into a dispute between Year 7 and Year 8's. Kathy bans war-games in the CLC, but the enthusiasm for the English Civil war impresses Mr. McDonnell in the History class. Alex is involved with a "second life" type game without realizing he is chatting to Patsy who is on another terminal. Alison and Sammy make their own avatar and use a magazine to create a persona to talk to him with. Then they realize the magazine contains Patsy's fictional life story. The big Civil War battle starts in the CLC, manifesting itself as a Year 7 vs Year 8 struggle, but before long it becomes a physical affair with paper missiles thrown. Alex, Alison and Sammy restore the peace by showing that Patsy's home life was taken from the magazine. On their own, Jenny tells off Patsy for making so much trouble, but softens when Patsy tells her that her father is in prison...
