Zapped
About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of a girl using mind-control software on boys at her high school in the DCOM film Zapped.
Zoe's only just started at her new high school, but already she finds her existence beset by boys. Stinking, rude, unfocused, noisy, stinking boys. Did we mention they stink? Luckily, through a series of electrical mishaps, an app on Zoe's phone becomes boy-mind-control software, and soon Zoe has turned every boy in school into an unwilling puppet, and she begins to reshape the world according to her own girlish whims. If you think that sounds like a troubling premise for a movie, good instincts! Luke and Andy grapple with the ramifications of Zoe (played by a young Zendaya) gleefully shattering the minds of every boy in town, and suffer their own psychological damage at the hands of Jackson, Zapped's romantic interest whose favourite novel?... well, let's just say it might surprise you.
