Synopsis: Cassidy Barnett is not your average twelve- (almost thirteen!-) year -old. While most other girls her age are worries about school and clothes and boys, Cass has spent most of her life traveling the world with her travel TV-show-host parents. She gets to visit fabulous places and loves connecting with people via her popular blog.

But when the producers of the show decide that they want to feature Cass on camera, all of that starts to change. Now she's got to think about what she says, how she looks, and what the world is saying about her. Because like it or not, it's LIGHTS, CAMERA, CASSIDY! 

G'day, mates! In this fourth episode, Cassidy and the crew of When in Rome get a hearty dose of Australian hospitality when they head to Melbourne to film. But while Cass is starting to get used to her celebrity status, she's not sure she likes it when she realizes that most of the fans seem more interested in Logan than in her. At the same time, there seem to be a lot of technical glitches interfering with filming. What's going on? And can Cass get over her jealousy and help figure it out before it's too late?
