Magical Girl Friendship Squad is back with an all-new episode tonight, and we’ve got your exclusive first look. The new episode is titled Reality TV Distractions, and as you can see in the clip above, it features the lovable Red Panda creator of the universe Nut learning how addicting reality television can be. This all starts thanks to Alex revealing that reality television makes her feel content about having one blazer, and Nut soon decides to give one particular program, The Real Housewives of Idaho, a chance. At first, Nut sees all of it as rather appalling, but she’s soon completely hooked.

We also learn about the Agony Solstice, which Daisy is freaking out about when she enters the room. She’s trying to quickly clean up before the event, and while we don’t know what the Agony Solstice is exactly, we can infer that it’s the traditional meet up with her parents from the hints she gives.
You can check out the clip in the video above, and for those unfamiliar with the show, you can check out the official description below.
