Case of the Missing She-Geek

In this story Lizzie manages to insult someone who happens to be a fan of a particular TV series, and by insulting her she also indirectly insults the others in the school who also like the show. People start being cold and nasty to Lizzie, but there's something that's more significant, and that is that the girl Lizzie insulted has disappeared.

Lizzie wanted to apologize to the girl for what she said, but try as she may she can't find a trace of the girl anywhere. Even with the help of Miranda and Gordo they are still unable to find any clue as to where the girl has gone. The last chance is for all three of them to attend a science fiction convention, in costume, something which bothers Lizzie and Miranda quite a bit as only “geeks” would do such a thing.

They attend the convention and find out the missing girl has been under their noses all along. They also find out that putting other people down as being “geeks” really isn't the right thing to do, and that the interests of people who are considered “geeks” shouldn't just automatically be ignored as being beneath the popular and “right” students.

Another mystery not based on a specific episode, this one has more of a message to it, in relation to the idea of not putting people down simply because their interests are not the same as yours. A good story.
