It is the first day of school. Classes go well as planned until History class. The history teacher tells Greg about when he had Rodrick in his class.
Greg and Rodrick start arguing. Greg does most of the housework for his older brother. His younger brother, Manny, presumably witnesses the argument and draws a picture at school about his ordeal with his elder brothers yelling very loud that he could hear the argument. Manny's parents assume the picture is about them.
Greg finds out that his best friend Rowley was on vacation for nearly the entire summer. Rowley himself can blend very well from culture to culture. Speaking of vacations, Greg has to choose a pen pal.
After school, Rodrick does the same incident he does during the summer with his van. Greg tells him to gently brake, but Rodrick does not. When they both arrived home, Greg calls Rodrick a jerk while Rodrick himself reacts by pushing Greg out into the bushes. Unfortunately, their mother witnessed the whole scene. Both brothers have to write an apology complimented with a picture.
As they days go along, problematic events occur. For example, Greg and Rowley reconcile. They both start to be rude by breaking plates and calling Rowley’s father a woman’s scent.
A few days later, the father is angry at the teenagers hanging around in the driveway. He wants to rid of them. Then, he puts on the radio in front of the teens. The driveway is finally cleared of teens. Unfortunately, his wife complains that he is purposely trying to obliterate Rodrick’s “fans”.
However, Rodrick starts to have issues. He does not do homework properly, for example.
At the school, some people, including Greg, starts getting involved in an “Invisible Chirag” plot against a boy named Chirag Gupta. Chirag himself had once moved in June, but he moved back. Most of the plot includes pretending that Chirag still lives in where he moved. The rest of the class gets involved in the plot. Due to involvement in the plot, Greg is sent to the principal’s office to apologize to Chirag. A few days later, Greg is forced to apologize.
The next week, Rodrick holds a party while pretending to feel ill from the flu. He locks Greg in the basement for the whole night. However, one of Rodrick’s friends came up to Greg’s mother’s camera and accidently took a photograph. It was just after Thanksgiving dinner that the photograph was discovered. Greg and Rodrick also had to replace a door which said “Hi Rodrick.” on it with which unfortunately does not lock like the graffiti-riddled door. Their mother blamed both of them.
The winter talent show is coming up. Greg tries to do a play, but Rowley refuses. Rodrick also scheduled a performance during the show, but almost faced disqualification by not properly doing projects and homework again. While practicing, Rodrick invites band members to the house and does very annoying behaviour in the basement, like farting with an echo pedal.
The talent show commences. Rodrick’s band actually got to perform with kindergartener Harry Gilbertson. Rodrick’s father hated their music, so he stood outside the auditorium for the rest of the performances. Harry Gilbertson turned out to have won the “Best Musical Act” for himself. Also, Rodrick’s mother also was pointed at the camera, ignoring Rodrick’s band. Rodrick himself starts to blame Greg for the camera zoom issue.
Greg and Rodrick visit their grandfather in the Leisure Towers. Unfortunately, Greg ends up in the womens’ restroom and is pulled out. The women blamed him for being a “peeping tom”. Greg later wishes to go to France, but forgets about it.
Rodrick himself finishes his science experiment at home.
