Noah & Saskia - Season 1 (2004)

Noah is greeted by giggles and whispers when he turns up at school. The rumour has spread that he has a cyber girlfriend. Humiliated, Noah decides to sort things out once and for all, if only for his own peace of mind.

Saskia refuses to budge from her bedroom. Her excuse: it's casual day at school, and she doesn't feel like being judged by the fashion police. But Deb and Renee don't buy it.

Noah's world is turned upside down when his younger cousin Eddie comes to stay. A sickly child with endless needs, Eddie manages to exhaust Lena, drive Phil and Bryce out of the house, and jeopardise Noah's relationship with Indy.

Saskia finds herself in a tight spot when she has to choose between going to the snow for Renee's birthday, and staying at home to write music for the 50th edition of the Max Hammer online comic.

Bryce acquires a tent so strong it could survive re-entry into the atmosphere, and decides a camping trip with the boys is in order. But disaster strikes when a dry creek bed becomes a raging river, washing the tent away.

Saskia finds her spunky co-worker Ernesto playing guitar, and seizes the opportunity to put a band together. She bribes her ten-year old guitar teacher with chocolate, organises a jam for the next day and logs on to update Max.

Noah is secretly extremely jealous of Indy's new boyfriend, Ernesto. And now that the comic has become such a team effort, he finds he just doesn't have the motivation to do it without her.

When Ernesto volunteers to play a duet with Saskia at a talent quest, she is initially over the moon. He plays her the soppy love song he has written for her and then coaches her on how to behave in front of his family.

Noah decides to take on Max Hammer's persona, and his life immediately gets better. However, the lives of Eddie, Clive and Phil instantly get worse.

Saskia is outraged when she discovers Max is still publishing his comic after their "break up", even though he promised her there would be no Max without Indy.
