The Story of Tracy Beaker - Season 5 (2006)

Mike creates a mini-farmyard in the back garden, complete with three chickens and a fully-grown pig. Lol and Layla feel sorry for the pig, and plan to set it free. Meanwhile, Rio is pulling out all the stops to maximise his chances of getting fostered at Elaine's Open Day.

After the boys discover a creepy looking mask during a loft clear-out, everyone becomes convinced it has mystical powers, especially after strange goings-on start to happen. Does the new girl Milly have anything to do with them?

Jackie limps back to the Dumping Ground on crutches, but she's not in the mood for anything but solitude. Tracy's gets the impression she's not wanted by anyone, and Crash gets some news which makes him take to the punch bag in a big way.

Justine helps Elaine transform herself into a chic, orderly professional woman. But soon regrets it when Elaine becomes a monster. Meanwhile, ditsy Alice arrives at the DG and Bouncer offers to stand in as Marco's Mum on Mother's Day.

Writer Cam Lawson visits the Dumping Ground, and everyone is excited, especially Tracy.

The Wellards and Rebecca think they've hit the jackpot when they find out that Wolfie is secretly loaded. They begin giving Wolfie a lot of attention, in hope they he will share his money with them.

Shelley returns to the DG and is dismayed at the bad behaviour going on. She insists that the kids spend the day thinking about their bad behaviour - boredom turns to fantasy as the kids imagine how they'd get their own back on the adults.

Alice and Layla attempt to find a home for a stray dog, but later the kids are horrified when their dream foster parents decide to take the dog home instead of one of them.

Someone has iced Elaine and Shelly is not pleased. She makes everyone stay behind until someone owns up. As, Justine was with Shelly doing homework, Justine is allowed to leave but she becomes interrogator. Justine believes it was Rebecca and notes everyone's reasons for wanting to get back at Elaine. Rebecca's motive is that Elaine walked into her and made Rebecca spill her drink, ruining her new dress. Rebecca said about Rio and Roxy's motive which was that they were annoyed with Elaine as she was calling them special and that they were never going to be fostered. ...

It's the day he's always dreaded, but Crash's friends make sure to support him in their own, unique way.

After Shelley announces she's leaving and interviewing prospective care workers, the kids take matters into their own hands to find someone up to the job.

Bouncer introduces a new menu as Dumping Ground chef, with strange consequences.

It's Valentine's Day, and Elaine and Mike have arranged a romantic disco party for all the kids, on the proviso that they all pair off for it - much to Roxy's disgust. With no love in the air, Marco and Milly spend the day playing Cupid in a series of ingenious ways, and one resident gets a comeuppance they'll never forget.

The Dumping Ground is plunged into chaos as the kids are left home alone, a toddler is left on the doorstep, and there's a locked chest which causes a contest.

Someone tries to sabotage the home's Special Guest Day, and Marco has some serious thinking to do.

As an aging kid in care, Tracy contemplates what she wants in life.

All the children are invited to Cam and Gary's big day, but Tracy is still determined not to attend.
