ZipIt 2 - Fred Throws a Party!

'''ZipIt #2 - Fred Throws a Party! '''is a spin-off episode of the Fred YouTube series. It premiered on August 21, 2008. It is currently unlisted on the ZipIt YouTube channel.

Synopsis
Fred throws a party and sends all of his friends an IM invitation with his Zipit Wireless Messenger 2. Will anyone show up??

Plot
Fred says that he had recently won a tap dancing contest. To celebrate, he decides to have a party and invite his peers over his ZipIt. However, no one seems to be able to make it or want to make it to his party.

He ends up blowing up a bunch of balloons and using stuffed toys to represent his 'guests' and has his party; he rides a toy pony and eats snacks by himself, appearing to have fun and waiting for more people to come.

It then cuts to Fred being upset that no one came to his party after all the work he put in setting it up. To cheer himself up, he decides to sing (which also ended up being about no one coming to his party).

He dances by himself in the party room and messages his peers that they really missed out. He breaks a piñata filled with cauliflower and ends the episode riding the toy pony again, satisfied with his party.

History
This, along with the previous episode, was part of a promotion for ZipIt Wireless Messenger, who had sponsored the first season of the web series and whose product had several cameos in the web series. Lucas Cruikshank had a separate website promoting ZipIt.

Trivia

 * An official FRED episode was made almost a year later bearing the same title and similar plotline of Fred throwing a party but no one coming.
 * Although it is unclear whether this episode is part of the web series canon, it is revealed Fred had won a tap dancing contest, which is ironic due to Fred's implied lack of dancing skills in the deleted episode Fred Tries Dancing.
