IMDb
A new trending board lets Talking Tom and the gang know what their fans really think of them. But the system starts turning friend against friend and couple against couple until they're all in competition with each other to be the most popular. Will they realize what the competition is doing to their friendships before it's too late?

Plot
Tom and Angela were watching the TV show, Couples Clash, where the man couldn't correctly answer the question about his girlfriend. Angela calls them a bad couple, but realize that neither her nor Tom could answer the same question about each other. Angela worries they're a bad couple, but Hank says that they're great, because Hank could turn their exciting lives into a webseries.

Hank films the series, and the couple become popular online. Just then, Ben burns his hands on hot burrito cheese, and consulted the doctor, who said his hands can't be used for a week. Ben was worried, because he was having an anniversary with Xenon, and he communicates by using a computer.

Hank's video of Ben became viral and Ben became more popular than Tom and Angela. However, Ben is in agony because he can't use his hands. Angela starts to doubt that she and Tom made a good couple. Then, Xenon called Ben. However, she couldn't hear Ben because he can't accept the call, so she hangs up. Ben uses Ginger to call her back, but it was clear that Ginger was only doing it to get back on the trending board.

Desperate to regain their popularity, Tom and Angela record a video of them singing a song, which didn't work out because Hank abandoned them. Ben tries "juggling" with Ginger in a baby carrier, which Hank films. Tom comes inside to find Hank filming. Hank tells Tom that if he wants to get on the popularity board, they should be more like Ben.

So, Tom steals Ben's idea. At Ben's anniversary picnic, Tom gets his hands into an ice cream pie and pretends his hands froze and Angela offers to be his arms. Ben accuses them of stealing ideas, and they get into a fight where a pie is flung at the computer where he called Xenon. The computer short-circuited and was destroyed.

Tom admits he shouldn't have been so concerned about the trending board, and that it doesn't say anything about how good they are as a couple. When Ben gets home, he conflicts with Tom about who the better couple is, and announcer enters the door, inviting them to the Couples Clash TV show.
