Summary
Li started posting video blogs in order to make friends. She says that because of the strictness of her Religion, she is not allowed to play or associate with people of different faiths. Alondra started posting video blogs in order to figure out how to join the Hymn of One and become famous. Chandra, a girl whose confidence is only outweighed by her bitchiness, started posting videos telling the other new girls that she has been chosen for the ceremony and not them. Chandra sponsers Alondra into the Hymn of one, even though Liandra offered several times beforehand. After joining the Hymn of One, Alondra was overwhelmed by friend requests on MySpace, and she and Chandra devised a way to "trim the fat." Li auditioned, and although a girl named Danielle won the top spot, she still managed to join their clique. She was immediately put to work doing various odds and ends for Chandra and Alondra. Strangely, Chandra then deleted her accounts and videos without explanation around this time.
By the time of the 5on5 Season Finale, Alondra's singing career was taking off. Unfortunately, she was in a car accident and hospitalized when her debut single topped the charts. Soon after, she was mysteriously moved by the Hymn of One to an unknown location. Li posted a video expressing her concern for Alondra's well being. She also said how she was leaving the clique because it was distorting her eternal song. She also explained the significance of a recurring symbol in the Flock series, the Shen ring, and it's connection to the mysterious ShepherdX. ShepherdX himself posted a video soon after of Chandra doing the ceremony, and apparently dying. However, he seems to save her at the last second.

Her father, who had been previously out of work, was provided vocational training and started a successful career. She herself got a Hymn of One scholarship so she could pay for college. Her sister, Sandra was very voung when her family converted to the Hymn of One, so she was practically raised in it.

She was worried until Sandra posted the video Camp is the Word, where she is safely at summer camp. Betz is concerned over her sister's bizarre behavior, as she seems to be in some sort of trance until the last few seconds where she asks someone off-screen if there's any pizza left. After leaving camp, Betz's husband, Mike, a world-renowned psychiatrist, took Sandra to Los Angeles to the Hymn of One Center for a retreat.
In the 5on5 Season Finale, Betz discovers that Mike has been performing tests on Sandra that were, in some cases, mind-altering. She confronts Mike about this, but he simply tells her to Sing her Eternal Song." Betz angrily responds: "I Will Not Sing My Eternal Song!"
