Sandy, Seth and Ryan have fallen behind in their housework without Kirsten taking care of them. Three bachelors without a woman makes for a stinky fridge.
Marissa and Ryan are the subject of a petition by the school’s parents—to get them expelled. A new Dean of Discipline, Jack Hess, has it out for them, but the board only wants Marissa out. In order to keep Marissa’s spirit alive, Summer battles it out with a super psycho in attempt to become Social Chair. She gets the rest of the social committee to agree with her plans for a kick-off carnival for the year and it is a huge success.
At least, until the super psycho strikes back at Summer by reporting Marissa’s presence to the Dean of Discipline. The dean manhandles Marissa in order to piss off Ryan enough to make him punch the dean, thus getting himself kicked out of school as well. Something is creepy about Jack.
Jimmy Cooper. Ah, he hasn’t changed much and still seems to be scheming when it comes to money. He meets with a man at the yacht club a few times about a financial arrangement, but Jimmy manages to borrow $100,000 instead.
Kirsten decides that when she checks out of rehab she is going with her new friend, Charlotte, to a cabin on Lake Arrowhead. At first I thought Charlotte was going to attempt to skank up on Kirsten, then Sandy, then both. But no, she just plans on pulling Kirsten down. Being unsuccessful in her recovery, Charlotte doesn’t want to see Kirsten succeed or some reason. Be sure to watch out for that deceptive character.
Marissa’s hair is finally looking good this season, but her wardrobe still needs some serious work. Ryan’s short hair makes him look younger—perhaps a way to make us buy Ben McKenzie is a high school student. Summer, ah Summer, she’s the quick witted princess we all love. And our dear Seth? He has a stomach that isn’t a fan of carnival rides.
