The truth - that we lied about being pregnant.
Great.
Social suicide.
You got any better ideas? Okay.
slow down cool now moving much too fast Fantastic news! That was the headmistress at bromley brook! Bromley brook? That's in maine! Vermont.
You love to ski! Well, we could always discuss groton, If you like.
Boarding school? You said you didn't want to go back to new york.
There's another option.
Oh, no.
No, no-no.
You cannot stay here.
You need a stable environment.
Well, that's what degrassi would be.
I have friends here.
Or a friend.
But who would watch over you? Holly j's practically family.
She's only 17.
I know you've been doing really well With you're therapy, but I'll get a therapist here! And we could hire someone, day to day, like a Au pair or guardian.
I'd have to go back and forth.
You're the best mom ever! You have to get good grades.
No distractions.
Do you understand? Whatever! Anything! Mom, whatever happened was bobby's fault.
He's the one with the problem, not me, I promise.
Oh, honey, I'm so sorry I put so much pressure on you.
I better make some phone calls.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you! this is all that we said this is all that we know We move in a month.
Those boxes aren't going to pack themselves.
Yeah, I'll get on that.
Right after I finish planning a future for myself That doesn't involve the poorhouse.
You know, compared to other kids, You have a lot.
Yeah, just not the two grand I need for an sat tutor.
If I'm ever going to get to yale Ugh! What is it with this obsession with yale? Maybe it was a mistake letting you stay With the coyne's in new york this summer.
That was the first time I felt I was in a place I belonged.
Holly j, you are a smart girl.
But it's time for a reality check.
That my life sucks And there's nothing I can do about it? That you're gonna go places.
Really good places.
But maybe not to yale with declan.
Yeah, so pretty much what I said.
and all that I know is all that I'm leaving behind you can never be sure So, how are they? Is everything fuzzy? At first, but now I'm 20/20.
I just wish someone would notice I'm not wearing my ugly glasses anymore.
Did she do it? Oh, she definitely did it! Why would anyone do that? She had a problem, she fixed it.
If you could fix your aspergers, wouldn't you? No.
We should all be happy the way we are.
How do they get them in there? Okay, let's warm up with some jumping jacks! Oh, uh, sir? Oh, right.
Well, you can sit this one out.
She doesn't look any different.
Maybe it's something else? Well, someone's gonna have to find out for sure.
Holly j: Now if only declan would come visit me On my lunch break, Everything would be perfect.
You know he'd be here if vanderbilt Wasn't the fast track to yale.
Right.
Yale.
Do you like this credenza? My mom and I are looking at condos this weekend.
And you're already picking out furniture? I need to know what to tell my designer.

Thought you'd be condo shopping with fi.
My yale essay calls.

It's just, there's a lot more to getting into yale Than I thought.
There are other schools, right? Good schools.
Yeah, but you're better than those other schools.
Holly j: Is everything okay? What if I don't get in? Come on.
You're confident, you're capable.
I love that.
You're not like any of the other girls I know.
The other girls with money? The gold-diggers! Hmm Right.
Well, I better get back to that essay.
So, talk later? Sure.
Stay positive, okay? Okay.
look at the sky it's changing take a picture in my mind we're sailing I watch it fade away I'm not digging, I'm just Sharing the wealth.

Remind me again, why did we ever break up? Your dirty secret named farrah.
Right.
My parents "little arrangement.
" Well, that's not gonna work for me.
Sav, you'll tell them? Someone's home! Oh! Quick! Um Uh Here.
Back door.

Anya, come on let's just Go! Please! Mrs.
Bhandari: Savtaj? What is anya doing here? Mom.
Hi.
Uh, truth is Anya needed my french notes, And we came back here to get them.
And she was just leaving, right? We were making out.
Anya.
Sorry, sav.
No more lies.
But don't worry, mrs.
Bhandari, It will never happen again.
Oh! Hey.
Oh, what're you doing here? Re-enrolling! I start tomorrow! S.
A.
T.
Prep course, huh? Yeah.
Private tutoring.
Gotta get a leg up.
Good for you.
It's really an investment in yourself.
Gotta spend it to make it, as they say.
Well, if anyone deserves the best, It's you.
So lunch at the dot? Fewer raging male hormones there.
Sure.
So I confirmed with dave; Jenna was ground zero of hootergate.
So when do we get her back? Way ahead of you.
Watch this.
Hey, jenna.
Notice anything? So It's true.
You went through with the surgery.
Yeah, I keep hearing some crazy rumour about that.
It's obviously not a rumour.
I always thought more highly of you, you know.
And that's changed? It's desperate, it's slutty, And I'm starting to think It's all part of some crazy plan To get kc back.
wow, you are so insecure.
I'm not the one who got a boob job.
Neither am I, jenna! I got laser eye surgery.
See? No glasses? Oh Uh huh.
Oops? If I wanted kc back? I wouldn't need fake boobs to get him.
Want me to tell the whole school I made it up? They can think what they want.
Ms.
Dawes: Okay, we'll finish up tomorrow.
Anya! Wait up.
it's okay, sav.
You don't have to apologize.
Yes, I do.
I shouldn't have lied to my mom.
But you did.
Again.
We are bad for each other, And until you learn to stand up to your parents, That's never gonna change.
Anya, come on.
I'm sorry.
Good luck, mr.
President.
You know, it's probably not too late To transfer back to music.
sunset sang the sweetest tune just the song he wrote for his true love the moon Thanks.
Okay, so I've narrowed it down to three options.
Are you sure you want a condo In this one horse town? I like it here.
This city, this place, degrassi.
Everything is perfect.
Ugh! Except for the coffee.
But seriously, I only have one friend in the whole world.
I'm so lucky that it's you.
Yeah, I'm lucky, too.
That's weird.
What, not enough closet space? No, I, I just Don't remember making an email transfer.
Well, you are a frequent online shopper.
Yeah, but I keep track.
When would I have? How much was your s.
A.
T.
Course? Mm, I'm not sure.
A bunch.
I told you my password.
Did you do this? No! yes.
You stole from me? Borrowed.
I really thought I could pay it back Before you noticed.
I didn't have any other way.
How could you do this? It was a mistake.
It was a huge mistake.
After bobby, I came here because of you.
You were supposed to be the one person In the whole world That I could trust.
But you used me.
Why, holly j? I'm broke.
You don't know what it's like.
Yeah, well, the saddest part, If you had just asked, I would've given you the money.
And a 9-9 for wiping that grin off her face.
It was pretty satisfying.
I hardly recognize you any more.
And yet, so few people have noticed How I really changed.
Maybe I should just, I don't know, Go back to the old me.
Uh, no way! Give me those.
Oh! My glasses! I think they're dead.
It-it's okay.
I, uh, I don't need them any more.
Got laser surgery.
You have pretty eyes.
Thanks.
I'll, uh, see you around? I guess you will.
Uh-oh.
I've seen that look before.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
New locker.
So I guess you're staying? I called you a million times last night.
I'd still rather be here.
Don't worry.
I didn't tell declan.
Thanks.
Please, fiona.
Look, I know I made a mistake, But you have to forgive me.
Why? Because we're both lacking In the friend department.
We need each other.
so that money thing.
That was just Bad judgment, right? It'll never, never happen again.
And I'll find a way to pay you back.
I know a way.
$2000 divided by minimum wage You owe me about 200 hours of your time.
Oh.
Okay.
Good.
So, I'm gonna sleep over tonight.
Too many nights in a hotel.
My place? With all the boxes? No biggie.
Oh, another thing! I'm transferring into your history class.
Oh, and calculus.
Do you have french this semester? Yeah.
Why? Switch it to next, so we can help each other.
Sure.
You got it.
Walk me to class? I'm starting to feel pretty good about this year.
