Kathleen's dreams are coming true. Scott is the perfect boyfriend - considerate, affectionate, even gives her flowers. She can forgive him if he's kind of hot tempered - he's got a lot of troubles at home, and really but she dosen't deserve it when he gets upset with her because she was talking to Luke and beats her up. Liz encourages Spike to go out with a boy for the first time since Emma was born, and she's so nervous she almost blows it.
The kids are back to school in a new building. Erica had her first ""serious"" boyfriend, and think she may be pregnant after a night of unsafe sex with her Jason. Spike's daughter, Emma goes to daycare in the same building as Degrassi high. The Degrassi gang are both fearful of initiation, and they do not know what to expect out of the older bullys like Dwayne, Tabi, and Nick. Joey and Caitlin are still going out but his priorities are the promotion of his band, The Zit Remedy, (which this season will have a new name called The Zits)
Erica decides to keep the pregnancy a secret (the only person she tells is her twin sister, Heather). She also decides to have an abortion. Heather, disapproves of this, but accompanies her to the abortion clinic anyways.Also Alexa dislikes her boyfriends(Simon) new modeling job.
