90210: How Could It Hurt You If It Looks So Good?

It's May Sweeps and for 90210 it can only mean one thing...

PromNight_poster.jpg

We open up on Annie "dancing" at a raging after-prom party. Computer animated bars quickly reveal it's a PSA from Principal Wilson. West Bev has adopted a zero tolerance policy on after-prom parties serving alcohol. After the Junior Prom, some idiot got arrested for DUI and some other bigger idiots got alcohol poisoning. Get caught, get suspended, go to summer school. But this time, Ferris can't get you out of it.

It's like you're reading my mind, Show!

Naomi wonders what Annie was thinking being in that video. Harry begged her and promised to buy whatever prom dress she wanted. Naomi hopes she goes for Chanel. Annie doesn't have a date yet, so it doesn't matter much. Someone Naomi refers to as a "dorkasaurus" says hi to Annie. His name is Charlie Pinkwater and he's big in the world of stage crew. Naomi thinks Charlie can take her to prom, or maybe not if he saw that video. Annie wonders if she'll ever live it down. Of course she will. Mariah Carey got over Glitter, right?

But, like Annie, she'll never get over herself.

Matthews' Class. Students hand in their exams. Liam hands him one with a drawing of a fish. A California Horn Shark to be precise. Matthews asks why he didn't take the test. Being that the test is only 20% of his grade, he figures he'll still be able to pass the class with a zero on the test. Matthews doesn't get him. He's got potential. Why is he throwing it away? Liam thinks it's too bad that he's not from the inner city so Matthews can inspire him to win the Academic Decathlon or something. They can even make a movie about it! You know, it'd really help me out if they made just one of Liam's smart-ass remarks even remotely funny.

Majoring in English may not be for him, but maybe an correspondence art school is!

Ethan walks in as Liam leaves. Matthews has great news and hands him an envelope. Is it already time for the Publisher's Clearinghouse?

Naomi's. The movers haul in a couch and ask where they want it. Naomi and Jen give different answers. Jen thinks Naomi has a lot to learn. She wanted to buy a white leather couch for chrissakes. Naomi thinks it's the perfect time to ask for relationship advice. She tells Jen about Liam and how he likes her, or rather, she's not sure if he knows he likes her, but he's relationship impaired. She wants to go to the prom with him. What should she do? Jen advises her to pull a Lysistrata, withhold sex to get what you want. Naomi asks what to do if what you want is sex. Jen laughs at her and think she's got a lot to learn.

They're living in a post office?

Principal's Office. Harry and Kelly flirt discuss who's going to be bad cop/good cop. Is this a sex thing? Oh no, they've got a meeting with a student. Kelly will be playing bad cop. The student will be played by Liam. He makes some stupid, douchehole remark that I refuse type. Kelly cuts to the chase. His father called. Really! Liam hasn't talked to him in 10 years, what'd he say? Correction: His step-father called. He's concerned. Liam seems "detached, anti-social, not committed to this school." (Who wasn't? Just me? I see.) Kelly wipes the snide smirk off his face by telling Liam that Step-Dad's looking into military schools. Harry thinks there's still time to bring up his grades and get involved with the West Bev community. All his step-father wants to see is that he's making an effort.

Dixon and Silver are so not couple material.
Yes Silver did get on the stage and thoughtlessly insulted everyone at that prom.
But that is Silver! Dixon should know that by now. It didn't look as if anyone else took offense. He wanted her to be happy and get back to herself.
He did help with that and then he blew her off.

I read supposedly someone wil die in the finale. I guess it is too much to hope that it is Annie. boo.

I hope it's Kelly, who looks like she's got her sights on yet another man who already is with someone.
