Testimonials

Actor's Intensive. Teach recalls a story from his youth about his dad putting out a cigarette on his arm. So this is what happened to John Bender? Wuss. "So whenever I need to know what pain is, I have a reminder...did I stutter?" He calls up Annie and asks her to relate a story, something meaningful. She chooses the episode to talk about her sweet 16 party and Naomi's dastardly plan. Not quite cutting it. Bender Lite wants her to go deeper and share something painful, something you would only admit under peer pressure at a slumber party. She reaches deep and pulls out...Rhonda's story and recites it word for word. Bender Lite thanks her. Annie's tiny victory is short-lived when she sees Ethan standing at the door. D'oh! Strike two!

Annie runs after Ethan. He can't believe she violated Rhonda's privacy by using her experience as material for class. Annie tries to explain that she panicked. The teacher kept asking her to "go deeper" and then thought of Rhonda's story. Ethan reminds Annie that it's not a story, it's her life. He can't even look at her so he leaves.

Restaurant. Dixon arrives and is wowed by Silver's hideous 80's throwback outfit. She told him she'd one up the dance. They're at the best restaurant in the city and she ordered them a special dessert. He stares at her in awe. Easily impressed much there, Dixon?

Poolside. Naomi grabs a table and waits for Liam.

School Dance. Navid and Nika arrive. She's never seen her parents make such a fuss over anyone like that. He thinks it's the fact that their parents go to the same synagogue. I guess their synagogue has a laxed view on pornography. Nika thinks it has nothing to do with his pornographer dad, it's all him.

Restaurant. Dixon thinks eating Becky's food will be hard now that he's had a taste of the good life. Ungrateful brat. The waitress comes by to take their dessert order. Silver tells her that she ordered the molten chocolate cake with the concierge. The waitress doesn't have their order and, as luck would have it, they are all out of cake. Which is weird since Naomi mentioned earlier that they cook it during the meal. Hmmm. C-O-N-spiracy?

Silver freaks and starts yelling at the waitress to get them cake. Dixon, ignorer of obvious warning signs, asks her why she's so upset. She wanted the night to be perfect and now, because there's no chocolate cake, it's ruined. I can totally relate. I find that frosted chocolate mini-donuts are an acceptable substitute. Dixon talks her off the ledge by telling her that it's perfect because they're together. Gag. He gives her his V-day gift, a silver ID bracelet with her name engraved in block letters. Cursive would have been better but she loves it anyway and they kiss. Silver gets another one of her brilliant ideas and says they should get a room. He agrees. Duh.

School Dance. Rhonda walks in looks around until she finds Ethan. She asks about Annie. He doesn't know nor does he care. Harsh. Rhonda felt better after sharing her trauma with Anthan and decided that she could handle it. Annie calls Ethan's cell and he ignores it. We cut to Annie, hysterical and crying to Ethan's voicemail. She begs him to call. She's ashamed of herself and asks for forgiveness. Then something else could have happened but I was busy reveling in her pain.

Hotel. Silver grabs a condom and hungrily turns toward Dixon. He asks if she's sure she's ready. She's never been more ready for anything in her life. She pounces on him. Goodbye, Hymen! It was nice knowing ya!

Montage (Even Rocky Had A Montage). Nika and Navid enjoy the dance. Naomi sits alone, upset, waiting for Liam. Annie holds her phone, waiting for it to ring. Pregs turns on a old, black and white movie at home.

School Dance. Ethan walks Rhonda to her car. She had a good time. Him too, it was just what he needed. She wishes him a good night and moves in for kiss. After a good 5 seconds, Ethan pulls away. "But you looked at me like that." He told her to be honest so he should be honest with himself. He apologizes for giving her this mysterious look he didn't know he gave her. She leaves, upset and possibly humiliated, but at least Annie has more pain to draw from, right?
