After the last episodes cliffhanger, Devi and Des have to face the music.
Even though Des has had girlfriends before, Rhyah reminds him that Nalini doesnt allow Devi to date.
Devis bracing herself for the worst punishment.
Like a full Ken doll.
(I guess Ben isnt down with theKen-ergy?)
Eleanor reveals she and Trent still havent had sex despite dating for over a year.
Shes the one holding out; she may be ultra-horny, but shes also a romantic.
What does she envision for her first time, you ask?
She wants a caped nobleman making passionate love to her bodiced body against an old, bricked abbey.
You know, standard stuff.
You do you, El!
As the school year rounds out, college acceptances are making their way to students.
Paxton gets the great news that he got into Cal State Long BeachandArizona State University.
Trents decidedly less psyched about the latter he didnt know Paxton might be going so far away.
When Paxton accepts the spot at ASU, Trents pissed.
But when Trent accuses her of being on Paxtons side, Eleanor calls him out on being selfishandunsexy.
(Not the kind of guy youd want in bed!)
Time for the spring concert!
That is until she has a vision of her dad sitting in the audience.
Rhyah coaches Devi through some deep breathing until she calms down.
(Is Rhyah coming for Dr. Ryans job?)
Feeling better, Devi goes back to get ready to play.
She exchanges a smile with Rhyah from onstage.
But while Rhyah plasters on an encouraging grin for Devi, shes not so confident herself.
Des says shes overreacting, but Rhyahs not hearing it.
She says hes too young to deal with that and must end things.
The following week, Des is being distant with Devi.
Ben approaches her with dread in his eyes.
He tells her what he overheard at the concert and suggests Des is pulling a slow fade.
Unfortunately, Devis in denial and criticizes Ben in retaliation.
The next day, Devi seeks reassurance from her besties that Des is still into her.
Devi and Fabiola find Des and Addison grabbing coffee.
Youre cool and all, he tells Devi, But dating you isnt worth pissing off my mom.
I mean, she still pays for my phone.
Ugh, Des, I go to bat for you and this is how you repay me?
You know, we havent really seen as much of Devis trademark hotheadedness this season thats growth!
Shes learning to pick her battles, and I totally approve of this selection.
Rhyah takes the kids to Nalinis house and informs her of what she just saw.
Rhyah says, as much as she loves Devi, she thinks the kids need to end things.
But Devi calls her out on the lie: You dont love me.
I heard what you said.
Devi points out that Rhyah wanted Dev to break up with her because she has too many problems.
Even Des wants her to admit it.
Rhyah says she doesnt want anything messing with Dess future.
She shows them the door, but not before Des apologizes one last time.
Later, Nalini checks on Devi in her room.
Devi tells Nalini how she thought she saw Mohan at the concert.
But Nalini smiles and says she sees him everywhere too.
Paxton assures Trent that hes irreplaceable and they hug it out.
(Reminder to self: never invite Trent to a clothing swap.)
His cloak (i.e.
swim parka) and loose, side-parted hair are blowing in the (somehow existing) wind.
Bro is brooding (and hot).
Eleanor, he says, upon finding her, Forgive me for I have been a dick or whatever …
I can say goodbye to Paxton because everything I need is right here.
They start making out against the set backdrop.
(This is coming from someone who once called Devi an unfuckable nerd!).
She just had to look to the future.
Or maybe to the past.
XOXO, John McEnroe.
TO THE PAST?!
And whats with the crypticGossip Girlinspired sign-off?!
What does McEnroe know that we dont?!
Talk about a hefty build-up leading us into the season finale.
Bevi or Daxton what will it be?!
Extra Credit
Whatever.
Two different sentiments, but both excellently executed.
He (Dino Petrera) does a lot with little material!
Fabiola and Addison end up having an impromptu coffee date.
Where is Aneesa?!?!
Should we start a search party?
Trents entrance into Paxtons garage is very funny as if he just stumbled there by accident while window-shopping.
Big risk, big reward?
Is that a saying?
