AAdrianna gets a shot to return to her acting career, though not without some relapse worry on her part and resistance on Navid's. He spends most of the episode being a dick to her, though it's just his way of being protective, since her fuck-ups now affect him, too. Teddy takes this chance to insinuate himself into the distance between them. He gets as far as first base (depending on your base scheme) but, needless to say, it's not very far. AAdrianna has a crisis of conscience, and Teddy's unwarranted self-assurance actually gives Navid the push he needed to get all the way to home plate for once.

Which is where he meets Dixon, who's been bonking DJ Hottie since last episode. All of this, you'll remember is based entirely on the bald-faced lie that he's a.) not a high school student and b.) a person capable of sustaining a high-powered career in the music industry. For believing these untruths, DJ Hottie deserves what's coming to her. But yet! All the dishonesty is so worth it, because they are peas in an iPod! They love the same music and even have the same cell phone. It's, like, totally fate! That is, until the Lambo he's virtually stolen from Navid's father breaks down, and DJ Hottie finds the real owner's massive porn stash in the trunk. Dixon the Music Producer just became Dixon the Porn Backer. She actually accepts it until she stalks him down to the Casa Nueva and ridiculously misconstrues an innocent hug between Dixon and Debbie. Story developing…

Speaking of ill-fated sexual entanglements, Liam gets in early on some dirt about Jen's marriage to Olivier and her utter brokeassness. He blackmails her into forfeiting all her manipulation capital and telling Naomi about the broken marriage, the broken Jen and the broken condom (I'm presuming) during their one-nighter. Alas, Jen's bitchassness wins out, and she manages to use the Olivier debacle to strengthen her connection to Naomi for the moment. She and Liam both end the episode with smug looks on their faces as she thinks she's triumphed, and he knows that he's recorded a sound byte of her admitting they slept together. Touché.

And Annie. Poor, hobo-murderin' Annie. She is thisclose to her own undoing when Silver and Rumer-Willis-with-glasses set about writing a story about the hit-and-run murder. Turns out the guy Annie plowed down was a once-wealthy West Bev alum who became destitute in his final days. Somehow he still had $100,000 to give to West Bev, hence the murder-mystery article. They book an interview with Joe Homeless's nephew, who conveniencidentally is a student at West Bev himself. Annie can't resist making contact with him. He sees the sadness in her eyes, and they form an unlikely bond while gazing at the stars on the roof of his car. I can only hope he turns out as psychotic as his faux-philosophical ramblings and crazy eyes make him out to be.
