Lysistrata is shocked!

Adam apologizes to Liza for blowing up on her. Liza tells him that JR just needs some space. She says they should check with JR before they jump to any conclusions. The phone rings and its Laurie. She’s called to let Adam know that she can’t accept his offer for paying for Harvard. Adam asks her if JR is with her. She says no…but Adam doesn’t believe it. Laurie’s dad snatches the phone away from her and Adam is left hanging. Just then the doorbell rings. Jamie comes in asking about JR as well. Adam is getting more and more frustrated about not know where JR is.

Chris tells Erica that he wishes he could be as close to Erica as Jackson is. Erica tells him that she admits she has history with Jackson, but she loves Chris. Chris tells Erica he thinks she’s been cheating on him. Erica is at a loss for words, but then tells him he’s right. Chris asks Erica what she means. Erica says she’s been cheating on Chris…with Enchantment! She tells him that she’s been really distracted by her company, and the rivalry with Fusion. She admits she’s been not putting Chris first. Jackson, in the background, looks very disappointed that Erica didn’t tell the truth. Erica asks Chris to come to her directly if he has a problem, and Chris promises her he will.

Laurie struggles with her Dad. He tells her that he supports her as much as he can…he pays for her clothes, etc. Laurie tells him that she earns what she has…she has two jobs, and she’ll get a third if she needs to in order to pay for Harvard. Laurie wants to be able to leave town, to make something of herself. She asks her dad why he’s always pulling her back. Her dad insists that she belongs in Pine Valley.

Jackson grabs her and tells her that Chris isn’t really worried about her, but is more scared of her finding out the truth about him.

Mia calls Alison a pathetic little whore. Alison starts telling her how she and Jake made love, and how they were drawn to each other. Mia isn’t comfortable hearing details about their sex life, but continues her interrogation. She asks Alison why Jake used to come to her. She wonders if Jake used to go to Alison because she was to busy with her work. Alison says they never used to talk…just have a good time together. Alison gets up to leave again. She reaches the door but Mia calls back after her. She loudly asks “Was the sex good?” The people sitting around them look back. Alison walks back to their table and tells Mia that yes the sex was good. Alison asks her if she is now happy, knowing these details of the affair. Mia says she’s not…not yet. Alison sits back down. Mia asks her whether Jake used to tell her that he loved her. Alison says no. Mia tells Alison that makes her lucky…because he didn’t play her like a fool.

Joni is plastering Fusion posters all over the school. Simone walks in, and tells her they should leave before they get caught…but too late. The school security guard has caught them.

Laurie is struggling with her drunken dad. She whacks him with her purse, and he falls pretty hard. She runs towards him to check if he’s ok.

Liza asks Adam what he told Jamie. Adam tells her he merely told Jamie that he shouldn’t try to compete with Chandlers. Liza tells him she knows what Jamie was referring to when he said Chandlers go after Martins. She confesses that she kissed Tad. Adam seems shocked.

Lysistrata and Tad, dressed up in leather biker clothes, come back from riding. Tad feels very alive, and wonders if Lysistrata is always this exciting.

Erica tells Jackson that Chris is decent and honorable – that she knows him well. Jackson tells her she shouldn’t think so much of Chris, and that he’s hiding something. Jackson accuses Erica for coming over to his place because she couldn’t stop thinking of him. Erica insists that she doesn’t think of him, and she never will.
