Added DiffLines:

* AmbiguousSituation: It is left unclear who tipped the authorities off to the Ravens being involved in point shaving; Nathan speculates that it’s just someone who lost out because he didn’t go along with Daunte’s instructions to throw the State Championship rather than Daunte’s muscle, Bear.
* DisappointedInYou: Whitey heavily implies to Nathan that he knows Lucas wasn’t the one behind the point shaving, and he’s disappointed in Nathan for letting his brother be branded a cheat for the rest of his life. It’s ultimately what gets Nathan to admit to his actions, even if it could cost him the chance of reaching the NBA.


Added DiffLines:

* ObfuscatingDisability: On her mother’s instruction, Abby pretends to have been rendered catatonic by witnessing the school shooting when Lucas first confronts her about what happened.


Added DiffLines:

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Abby and her mother flee Tree Hill for their safety once it becomes clear that Dan knows that Abby saw him kill Keith.

* TreacheryCoverUp: Nathan tries to get Lucas to take the fall for the point shaving, citing that Lucas’ heart condition prevents him from pursuing a professional career whereas the scandal will destroy any chance Nathan has of doing so.
