Go To

The Beverly High Eagles prep up for the upcoming Jamboree game without Coach Baker. After unexpectedly receiving a visit from Coach Wilson from the UCLA Bruins, Spencer is eager to get back on the field. Meanwhile, Coop is offered a producing deal from J.P. Keating, Jordan tries to reach out to Simone, and Olivia is guilty of keeping secrets about Asher's steroid use.


Tropes featured in this episode:

  • Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario: Coop and Patience reconcile, while Olivia and Asher take a break.
  • Graceful Loser: J.P. congratulates his daughter for managing to win Coop's loyalty over him.
  • Ironic Echo Cut:
    J.P.: OK, you can have this party, but I'm gonna stick around to supervise.
    Layla: Great, that'll be fun.
    (meanwhile at Slauson)
    Spencer: I'm not gonna have no fun at this party, man.
  • Jerk Jock: Dane Kohler from the Westlake Wildcats, the guy who impregnated Simon, refuses to acknowledge her baby's paternity and continuously insults Jordan for minding about it.
  • Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Not only Billy's attempt to cover for Asher fails because the latter feels guilty enough to confess to the principal and gets suspended, but Billy's lies leave the principal no choice but to investigate his entire program, which can potentially suspend the team.
  • So Proud of You: After Billy gives him a tongue lashing about not being there for Asher, Harold apologizes for his behavior and tells him how proud he is of him.
  • Wild Teen Party: The party before the Jamboree is set at Layla's house.
