Okay a
quick note….while by the time this post moves from queue to blog I should have
season 12 on DVD however until that happens I shall be watching via the DVR not
that it makes a difference except now I will have to fast forward those pesky commercials
and what not….anyway it’s time for another twenty episode Novella called
‘Showdown’ and it’s interesting to note that episodes for this arch aired at a
10PM timeslot as opposed to the normal 8 or 9 PM slot.
Anyway
re-watching Via the DVR there is a nice little recap of major plotlines from
the first two seasons pertaining to the main characters who have plots in this
episode.
It opens
up with the Torres brothers and new student Dallas whom is their ward of sorts
showing up at Degrassi for the start of the next term. Dallas is checking out
the girls and knows he’s going to like it here as Audra calls out how she and
Omar are in Kingston overnight and the boys can have one friend over and that’s
it….translation PARTY. Dallas wonders what the big first day assembly is about
and Drew says it’s probably all about introducing Dallas and the Ice Hounds the
new major junior hockey team now being hosted at Degrassi. Adam thinks it’s
about the school closing due to all the drama. Dallas goes to see his team as
Dave, Jenna and Alli join them. Dave also thinks the school is going to close
and asks why Drew is a sour puss. Adam says how he was supposed to dump Katie
but he chickened out. Drew denies it and says how her parents gave him a sweater.
They then start talking about all the relationship dramas that have happened as
Clare shows up as part of the group. It’s a really cute ensemble scene overall
and I wish there were more scenes like this that went on.
The Bell
rings and Drew sits beside Bianca at the assembly and she can read Drew and
knows that he didn’t do it. He mentions the sweater but Bianca reminds him he promised
to wait until she was out of rehab and in a good place to do his dirty work….um
if I remember correctly Bianca was the one who was all unselfish and let Drew
go to be with Katie so then why is she such a bitch about Krew (Katie + Drew)
she changes tone and teases him asking how ugly the sweater is as Katie takes a
seat saying how it’s okay if Drew hated it he just has to wear it at every
family function. Bianca comments saying how Katie looks to be in a good place
and Katie notes she is and thanks Bianca for caring so much.
Simpson
comes on stage with some board members. He could have sent this in a letter
home but he wanted to do it in person. The school is now uniform free!!!!
WHATEVER
IT TAKES
