At school, Annie sees a group of ballerinas who announce the upcoming Winter Wonderland dance. She tells Jasper that she used to be into dances and sees he doesn't want to go. Naomi asks Annie to talk to her in the bathroom. She admits she made a huge mistake when she accused her of sleeping with Liam. She says she knows Jen was the one who was with Liam. Annie tells her she put her through hell. In the journalism club, Navid tells Teddy and Dixon that he can't go to the police with only his suspicions that he saw Jasper push him down the stairs. He figures he should prove that Jasper is selling drugs. He introduces the boys to Laila and explains she is a school newspaper reporter. She says her story has hit a dead end. Navid says after he gets proof, Jasper won't know what hit him.

Navid informs Adrianna he thinks Jasper pushed him down the stairs, but he can't prove it. He says he needs someone to come forward and state that Jasper is a drug dealer. Adrianna says she can't help since she is on probation. Navid says he will figure something else out.
Debbie takes Dixon out to play mini-golf. Debbie tells him that they used to take him out often, but he reminds her he was only ten. Debbie asks him how long it will take for him to forgive her.

Naomi tells Adrianna that after they get back from St. Barts, they can talk. Naomi gets a message that shocks her.

Dixon meets with Silver who is waiting for a cab. She explains Naomi had to take care of something. Dixon asks her if everything is okay since they are friends. Silver admits that Teddy has been asking her out. She says she was going to talk to Teddy, but she saw him with a blonde girl. Dixon is about to explain that the girl is Teddy's sister, but before he does, Silver says she knows that Teddy is a player. Dixon says although Teddy is his friend, she deserves way better since she is amazing. Dixon says he doesn't know why he let her go, then gives her a kiss. Teddy sees them kissing and tells his sister they should leave. Silver asks Dixon what was that, then sees that her cab is there. She tells him they should talk after he gets back from her trip.
