Degrassi: Don't Panic (Part 2)

"You're dead to me!"

Ms. Oh confronts Katie about her rumored bulimia, and as school protocol she has to set up a meeting with the guidance counselor. Katie tells Marisol to tell everyone it's not true because she's stopped purging but Marisol refuses. Later Katie is a guest on Mano a Mano with Dave and Adam where they use a lie detector app to help her prove that Marisol is lying. Unfortunately for her the app informs them that Katie is lying when she denies her eating disorder. A very stressed out Katie attempts to prep for the Q&A in hopes of saving her campaign but instead begins stuffing her face with chips. She later goes to purge in the toilet and Marisol finds her crying in the stall. Katie lashes out at Marisol and informs her that she's dead to her and leaves an upset Marisol in the bathroom. Katie later confesses to Drew that at soccer camp she tried to lose weight and that led to her bulimia, and informs him that she still desires to purge. Drew is still into Katie and pushes her not to give up on the election. Marisol, Mo and Katie face off in the election where Marisol tells everyone she made up the accusation and withdraws to throw her support behind Katie. Later Dave and Adam announce the new school president is Katie Matlin! Katie promises to be Degrassi's greatest president and appoints her vice president/BFF Marisol Lewis. Drew does not appear to be pleased by Katie jumping back into her friendship with Marisol. The next day he informs Katie that he does not like Marisol and if she's around he will not be.

Eli and Jake are working on their sweat lodge project and Eli uses the opportunity to attempt a bond. Jake tells him their problem regarding a movie she wanted to see but declines Eli's advice. Eli later confides in Fiona who jokingly advises him to lock them in a room until they get along which Eli takes seriously. Eli and Fiona later trap Clare and Jake in the sweat lodge until they get along. Eli then confesses to them that he has bipolar disorder and asks them to work through their problems. Clare confesses that she's more worried about how Jake will react to future problems. Eli pushes them together and they declare their love for each other. Jake and Clare make up and Jake thanks Eli for his help. The next day Jake confesses that he still loves Clare but has to let her go. He makes his next stop to apologize to Imogen. She's still upset with him but accepts his invitation to meet for coffee.

Sav hints to Mo about his kiss with Ms. Oh. He makes things awkward when he later yells at her class for not listening to her. Sav later apologizes and Ms. Oh reminds him that nothing can happen between them. Later Mr. Simpson calls them both into his office to discuss the rumors about their relationship. He knows how it feels to have similar rumors so gives them the benefit of the doubt. Sav takes the fall and says he spread the rumor to impress people which lands him in detention until graduation. She later slips him her number with a note to hang out after he graduates.

The overall storylines for this episode were pretty good but the timing just did not seem right for this close to the ending of Now or Never. There was not anything really exciting going on and it all seemed like it could have been more intense. This episode gets a B and we are now down to the FINAL week!!!

Next Week: Two part episodes "Take a Bow" and "Dead and Gone"

WARNING: The promo may give away a HUGE twist in the final episode!
