Ashley sets her sights on becoming Degrassi's newest student council president, but her sure win is soon threatened when her stepbrother Toby becomes frustrated by her unchallenged status and convinces his friend J.T. to run against her. Meanwhile, Emma and Manny deal with eighth-grader Spinner's bullying.

Terri doesn't want to attend Degrassi's first nighttime dance because she thinks she's too fat for any guy to like her. Spinner likes her, but Paige wants him for herself and, by playing on her insecurities, gets Terri drunk. Meanwhile, Emma is puzzled by the new kid's behavior and J.T. and Toby skip the dance to look at Internet pornography.

With Parents' Day fast approaching, Toby tries to convince his divorced parents that the event is canceled in order to avoid an ugly, public spat between them. Meanwhile, Ashley and Paige vie for the attention of Toby's mom, who happens to be a casting agent. Emma is annoyed by the morning-announcements program, because she thinks it's biased, and writes an opinionated paper about it.

Jimmy and Ashley's eight-month anniversary comes up but with Paige playing Juliet to Jimmy's Romeo for their English class assignment, Ashley contemplates having sex with him to keep him interested. Meanwhile, Toby attempts to get closer to Emma when the seventh-graders are given an assignment on endangered animals.

Jimmy wants to make the basketball team, but due to practice, his schoolwork suffers. To get an energy boost, he convinces Spinner to skip a Ritalin pill and give it to him instead. Meanwhile, Liberty is tired of writing Ashley's video announcement speeches and not getting any credit for it.

Ashley's dad is coming home from Europe, and she's happy, until she finds out he's gay and cuts him out of her life. Meanwhile, Liberty has the biggest crush on J.T., but he's not interested. When he hears about Ashley's father, he tells Liberty he, too, is a homosexual.

With his parents working constantly, Jimmy starts to spend all his time at Ashley's, which leaves her feeling smothered. Meanwhile, Emma learns her mood swings are not just because of stress when she gets her first period.

Emma accidentally starts a hurtful rumor about Liberty dating Mr. Armstrong, when in fact she is getting extra tutoring with him for her dyscalculia. Meanwhile, Spinner finds a bug in his school lunch, but no one will believe his story.

Sean asks Emma out on a date, but the night turns into one disaster after another. Meanwhile, when Jimmy and Spinner are given detention by a stressed Ms. Kwan, they vow revenge by pulling pranks on her and soon realize they may have gone too far.

Paige starts a Spirit Squad at school. Manny desperately wants to join, starts to hang out with the "in crowd," and questions her friendship with an unsupportive Emma. Meanwhile, Spinner, Liberty, J.T., and Toby team up to win a contest.

Ashley writes a song she plans to perform with Terri at the Degrassi Lunchtime Cabaret, but when Terri adds Paige, she grows annoyed when Paige takes control. Meanwhile, Emma performs a interpretive dance to advocate anti-poaching, and when Sean refuses to join, Toby steps up.

The last thing Sean wants is to repeat seventh grade for a second time but is convinced it will happen. Stressed to a boiling point, Sean releases his frustrations in a violent way. Meanwhile, Spinner attempts to get sick to avoid taking his English exam.

Ashley is tired of being a perfectionist and turns her end-of-the-year slumber party into an out-of-control rager. Meanwhile, J.T. brings an ecstasy pill for Toby, Sean, and himself, but when Ashley consumes it, things go from bad to worse. Also, Sean wants to make up with Emma.
