Episode opens with a terse exchange: someone thanks Simon and is told that thanks is too light. At school, Nola is called forward as classmates demand Sandra apologize for making her cry. Sandra refuses and slips into denials, which provokes Tate to verbally abuse Nola and threaten to make her drop out. Ryan steps in, physically restrains Sandra and forces a reluctant admission, "I was wrong." Tate vows revenge after school. The episode ends with students thanking Ryan while Tate’s looming retaliation hangs unresolved.
