"The Rivals: Airing January 21, 2004

"RYAN IS OUT TO EXPOSE OLIVER"
Sandy and Jimmy begin their new business partnership when they buy the Lighthouse, a beloved Newport restaurant, while Kirsten and Julie face off at the office when Julie is hired as the Newport Group's new model-home designer. Seth becomes jealous of Summer's new boyfriend and begins to doubt his relationship with Anna. Meanwhile, Ryan risks everything to prove that Oliver is a fraud, leaving Seth and the Cohens concerned and afraid.

Sandy meets with a man named Robert Mills who inherited a lighthouse when his father died. Mills has to sell the lighthouse. Jimmy arrives on the scene and Sandy introduces him as his partner. Jimmy is scared of ruining his friendship with Sandy. Something (don't know yet if it's good or bad) happened between Ryan and Marissa. Oliver and Ryan talk about it in the student lounge. Sandy and Kirsten meet with Dr. Joyce Kim at Harbor School. Ryan borke into Dr. Kim's office to read Oliver's file. He will have to go in front of the Disciplinary Committee. Suspension and expulsion from the school are possibilities. Sandy says that what Ryan did is very uncharacteristic of him. Ryan says that he doesn't trust Oliver and wanted to know more about him because Oliver is unstable and Ryan wants to protect Marissa. We learn more about Oliver (suicide attemp, restraining orders against him, and why Harbor School agreed to have him, etc.). Ryan gets detention until the committee makes its decision. Out of concern for Marissa, Dr. Kim meets with her to talk about Ryan. Note: Expect a possible change of actress to play Dr. Kim (who was played by Rosalind Chao in three previous episodes).

Ryan thinks Oliver is in love with Marissa and is suspcious when he (Oliver) is suddenly transferring to Harbor. He breaks into the Headmistress' office to read Oliver's file and gets caught. Now Ryan is now in big trouble with the school and could possibly be expelled.

Jimmy takes a leap of faith and goes into business with Sandy. They plan on restoring "The Lighthouse," which sounds like a restaurant.

"The Truth: Airing January 28, 2004

Julie hired workmen to do work in Kirsten's office (it isn't clear, but from what is said, I believe it's her office). Seth and Sandy talk about Ryan. Sandy seems to be helpless about getting Ryan to confide in him. Seth tells him to wait and that Ryan will eventually come to Sandy when he's ready. Marissa is staying with Oliver Trask in the penthouse of the Four Seasons Hotel. The concierge of the hotel is named Natalie, the same one who used to babysit Oliver when he was young. Marissa discovers Natalie's last name, which makes Marissa's head spin a bit. Things get really ugly in the penthouse and Marissa will call Ryan so he comes pick her up. Ryan will go to the hotel with Sandy and be allowed to go to the penthouse after Ryan also recognizes Natalie. All three will go to the penthouse, where, from the corridor, everything looks okay... but Ryan doesn't believe what Oliver is saying. Still in the corridor, Ryan calls for Marissa... the truth will indeed come out in this episode and it won't be pretty!

Sandy confesses he's worried about what's going on with Ryan. Seth says "be your Sandy Cohen self. He'll come to you when he's ready."
Sandy & Kirsten have a convo about Ryan. Now it seems as if Kirsten is the one who's telling Sandy "things will work out".
Sandy & Kirsten arrive at Kirsten's office. Upon arrival, they find three workman there...one says that Kirsten is not supposed to be here. Julie is behind all of this. Julie hands Kirsten flowers and Kirsten asks what's going on...
Marissa and Oliver are staying in a penthouse suite at the Four Seasons. Marissa goes down to the front desk, asking if anyone left a bag for her. Marissa realizes she recognizes the concierges name (Natalie) for some reason. Concierge says she used to babysit Oliver. Marissa asks her her last name...and somehow Marissa recognizes it and it's not good...
Marissa, shaken up from seeing the concierge, goes back to Oliver's suite. Oliver is just getting out of the shower, wondering where Marissa was.
Luke shows up at Julie's place? Something to do with Marissa.
Back to the Four Seasons: Ryan and Sandy are there. Apparently they're calling the suite, nobody's answering. Sandy goes up to the front desk...identifies himself, says they got an emergency call from someone inside the penthouse 20 mins ago. Ryan recognizes the concierge/Natalie as well. She asks if he's a friend of Olivers, he nods and she leads them up to the penthouse...
Natalie knocks on the door and Oliver freaks out. Marissa is hopeful that someone's there to help her. Oliver says not to come in, he just got out of the shower...Marissa is pleading with him and he points the gun at her. Natalie/concierge says things are fine, Ryan and Sandy are discouraged. Ryan pleads with Natalie to open the door...Sandy says we're leaving.
Ryan calls out Marissa's name twice. Silence. Sandy puts his hand on Ryan's shoulder and says "let's go". Before Ryan turns, he hears Marissa's voice "RYAN! HE'S GOT A GUN!". Ryan and Sandy stare at each other and Sandy instructs Natalie to call security.
Back in the hotel room, Oliver is swinging the gun around and yelling at Marissa...Marissa says she can't help him alone. Oliver points the gun to his head and makes Marissa promise not to leave...as two security officers come in. One tells Oliver to put the gun down. Ryan and Sandy are also behind them. Marissa calls out to Ryan. Oliver says to the cops, "you're gonna shoot me? Here, let me save you the trouble". Oliver puts his finger on the trigger, cries and says to Marissa..."I'm sorry".

Julie and Luke hook up

"The Heartbreak": Airing February 4, 2004

Seth and Summer had sex. She says that love hurts as she rubs her sore leg. Marissa tells Summer that she doesn't know what is going between "us" (us surely referring to her and Ryan). Jimmy goes to a beach front apartment where a dread-locked glassy-eyed surfer chick in her mid-20s named Alexis opens the door and asks if he's a cop. He's actually looking for Hailey who now leaves there. He tracked down Hailey so he gets her cookies' recipe for his new restaurant and so she becomes the first guinea pig of dishes he wants to offer.

Summer and Marissa are talking. Marissa says she doesn't know what's going on between her and Ryan. She says "this girl is gonna be there." Marissa notices that Summer is limping. Summer says Seth kneed her. Marissa ask if her and Seth had sex again. Summer responds and says "if you can call it that."

The next scene has Jimmy going over to wherever Hailey is shacking up and asking for her cookie recipe for his restaurant.

Marissa gets closer to Oliver while Oliver messes with Ryan's head. Oliver admits to Ryan he has feelings for Marissa. Oliver transfers to their school. Ryan breaks into Dr. Kim's office to read his file and is caught. We learn that Oliver was institutionalized for cutting his wrists because a girl filed a restraining order against him. Ryan is on the verge of being expelled. Sandy loses trust in him but assists Ryan when he finds out Marissa is in trouble. Marissa is at the Four Seasons with Oliver and when she finds out the truth about him (we find out he has been lying: his made-up girlfriend is actually his old babysitter who works at the hotel), he threatens to shoot himself and threatens her. Sandy, Ryan and security guards come to Marissa's rescue. Oliver dies. Theresa reappears in Ryan's life. Marissa is jealous of them hanging out. Ryan and Marissa's relationship is in doubt.

Seth and Anna have trouble spending alone time together. Summer has a new boyfriend and Seth is extremely jealous. Seth and Anna split and he and Summer eventually get together and are having sex. In a conversation with Marissa, Summer mentions that Seth is trying the Kama Sutra and is in pain because of it and says "Love hurts". Kristin at E! Online reports that eventually, their sex is "magical". Back at school, people don't know Seth and Summer are dating. Summer is ashamed. Seth forces her to make a choice...her popularity or him? And this is for good.

Sandy tries to spend some alone time with Kirsten. Sandy begins to lose his faith in Ryan after he broke into Dr. Kim's office while Kirsten reassures him that things will work out. Sandy delves further into Caleb's business affairs.

He asks her for advice and tells Seth he's being a coward. This is the MAJOR turning point for S/S. (it's sweeps, what do you expect?) More drama with Sandy and Caleb. Caleb's doing something shady and Sandy's onto it. Apparently the other girl Marissa was referring to in The Heartbreak is Theresa (Ryan's ex who we saw in...whatever episode that was). She and Ryan are hanging out again. Are Marissa and Ryan still together? There's awkwardness between them.
