'THE O.C.' AIRING AUG. 26 ON FOX
Ryan becomes a member of the Cohen family when Kirsten and Sandy decide to take full, legal responsibility for him. At rehearsal for an upcoming Cotillion, Marissa sets Ryan up to escort Anna, and Summer is regretfully partnered with Seth.
When the dancing stops, the drinking begins and all of the kids gather for a pre-Cotillion fiesta on the beach. As in a previous episode, Seth and Ryan arrive to an unwelcoming crowd and problems arise when Luke eyes Marissa and Ryan together, but Ryan resists the desire to fight.
Meanwhile, Sandy is approached by the SEC who explains that Jimmy is the subject of a fraud investigation and Kirsten's $100,000 loan to him has placed the Cohen family in the spotlight as well.
At the Cotillion, Sandy's, Jimmy's, and Ryan's tempers are all put to the test in the "The Debut" episode.

GABBY: Can I join you guys?
The guys, too excitedly, mutter "sure." "of course"...She slides in between them. As she shakes out her hair...
Ryan and Seth exchange another look. The hot tub just got hotter...
GABBY: (enjoying the attention)
So. What's up?
Another round of incoherent, babble, adolescent, fear-induced squeeks.
