Throughout this series, Devi has had a rich fantasy life.
But it all goes awry when shes reminded that shes betraying her bestie.
Talk about a mood killer.
He shows up, and Nalini isnt psyched, but goddammit, I sure am!
Its Margots babe-ly dad.
Having already met under not-so-ideal circumstances through their daughters, the two parents arent exactly chummy with each other.
Turns out he has officially been hired as the schools assistant swim coach.
Its nice how the series can use him to explore this kind of story line.
Nalini comes home to find her house in disarray.
According to Andres, a termite infestation has compromised the entire staircase.
Devi gives in, but the moment is cut short when Eleanor catches them.
Fab encourages them to make a besties before testes pact and each vows to leave Ethan alone.
Nalini and Kamala head over, recording everything for a potential Scambusters segment.
He assures Nalini hell return to work on the stairs the next day.
Ethan explains to Devi why he kissed her despite his dalliance with Eleanor: I didnt plan it.
I guess the boys got serious rizz.
Devi overhears that Margot never asked Ben to stop talking to Devi he opted for the silent treatment himself.
The girls engage in a self-pity face-off, arguing about who deserves a shot with the slacker.
She called first dibs and just got dumped.
Unfortunately, a devastated Trent hears this exchange, particularly the part where Eleanor reveals she kissed Ethan.
The whole thing brings Eleanor back to earth.
She realizes she has been using the dreamy degenerate as a distraction from missing Trent.
(He admits he got greedy once his growth spurt made him a hot commodity.)
And that is how Devi begins dating a bad boy.
But there are benefits, as Devi happily discovers.
He leaves, and shes visibly ecstatic over what she just experienced: great sex!
It seems Ethan has proved anancient boy-band adagetrue.
In other exciting news, its College Fair Day at Sherman Oaks!
After arriving at the fair, Devi feels even better about her odds: the Princeton rep is Indian!
I cant get behind the dismissive approach of Fabiolas mother, but I dont think her reasoning is wrong.
She suggests Devi would probably love to go to college with Fab an expectation that seems reasonable to me?
Besides, Fabs line of thinking reinforces an unhelpful, unhealthy scarcity mind-set.
Whats meant for you cant be taken away!
Devi knows she came across as unlikable and emphasizes how attending this college is a deep-rooted dream of hers.
Akshara cuts her some slack.
The move leaves Akshara impressed and Devi charmed.
I wonder why?)
And Ranveers not the only one going topless!
She assures him this doesnt make them friends and sends him back to the fair.
Oh my God, you are a dirtbag, she says to her sticky-fingered (soon-to-be ex-) boyfriend.
At the risk of seeming like a stalker, Devi returns Aksharas wallet in person.
She explains what happened, and Akshara commends Devi for her courage and honesty.
But can she keep it up?
Are they taught this in school?
Is it nature or nurture?
We meet Lindsay Thompson, the bright-eyed and bushy-tailed substitute teacher taking over for Dr. Keyes in episode three.
Its nice to know Paxton will have a young peer to interact with instead of just the high-school kids.
Nalinis Thats very rude direct to camera so funny.
Thank you for your service, Ivan.
