Season 1 (Overview)
The show's debut season primarily featured the love triangle between Stephen, Lauren ("LC"), and Stephen's girlfriend, Kristin. Stephen and LC have been friends since childhood, and the show alluded to earlier romantic involvement between Stephen and LC, and to a previous love triangle between the same three people. Now, in LC and Stephen's senior year, the romantic conflict has intensified, as has the rivalry between the two girls. The rest of the cast served as supporting characters that helped to further or complicate this love triangle, and their own stories were discussed but were secondary to LC's life.
