Not being accepted into her first university choice, Anya feels pressure from A student Holly J. and partying boyfriend Owen to make the right choices. To try to get away from it all, Anya decides to do cocaine. Fiona discovers bed bugs in her loft, and assumes it is her new roommate Charlie's, and in turn they learn about each other. Connor claims his girl underwear fetish is over, and plans to make a phone app for girl's clothing, but gets caught in the women's washroom.
Like its predecessors, Degrassi follows a group of students attending Degrassi Community School who face challenges common to teen life, such as self image, peer pressure, child abuse, sexual identity, gang violence, self-injury, school shootings, teenage pregnancy and drug abuse.
Degrassi (previously titled The Next Generation) is the fourth fictional series in the Degrassi franchise, following The Kids of Degrassi Street, Degrassi Junior High, and Degrassi High.
