Paige gets a job at the movie theater in order to pay off her debt to Spinner, but Spinner only cares about holding it over her head, and is no longer interested in Paige. Rick and Toby compete in a series of challenges, including a kissing contest.
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.
