Previously on90210:It's probably
just nerves waking up. You should probably see a doctor.
There's no way in hell I'm letting
anything get in the way of this.
Do you think we could talk about stuff?
Talk about what?Our relationship
is important to me.
And my career's important to me.
Have a great show.DIXON: Have you seen Ade?
I was actually looking around for Silver.
Can't believe she's not here.
I guess the problems that Dixon and I had before the accident
never really went away.Now you're fighting things
that maybe you should just go with.
So, what do you think?
It's pretty great, huh?
If I can do this with some little clam shack...Hey, I'm sorry.
This is really great. Have you seen Liam?
I got to talk to him about something.
You have no right to judge me. You don't even know me.
And you don't know me.
YOUNG MAN: You will not believe what I just got vid of.
That actor guy totally doing some chick.
This is a private club. We don't allow video of our customers.
It's Liam.DIXON: Is that his teacher?
This guy is unbelievable.NAOMI: The busboy's not your only fan.
Annie, go talk to him.ANNIE: I will go...
and have a drink with him.
So, where's your man, the world traveler?
Colin is stuck at work.I can sit here and just
spit out some crap I read in travel and leisure for you.
NAOMI: Alec knew exactly where I was.
COLIN: He's been using your GPS
to track your location.
You'd like to reverse this pathway
and you have access to his e-mail account.
Someone who really knew what the hell they were doing hacked
into our secure server.This could sink us.
I hacked into the wife's mobile phone.
Candy from a baby.
♪
Are you sure no one can see us?
Well, the window's fogged up.
Maybe we should move this off campus.
I can't. I've got class in ten minutes.
[car horn beeps]
Great.
Why don't we just go make out on the steps of Kappa Gamma?
Yeah, why don't we?
I told you...
I'm a professor, you're a student.
There are rules about these things.
Actually, I looked it up in the handbook.
You can't have a relationship with yourstudent.
But I'm not your student.
I transferred classes.
I don't know what's hotter--
that you read the handbook or that you're trying to get me
on a technicality. Look, it may not
be wrong, but it looks wrong.
I don't like all this sneaking around.
I've been in these situations before.
They never end well.
I'm not saying we'll keep it secret forever.
Just until we figure out what exactly thisis.
So we have to sneak around L.A., but what about Santa Barbara?
I have to go to Phenomi-con this weekend
to help promote my movie. You should come.
That's a comic book convention.
There's gonna be college kids all over the place.
Not to mention reporters.
I'll see you when you get back.
And, hey, maybe while you're gone, I'll buy a bigger car.
[laughs] Yeah.
ALEC: The breach came from outside
our network, but it wasn't hacked.
Someone logged in using an admin clearance?
Before we could lock it down,
they copied the B server with the R.A.D. engine.
NAOMI: Any chance this is
geek speak for "everything's gonna be just fine?"
[sighs] Well, you know the video game
that we've been working on with Liam?
Right, so I created a special
graphics engine for it that converts a cell-phone photo
that you take of yourself into a digital avatar,
and then you can play with it in the game.
It's unlike anything that's ever been done before.
Now it's been stolen.
So it's just gone. You can't use it?
The video gamebusiness
is all about being first.
So if whoever stole it finds a way
to market it before we do, then we're screwed.
I just...
I don't understand how this happened.
I think I do.
The other night at the club opening, I was...
distracted.
I left my phone at the bar for a few minutes.
If someone cloned it, they'd have all my security clearances.
How exactly were you distracted?
You know what?
Who cares whose fault it is?
What matters is how we fix it.
If being first is a big deal, then release the game now.
I mean, Liam's gonna be at that nerd convention. Do it there.
Honey, that's sweet, but it's not that simple.
Phenomi-con starts tomorrow.
I mean, we were gonna be lucky if we got the game
ready in time for Christmas. It's-it's not gonna work.
We can't get the whole game ready for Phenomi-con,
but we might be able to finish a demo.
Then, no matter what happens, we'll still be first, right?
What do you think?
I mean, if we're gonna get the codes finished in time,
it's gonna take all night.
I'm gonna need
all three of us working together.
I'm in.
Me, too.
Oh, hey. Are you here
to lecture me again on what
a shallow person I turned out to be?
I get that you're pissed about what I said
the other night at the club, and I'll admit...
I was wrong.
And I'm here to apologize.
[laughs] Really?
Yeah, and you should feel
honored, too, because I almost never apologize.
Then again, I'm almost never wrong.
So... Well, your sincerity is touching.
Look, Annie, the truth is, is that we were having
a good time the other night.
And then Rand McNally showed up
and I got jealous.
It's... it's because I-I like you.
I don't know what to say.
How about, "Hey, I like you, too,
so take me back to your place and let's rotate those tires."
Riley!
Okay.[laughs] Look...
I appreciate your honesty.
I do, but I still want to give things a chance with Colin.
Wait... you want to be with that guy, fine,
but I still think he's a tool.Stop it.
I'm serious. "Oh, I used to drink espresso
in Paris after doing laps around the Leaning Tower of Pisa."
What?
If you're going to date that guy, you might want
to hire a fact checker.And what?
You're the perfect guy?
You're a selfish, hotheaded ego maniac.
Did you just call me "hot"?
[sighs] I like Colin.
He's a nice guy, and that may sound shallow to you,
but I have a long history of dating the wrong guy,
and I'm not making that mistake again.
Okay.
I get it.
You have fun with Mr. Right, okay?
I'm gonna go rotate my own tires.

Hey!
I know why you're here.
You do?
Yeah, you saw that blog online
that said my club was off the chain.
You came to congratulate me.
That's definitely it. Congratulations.
But it's time to take the training wheels off.
I'm making plans for, uh, Pop Ups in Chicago, New York.
Once we get established there, I'm thinking Europe.
Uh, people have no idea how big the club scene is in Greece.
Yeah, I hear it's really "off the chain."
Hey, there you are!
You're going to
Phenomi-con this weekend, right?LIAM: Well...
if by "going," you mean "contractually obligated,"
then yes. Why?
I was thinking about meeting up with some people from the crew
of Corporate Invaders. Can I ride with you?
Yeah, sounds good. We'll, uh, take the bike.
SILVER:Yeah.Oh, hey, Liam, uh...
we-we were just talking about the Pop Up, uh...
Oh, and that reminds me.
Did I see your professor from C.U. here the other night?
I... don't think so.You sure?
'Cause someone said they saw the two of you coming
from the back kitchen together.
Wow, that's oddly specific.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure if I saw my teacher in real life,
I would remember. I used to have nightmares
about that in grade school. Hey, if we're gonna go to
Phenomi-con, I should probably work on my bike,
so I'll pick you up in the morning.
Thanks.
Hey, he's acting a little weird.
Don't you think? Eh, I don't know.
Sometimes I feel like Hollywood's gone to his head.
Mmm, mmm. Unlike Navid Shirazi
who's the same club-promoting player he was in high school.

[Dixon laughs]
Baby, you got to check this video
Navid sent me from the Pop Up. I'm telling you,
you get to see everything you missed.
Yeah, well, you've been talking about it so much,
I feel like I was there.
Okay, look, babe, I know you're mad at me
for snapping at you at the Pop Up, okay?
But you got to understand I had a lot going on.
Yeah, your big comeback.
No, it...
Yeah, and-and other stuff.
Other stuff?
Oh, that explains everything.
Thank you.
Can we please not talk about this right now?
You know what?
We don't even have to talk about it at all.
Wait, where you going? I thought we was gonna watch the video.
I'll watch it later, okay?
I have to go to the store. We're out of milk and "other stuff."

Hey.
I've got ten minutes.
[theme music playing]
Okay... [gasps]
Welcome to the hack-a-thon!
Honey, this is amazing.[laughs]
You know, we really could've
pulled an all-nighter at the office.
Nonsense-- these little geeks are going to be working
till the wee hours to get ready for Phenomi-con.
If you want to maximize production,
you have to incentivize!
Ergonomic chairs.
Monitors with glare filters to reduce eye strain.
Ludwig will make drinks to order
and give everything a double shot of guarana.
The DJ has been instructed to give a steady, driving beat.
And there's a pound of cocaine on the kitchen counter.
Kidding. [laughs]
I just hope this works.
Our R.A.D. engine
is still buggy, so we got to run a special algorithm
to stabilize it, and that kind of thing usually takes weeks.
You can focus on the math.
I will focus on the morale.
Mwah!
Wow, talk about incentive.
ALEC: I had to pull some strings,
but I got us a convention room for tomorrow.
Great, now we can focus on the presentation.
First, I got to ask you something.
Um, after everything between us, why'd you cover for me with Max?
Look, Alec, I don't have an angle.
I was the one distracting you when you lost your phone
and neither of us want Max to know that.
But despite what you might think,
I actually want what's best for this company.
Well, thanks.
Let's not braid each other's hair just yet.
Hey, who's this guy?
Oh, I invited him.
He's Annie's little computer nerd Colin.
Thank you so much for coming.
You know code?Hey, uh, sure, yeah.
I work in I.T. at an insurance company.
Okay, well, uh, grab some coffee and check in with Max.
He'll tell you what he needs.
Good.All right.
Hey, I'm really sorry that this is so last-minute.
No, this will be fun.
When I worked in Sydney, we'd write code all night
and in the mornings we'd go diving
off the Great Barrier Reef.
Oh, that sounds amazing, but, um,
isn't the Great Barrier Reef in Queensland?
Yeah.
That's what I meant, Queensland.
I'm gonna get some coffee.[laughs]
Silver just texted. She's ready to go.
One of you guys lock up for me?
Yep, you know me, always got your back.
Thanks, man. Later!
Hey, you think they're gonna hook up?
Dude, you just opened your first successful club.
You should be up to your elbows in hot tail.
Why do you care?Liam should have the guts to tell me,
that's all. And I'm worried Silver's gonna get hurt.
And he's clearly lying to her about his professor...
Why can't you see what a jerk he is?
He's a jerk 'cause he wants to sleep with two girls?
I know a lot of jerks.
Yeah, I told you about that video I took
from that kid at the Pop Up, right?
The sex tape?
You're not gonna do anything with that.
You're too nice a guy.
You're right. I am.
And that's why I'm gonna show it to Silver
and prove that Liam's lying.
Before she does something she'll regret.
Hey, dude. Where you going?
Phenomi-con.
Phenomi...?
He is obsessed
with Liam and Silver.What's new?
I'm telling you, man, Liam did a number on him.
You don't mess with another guy's girl.
You don't.
So, what are you doing here?
Oh, uh, I'm just picking up the rest of my equipment.
You mind helping me out a little?Yeah, yeah, sure.
Thanks. Oh, uh, by the way, what'd you think of the set?
I had to step out for a while.
Um, I heard it was great, though.
Damn, dude.
Adrianna missed it, too.
I don't know, I...
I kind of snapped at her. She left.
Well, it was a big night for you.
No, no, man. I-I've been
kind of being being a jerk lately.
[sighs] We got into another argument this morning.
It-it just sucks.
You know? It really does. I really wanted her to see it.
She's, like, the most important person in the world to me.

Listen up, everybody!
I know it's 3:30 in the morning and you're all exhausted,

From here on out, when you finish a line of code,
you will get three minutes in the chair

LINDSEY: Annie?
You're here late.
Oh, hi, Professor Beckwith.
My friend Naomi lives nearby and we're pulling an all-nighter.

What are you still doing here?
Grading papers in my office.
Exciting weekend, huh?[laughs]
Oh, hey, I've been meaning to thank you
for helping my friend Liam with his contract problem.
Right. Liam.
Nice guy.
Yeah, maybe too nice.
He let his business partner-slash-
girlfriend-slash-psycho bitch walk all over him.
Not that you needed to know that.
I'm... just had way too much caffeine.
It's okay, um...
She was pretty crazy, huh?Yeah.
Well, he's got a long history of dating the wrong girl.
But who am I to talk?
My track record isn't great, either.
You mean the energy drink guy?Colin?
No, Colin is great.
Even if he couldn't pass fourth grade geography.
But you know what? I'm not gonna do this.
He is a perfectly good guy, and when you find a good guy,
you need to put your doubts aside and make it work.
Yeah, guess you do.

for 3:00 in the morning. I'm sorry. Brain Shock?

and I don't think anyone recognized you.Are you kidding?
It was on the Internet.
The whole world's seen it.

Uh, apparently someone taped me having sex with my professor.
By the way, we're dating.

So much for that.
Who would do that to you?I don't know.
It was taken the night of the Pop Up, and I...

No.
[gasps]No, he wouldn't do that.

Uh, okay.
Just my legs are still numb.
I don't understand.
You were getting better and then this happens out of nowhere?
My back's been hurting pretty bad since the Pop Up.
Why didn't you tell me?
[sighs]
I haven't been taking my pain pills.
Dixon, why?
Because I'm an addict, babe.
I was afraid, if I started taking them,
I wasn't going to be able to stop.
WOMAN: Well, Dixon,
I think we know what the problem is.
You have an abscess pressing on your spinal cord.
An abscess?It's not uncommon when you're still healing
from a trauma.
You'll be in the hospital for a few days,
but assuming we can get
the infection under control, you'll be fine.
You must have been in tremendous pain.
Get some rest, okay?
So that's why you snapped at me that night?
You were in pain and you were trying to hide it.
Yeah. I'm sorry.
I thought it was me getting in the way of your career.
Look, the only reason why the Pop Up was so important to me
is because I didn't want to let you down.
[sighs]
I should have told you this before, but...
After the accident, when I woke up
in the hospital, the first thing I saw was you holding my hand.
And I knew right then and there that I didn't deserve you.
So I promised myself
that I would earn my second chance.
That I'd be the man that you want me to be.
The kind of man that always puts you first.
Hey, babe.
It's okay.
I'm just glad you know the truth.
Hey, you in a hurry?
Uh, no, I got what I came for.
Yeah, I think you did.
Look, I didn't record that video,
okay?
Someone gave it to me.
I-I didn't want the whole world to see it.
Just you.
Why? Because Liam lied to you.
I wanted you to see what kind of guy he was
before you hooked up with him.
Hooked up with him?
What-what are you talking about?
Stop it, Silver.
I know you two have been getting closer.
As friends.
And the only reason he lied about his professor
is because she wanted to keep the relationship a secret.
Wha... Wait.
They're-they're together, like, for real?
Yeah.
The funny thing is,
Liam's the one that's been encouraging me
to give you another chance, and I actually thought about it.
But after all of these years
of saying you'd never get into the family business,
that's exactly what you've done.
Hey.
You're right.
I-I really messed up.
Yeah, yeah, you did.
I don't even know you anymore.
So, Data Nitrate.
We've got big plans for the future.
Really... big plans.
Plans, um, I'm quite confident that you will love.
Dude, when are you gonna show us something?
Yeah, uh,
well, uh, I-I could show you something.
But I'm not going to,
and that's because, well,
I-I want you to use your imagination.
Oh, my God, he's drowning.
This is a disaster.
Yep, and it's your disaster.
Excuse me?
You said it yourself.
You forced Annie to date Colin,
you invited him to your little hack-a-thon,
and he didn't get my phone at the Pop Up, did he?
No, as a matter of fact, he didn't.
He got it from removing your GPS tracking from my phone.
Oh, wow.
You brought him right in, didn't you?
Did you give him Max's ATM pin, too?
Wait a minute.
When you thought this was your fault,
I covered for you. I thought we were a team.
It's like I've been saying.
Max and I are a team, and you're a mistake.
And I can't wait to tell him
that this is all your fault.Really?
Yes. [groans]
What are you doing?
NAOMI: If I'm going down,
I'm taking you with me.
[crowd gasping]
[cheering]
Princess Leia's kicking that guy's ass.
Sorry about Colin.
Me, too.
It just sucks that I pushed away somebody I actually care about
because I thought he was such a nice guy.
Oh, don't beat yourself up.
After what Navid did, I don't think there's any way to tell
who the nice guys are anymore.
Riley?
What are you doing here?
Hey, Annie, um,
look, it's about Dixon.
Um, I don't want you to worry,
but he has a, uh... a spinal infection.
He's gonna be in the hospital for a couple days.
We tried calling you.
[scoffs] I left my phone in the car.
This stupid costume doesn't have any pockets.
Is he okay?No, he's gonna be fine.
Yeah, I just, I thought you might want to come home,
maybe need a ride.
If not, it's cool.
These sci-fi chicks go crazy over guys in chairs.
It's like an X-Menthing
or something.
You drove all the way to Santa Barbara for me?
Yeah.
What a nice guy.
Okay, what was that about there?
Colin turned out to be exactly what you thought he was.
He was just using me to steal Max's software.
Wow.
This is the part
where you get to say, "I told you so."
I feel like an idiot.
No. No, I'm the idiot.
I should have been honest with you,
told you that I liked you
the first time you yelled at me in the gym.
Yeah, well, um,
you're not the only one who hasn't been honest.
Max, this whole thing was her fault.
She's the one who brought Colin in.
She's the reason he got access to my phone.
Only because you were tracking me.
He was tracking me.That's because...
Stop! Stop, stop.
Okay, I don't care whose fault it was.
I really don't.
No, look, all I wanted
was the two most important people in my life
to get along.
When is this gonna end?
It's not.
I tried.
I really, really tried.
But Alec's been conspiring to break us apart
since the day we got married,
and I won't be able to fight him off forever.
Eventually...
he's gonna win.
What are you saying?
I'm sorry, Max.
You have to choose.
It's him or me.
Did I mention I like those ears?Naomi made me do it.
Sure she did.
I feel ridiculous. Well, well.
Look who it is.
There you are.
You know what, we should just let it go.
He's not worth it.
You probably already know this about me,
but, uh, not so good at letting go.
Hey.
[laughs]
Ah, you've come to defend Annie.
How sweet.
[chuckles] Yeah, or not.
[grunting]
That was so wrong.
But you like wrong.
Hey, there you are.
Where have you been?
I've been trying to call you all night.
Yeah, I-I turned my phone off.
I needed some time to think.
Look, I know that things are crazy right now,
but eventually, this is gonna blow over.
Maybe for you.
But even if administration doesn't fire me
for being in a sex tape,
how am I ever supposed to stand
in front of a class full of college students again?
My academic career
is over.
And so are we.
Lindsey, don't do this.
I really like you,
but you lead a very public life.
And even if our relationship didn't have
all these other complications,
it's not the kind of life I want.
[sighs]
Hey.
Hi.
How did it go?
Dixon's had a setback.
He's back at the hospital for a few days.
I couldn't tell him.
You know what I think?
You still love him.
Maybe.
[groans]
I don't know. I'm confused.
I'm not.
I can't do this anymore.
[whispers]: Okay.
Dixon's a lucky guy.
I just hope he knows that.
What do you want?
Liam, uh...
I-I'm really sorry.
You can kick my ass if you want.
You can even tape it and put it on the Internet.
Trust me, it... I would feel a lot better.
What are you doing?
This is for everything that you put into the club.
Liam, please. Hey, hey, hey, I'm sorry.
Get the hell out.
If I ever see you in here again,
I will kick your ass.
[sighs]
Good news-- our lawyers...
Our lawyers think we can hit Colin with an infringement suit.
Why is she here?
Max, come on.
I know things got out of hand at Phenomi-con.
I'm sorry.
It's too late for that, Alec.
So you're choosing her over me?
Look, I asked you two
to find a way to make it work.
She tried; you didn't.
Well, you can't fire me.
Not without approval of the board.
I'm not firing you.
I'm asking you to resign.
You have to buy me out.
It'll cost you a fortune.
Good thing I married well.
Alec...
Congratulations.
Looks like you won.
I didn't want it to be like this.
Yeah, you keep telling yourself that.
Baby, I know it's hard.
It's for the best.
It just doesn't feel that way.
It feels like our marriage
just cost me my best friend.
