303 - Out With The Old

Premiered - Oct. 13th, 2009.

Alot has changed since summer. Ania and Danae put their differences aside and are now friends. Although Ania decided to leave the show, shes not the only one though, Blessing has decided to leave the show too and early last season Aaron decided to distance himself. Now summers over and everything going well. But Jenny and her new boyfriend Joey aren't at their best and Rana and Vincent have seem to hit rock bottom.

Rana meets up with Phylicia on the night before school and they talk about how they miss Kori since shes moved, and how Blessings changed. Aside from that Rana mentions that Vincent is coming to visit tomorrow and Ranna knows there's going to be an argument. Phylicia tells her to call her just in case and shell bring her matches.

The next day, without a doubt Rana and Vincent get into an argument. And its simply over Rana not giving Vincent a hug when he greets her. After alot of yelling Rana walks away stating "Im Done" which leaves Vincent to stand there, alone, in tears.

That night Jenny and Joey are at Great Wall, a Chinese restaurant before getting their food Jenny says a racist joke about the Chinese woman in the store. Joey isn't too happy after-wards and when Jenny is wondering why shes being ignored and treated rudely shes tells him it was a joke but Joey just isn't in the mood for games.

The next day, at school Vincent catches up with Sandy and they talk about school, Sandy's surgery over the summer, and the argument that Rana and him had, he seems to be taking it lightly and not realizing whats happened. Sandy leaves and jokes that hes used to being by himself.

Later, Rana, Ivy, and new friend Kali are talking about the argument last week. Rana states that it is over, but Kali and Ivy KNOW its not over. Ivy reassures Rana there's so much more out there and there's a lot of "buses" to catch and things to do. Rana seems to listen but at the end of the day Rana will do as she pleases. The three come in for a group hug and walk to the bus.

Season 3 continued..this October!

With the premier/continuation being a month away, id like to inform you viewers/readers of the blog!!

Ok, A lot has changed in The Suburbs. We shifted the focus of the show significantly from a relationship drama to the group as a wholes drama. Covering things that we didn't cover before. The show feels much more like a reality instead of a sitcom. Our whole shooting style changed. You’ll see much more action and less people sitting and talking, there are alot more fireworks than before.

NOTE:
301 & 302 were the bonus "summer episodes" to season 2 aka 217 & 218..but were later changed to 301 & 302 for production value.

216 - Dont Look Back

Part 1
Premiered - May. 30th, 2009.

*A season review to bring everybody up to date is shown.

Out shopping, Ivy and Rana talk about the latest. Vincent is coming back next week and Rana's beyond happy. She tells Ivy that hes came clean of everything that was wrong. She forgave him of course but among one of the many things Vincent confessed to, Ivy was upset that he didn't have his license like she thought. And the situation with the infamous girl (that Ania, Sherri, and others saw him with) he did talk to but it wasn't anything serious. Rana wants to move on and forget the past, shes ready to start a new slate with him.

Over at school, Ania and Gloria, a friend, are sitting back in the talking about how fast the year went by. Then Danae interrupts them because she has to get something off her chest with Ania. When Gloria leaves Danae asks why Ania didn't come to her birthday get together (which shes made a big deal of for some months now). Ania simply said that she went to her boyfriends first baseball game. Danae obviously upset didn't like that she did that. And aside from that, Ania tells Danae that shes not feeling the same, as if they're distancing apart, and she cant find anything in common between them lately. Danae, is again, shocked that Ania is saying this, and just before things get any weirder Ania begins to leave as Danae sings "hes phony, shes fake". DRAMAA

Blessing and Rana havent been talking for a couple of weeks, over nonsense. The two truthfully and honestly randomly meet up at target and the drama begins. Blessing's aunt Sophia notices Rana and calls her over. Blesing goes to sit down while Rana catches up with Sophia. Annoyed at Blessings silence, and rudeness, Rana leaves. Sophia forces Blessing to go find her and talk to her, so she does. When the two start to talk Rana thinks Blessings only doing it for the show thinking that the conversation itself isn't genuine. The two go on about the problem, and then Rana starts to crack. She cant help but smile at her on/off again friends jokes and sensitivity. Even though Rana is a little reluctant on forgiving her, she does and the two apologize , knowing its not going to be easy especially since they're this far in the friendship its almost like a relationship.

215 - Once A Liar...

Premiered - May. 9th, 2009.

Sandy and her friend Jackie are talking about how short the school year was. They talk about missing the seniors leaving, and are excited for next year and what it'll bring. Meanwhile Ania, Tay, Sherri, and Anika are having lunch. Ania brings up the fact that Vincent is coming back soon. Sherri brings up the fact that shes been holding something back. Her best friend and Vincent used to go out awhile back. Ania being the one to say "i told you so", remembered that its the same girl she saw holding hands with him months ago. Anika also reveals that she knows about another girl he was talking to also, and a furious Ania only has a couple of words to say "cheater cheater pumpkin eater". Even Tay remembers the situation and is shocked to hear the truth. Then Ania states that if he was doing this in another school (like she predicted), whats he doing in another state?

A week later Ania tells Rana about the situation, and Rana takes her word and calls Vincent. (Didn't catch on camera) So Vincent comes clean and tells her that he got the girls number and such, and Rana gets over it because its in the past and she knows all his love is towards her now. BUT the next day, Rana hears from a friend/relative of Vincent that on Vincents past birthday he turned 16 and not 17 like Rana thought. So this makes Rana even more mad, from the things everybody's telling her shes ready to end it with him. While going crazy contemplating breaking up with him, Ivy, Blessing, and Phylicia try to mediate her. Blessing busy on the phone still lost to most of the conversation while Phylicia and Ivy think if she really wanted to break up with him, she has so many options. Rana realizes she truly doesnt want things to end with him.

On her walk home, Ranas on the phone with Vincent. After a long conversation he reminds her that he loves her and wants to make things right, even though they both have alot to think about. It takes her awhile but she responds with a "love you too". When they end the conversation, Rana needs to take a seat and think about what shes going to do with him.
