I came to the city with the sun in my eyes My mouth full of laughter and dreams But all that I found was concrete and dust And hard times sold in vending machines

A Plot

Ashley is still deadset on going to England for the summer leaving Craig behind. Craig doesn't want her leave, and is moping around. He gets into a confrontation with Spinner and Jay (who are catering the Kevin Smith film with The Dot) and the first think Ashley asks him is if he took his meds which ticks Craig off. Caitlin encourages Craig to go with England with Ashley, but Joey doesn't think it's a good idea, especially after his mental illness diagnosis. Craig takes affront to Joey's concerns and hates people thinking he is crazy. Joey comes around and gives him a ticket to London, on conditions he checks in every day and Ashley's dad watches over him. He goes over to tell Ashley the good news, but Ashley flat out tells him not to follow her because she needs space from worrying about Craig's health and mental state. She leaves Craig behind, and goes off to the airport in tears. At home, Craig lies to Joey about Ashley rejecting his companionship to England and going upstairs and throws his meds away. The next morning, Joey and Caitlin wish him luck on his way to England but Craig tells the taxi driver they're other plans...

B Plot

The filming for Jay and Silent Bob Go Canadian, Eh has begun, and Kevin Smith is utilizing Degrassi students and Alanis Morissette in the movie. Caitlin is interviewing Kevin and Kevin is a big fan of her work on Ryan's Planet and mercilessly flirts with her. Caitlin shows the interview to her boss who wanted some gossipy content from her piece. Caitlin refuses and edits the story her way. She also gets a call from a producer in Los Angeles who wants to revive her old show, Ryan's Planet. That would mean Caitlin leaving Joey, Craig and Angie behind. Caitlin at first, is thinking of rejecting the offer due to her family. Kevin reveals that he was the one who set of Ryan's Planet being revived. He doesn't want Caitlin producing anymore puff pieces and do more hard-hitting news, Caitlin is upset. At her job, her boss is upset with her piece and wanted more celebrity dirt. Caitlin is fed up and quits. She gets drunk with Kevin at the bar and has a drunk makeout session with him. She flees the bar, and goes home and asks Joey to marry her.
