Okay. ''Sorority Row'' is '''really''' about the [[Ragtag Bunch of Misfits|ragtag bunch of]] [[Idiot Ball|dumb]], [[My Girl Is Not a Slut|slutty]] sorority sisters of Theta Pi who, on the night of one of the biggest sorority parties of the year, [[A Simple Plan|plan to prank]] Garrett, the ex-boyfriend who dumped their friend Megan (Audrina Patridge) for another woman. [[Idiot Plot|They plan to do so by telling Garrett that Megan overdosed on a drug he gave her and died, with Megan faking death herself]]. Of course, [[It Got Worse|shit happens]] and Garrett kills Megan, [[What an Idiot!|taking the suggestion of one of the girls to stab her with a tire iron]] and dump her in a lake inside a mine so nobody finds out. Everybody pledges to never reveal the details of Megan's death, [[Genre Blind|so obviously]] somebody finds out, ''[[I Know What You Did Last Summer (Film)|I Know What You Did Last Summer]]''-style, and starts killing off each of the bitches ([[My Friends and Zoidberg|and Garrett]]) using the same tire iron used to kill Megan <ref> Maybe it was [[Incredibly Lame Pun|made of]] [[Irony]]?</ref> in a fit of revenge.

*** Not really, it's closer to Jessica, Claire and Ellie wanting to pin ''all'' the blame on Garrett but Cassidy and Chugs standing against them (Cassidy because she's too moral to absolve the girls of their role in the murder and Chugs because she's defending her brother). That's going to tear serious holes in the 'Garrett did everything in cold blood and we had nothing do with it' party line so Jessica drops it out of pragmatism.
