Beth calls in a family counselor because of the constant fighting between Anna, Thomas and Bobby. Wayne has got family problems too.

Wayne's former school is about to be closed and - emotionally attached to the school - he promises to get the money to prevent this. Anna is nearly date-raped.

The school's recess hall will be given to Bigelow Constructions, annoying the students. Beth leads Jodie and a reluctant Anna to protest, resulting in a suspended Anna.
