None of those adjustments had been significantly surprising, however they arrange conditions properly for subsequent season.

Let’s begin for the worst of the will-they-or-won’t-they storylines: Spencer and Olivia.

You know Spencer and Liv belong collectively when Dillon and his sassy girlfriend made enjoyable of Spencer’s assertions that he and Olivia had been wonderful buddies. Grace tried to be supportive, suppressing an acceptable eye roll.

Liv was flying out that night time for London, and Spencer was decided to maintain issues informal, regardless that his coronary heart advised him one thing totally different.

Likewise, Olivia was keen to play issues nevertheless Spencer needed, regardless that she longed to get again collectively.

Spencer did plan a particular closing day for Liv, starting with Grace’s contribution of a blanket composed of previous shirts of Billy.

It rapidly turned clear Spencer knew little about Great Britain, from his terrible British accent to Dillon’s well illustrated e book of pretend English phrases. But he meant nicely.

While Spencer was taking Liv on this journey into their previous and his future, weirdness was taking place again on the seashore home.

J.J., who found a hidden engagement ring, set off that strangeness. Leave it to J.J. to spice issues up, even when he did not imply to.

Making issues worse was new housemate Jaymee spying the ring on the counter.

 

She made the logical assumption everybody else did: The ring was Asher’s, and he meant to suggest to his child mama, Jaymee.

Surprisingly, that despatched her right into a panic, greater than being pregnant and residing along with Asher. She fled to the Baker home and Layla, who managed to calm Jaymee’s lively creativeness down, for a time anyway.

Then Jaymee received revved up once more whereas Asher’s father, Harold, advised them what a foul concept it was for them to be having a child. That led to Asher’s banning Harold from his household’s life.

Asher knew the ring wasn’t his. He ought to have been in a position to put collectively whose ring it was, however he had an excessive amount of else on his thoughts on the time.

J.J. set Asher straight, mentioning Harold could also be an overhearing drunk, however a minimum of he confirmed up, not like J.J.’s absentee dad and mom.

That led Asher to present Harold another probability to be a part of his grandchild’s life, full with varied situations. Will Gwen get the identical deal?

At least Asher and Jaymee agreed they weren’t able to marry but. But they’d fewer qualms about turning into dad and mom? Wait till Asher will get medical insurance from his teaching job. They may suppose in another way between the brand new child and Jaymee’s lupus.

Jordan was performing flat-out bizarre, though we did finally be taught why. He freaked out at Laura’s try and proceed household breakfasts with out Billy.

He went to the South Crenshaw trophy case to commune with Billy. Preach noticed him and provided to function a sounding board for Jordan ought to he ever need to discuss.

When Layla advised him about Asher’s engagement ring, he appeared oddly detached, unwilling to speak to Asher about it. There was a very good cause for that, it turned out.

Next, he stormed off when Layla joked with him throughout seashore soccer and once more when Layla listed all the explanations Asher and Jaymee should not get married. That was exactly what he did not need to hear.

He took up Preach on his supply and, as is his wont, Preach set him straight, telling him to not waste time combating with these he cherished.

Jordan’s proposal to Layla had been arrange however nonetheless felt surprising. Not having discovered from his marriage to Simone, Jordan was on the lookout for stability, so he proposed to the one that had made him really feel protected throughout this difficult time following Billy’s dying.

Jordan’s parroting Preach’s phrases led Spencer to hurry to the airport, the place he and Olivia admitted they nonetheless love one another, simply in time for her to take off to London for 3 months.

Coop additionally determined she actually needed to get again along with Patience and broke up with Skye. As Coop and Spencer appeared into their hearts, Skye was a placeholder, like Alicia.

She might have come to that conclusion a little bit too late, as Patience’s psycho fan Miko stabbed her. With All American possible having to trim the solid for subsequent season, issues do not look good for Patience, do they?

Finally, the grownup characters had a second or two.

With Liv headed to London and Jordan residing on the seashore home, Laura was growing empty-house syndrome.

She well invited Grace over for some much-needed recommendation. Grace’s state of affairs wasn’t precisely the identical as Laura’s. She misplaced a associate and had one little one transfer out, so it wasn’t an empty nest. Also, she has since remarried.

Grace’s recommendation was sound, suggesting Laura retains busy with actions she enjoys. So possibly Laura does change into a professor subsequent season.
