Spoiler: 90210 - The day the volcano exploded and everything changed

This week really is the week of season finales. Here is a summary of yet another one. And, boy, was it just a tad bit crazy.

- Dixon is still mad at Silver because of the speech she made last week after being named prom queen. Dixon admits to Ethan that his relationship with Silver is never easy but that he loves her anyway. It is, again, very obvious Ethan has romantic feelings for Silver, though it seems as if no one else has yet caught on. When talking with Ethan later, Silver questions her relationship with Dixon and forces Ethan into saying the two make a good couple. Near the end of the episode Dixon confronts Ethan and says he knows Ethan likes Silver. Ethan at first lies but eventually admits it and even Silver hears. Silver chases after Ethan and he kisses her. When she tries to deny she has feelings for him, Ethan then asks her why it is that she followed him instead of talking to Dixon.
- Adriana's water broke at the end of last week's episode. This week we see her in labor. Adriana freaks out because it is three weeks early and, thus, she feels she is not ready. The baby's heart rate drops and the doctors have to perform an emergency c-section. Following delivery, Navid brings in the baby, a girl, but Adriana refuses to hold her. We do find out that the adoptive parents are on their way. Brenda shows up, in a Cleopatra costume, and takes Adriana on a walk. They walk past a door where the patient's last name is Walsh and Brenda says it is her father who is on his death bed. Then a dragon shows up and we find out it was a dream. But it proves to Adriana that she needs to say goodbye to the baby or she will regret it. So she goes to the baby and holds her. Ty also stops by the hospital, and in an act I was not expecting, steps up and tells Navid he respects how he has been there for Adriana. The real Brenda, not the dream one, then comes to the hospital and talks Adriana through giving up her baby by talking about the importance of adoption, something she knows first hand having just returned from China where she adopted a baby.
- Naomi is begged by a fellow classmate to throw the post-prom party. Jen tells her she can't, but since Naomi is paying for everything she says it really is her house so she makes the call and agrees to host the party. But then Naomi hears that Adriana is in labor so she goes to the hospital instead of to the party and leaves Annie in charge of looking after the house. Meanwhile, everyone is still mad at Annie because they think she is the person who told her father about the planned party, though she was not. At the party, Liam draws a picture of Annie as a volcano and notices that she is nearing her breaking point. Also, while Liam is by himself near the pool, Naomi's sister Jen starts conversation with him, saying she is a neighbor, and tells him she knows about his past, a story he told Naomi in confidence. While, for the beginning of the episode, things were looking up for Naomi and Liam, and he was acting surprisingly compassionate, his personal life being passed around as gossip was enough to make him angry at Naomi. So when Jen, masquerading as someone else, propositions sex, he takes her up on the offer. Naomi walks in on Liam getting dressed and, seeing a wrap Annie wore earlier in the night, assumes he slept with Annie. Naomi then goes downstairs looking for Annie. Meanwhile, upstairs, Jen slips that she is Naomi's sister, which pisses Liam off because he realizes the action was in spite and he actually calls her a bitch. Naomi confronts Annie and kicks her out of the house. Annie finally does reach her breaking point and slams the front door enough to break the glass. She then calls the cops complaining about the noise coming from the party. As the episode ended, there were three scene flashes that concluded the season. First, we see Jen comforting Naomi as she cries about Liam, when in reality it was Jen's doing. Second, we see Liam calling and leaving a message for Naomi apologizing, followed by two men bursting into his room and taking him to military school. Last, we see Annie driving with a partly-empty bottle of vodka sitting on the driver's seat. In the closing seconds Annie hits something, freaks and drives off.

So there it is. The 90210 remake's first season is complete. Were you pleased with how it ended? I was looking down taking notes just as Annie hit the "thing" in the road. Did anyone see what it was? Is it a person or an animal? Overall, did the episode leave you wanting more? Leave it here.

  1. They didn't show what it was - BUT a car (I believe was a grey/silver Mercedes) with CA tags and a WBHH (West Beverly High School) bumper sticker was a short distance behind her, and then stopped at the object that was hit. We're made to think it was a body - but could be a larger animal - it's unclear (I was actually searching for any hints when I found your posting)... whatever it was, was dark and large. The car and the zoom in on the WBHH stucker was key also.
