Greek: Your Friends & Neighbors

by Gary Ballinger on March 2, 2010

Cast of ABC Family's Greek

This week opens up with Casey working on her personal statement for law school applications as Cappie ponders picking a major (finally).  Casey’s first choice is CRU which is great because Cappie has decided he should be done in three more years closing out his college career in a “speedy” seven years.  The men of Kappa Tau also welcome their new neighbors; a lovely nerdy couple has moved in right next door…just what the brothers need!

In an effort to maintain a relationship with the neighbors (one of whom is a professor) the Kappa Tau boys invite him over for a game of pool.  This turns into a game of monkey hump which apparently is a combination of pool, beer pong, and gambling.  One thing leads to another and neighbor Tom is so engrained with Kappa Tau that he is soon found passed out in the backyard of Kappa Tau.  Cappie makes Tom an honorary pledge and he is christened with the nickname, T-Bag.  The other pledges aren’t happy that someone as old as their dad is hanging around the house so they urge Rusty to do something about it so he decides to haze him.  The campus police arrive to investigate a noise complaint and a drunken T-Bag and his sixteen year old intoxicated daughter are hoisted over the fence to avoid detection and save T-Bag’s career and the Kappa Tau charter.

Beaver confesses to Cappie that he had sex with Rebecca, or at least he thinks he had sex with Rebecca but isn’t 100% convinced (due to his extreme intoxication and a supposed fling with Wonder Woman).  Cappie confronts Rebecca about the fling and gives her some advice on the ins and outs of relationships.  Rebecca goes on an endless search looking for the necklace that Evan gave her for Valentine’s Day.

Casey meets with Joel to discuss her law school applications and she finds out that Joel has been married and divorced and is a fan of the Backstreet Boys which somehow inspired him to become a lawyer (inspiration comes in many forms).  Katherine is having residual feelings for Rusty and wants to seek Casey’s advice on how to keep things going.  She volunteers to help out Casey with her statement since she has already been accepted to Yale Law School.  Ashleigh is a little jealous that Casey is relying on Katherine for help on her personal statement and begins to think that they are drifting apart.

Grant discovers that the petty cash fund is $500 short and the Omega Chi brothers start to point fingers of suspension at each other.   Calvin hatches a plan to save the day and hands out an envelope to every Omega Chi brother.  Whoever stole the money is asked to return it in the envelope by tomorrow morning and no questions will be asked.  As Evan and Calvin go through the envelopes the next morning Calvin finds the envelope with the returned money.  Calvin is disappointed because he marked the envelopes secretly and notices that the money was returned in an envelope marked “EC” for none other than his big brother, Evan.  Evan confesses to Calvin that he wanted to borrow the money so he could buy a present for Rebecca and he had every intention to return it…and another relationship will be strained as Calvin expresses his disappointment in his brother and friend.

This week we saw a number of relationships tested and the future is still unsure for many of them.  Casey and Rebecca struggled to keep their relationship strong as they mature and start to move in different directions.  They both realize the importance of their friendship and begin to acknowledge that it takes some work to maintain that relationship.  They finally understand that growing up doesn’t mean growing apart, but that their friendship will take a certain amount of work and commitment to keep it strong and nurturing.
