Lucas goes to see Peyton and the two express their love for each other, finally able to live their relationship as they find themselves happy for the first time in a very long time. In high school, Haley is limping into school on her crutches as Nathan catches up with her offering her help. Meanwhile, Brooke is joined by an overjoyed Rachel wearing her clean teens jumper as she has more attention with it on, and has been taking full advantage of that. She is shocked that Brooke is still studying calculus, even though they stole the test paper, but Brooke admits she is feeling bad, just as Shelley passes. Shelley is shocked that Brooke isn’t wearing her jumper and gives her a spare one, much to Brooke’s disappointment. She takes the sweater as Brooke Davis sees the newest member of Clean Teens, Chase Adams. In shock at how much she likes him, she throws her sweater on and introduces herself, as a Clean Teen.
Chase is in the library as Brooke watches him from a distance. Pretending to read a book, she bumps into him and is shocked as he pays her no attention. She goes to sit with Mouth and complains that the new guy won’t talk to her, as Mouth is infuriated that there is a new boy. Brooke then asks what virgins talk about, as Mouth protests that Chase is a virgin by choice, he is not. He tells Brooke just to go and talk to him, but Brooke refuses just as Shelley approaches. Brooke is told she has to attend an emergency clean teen meeting tonight as Mouth is in awe with Shelley. Brooke introduces them as Shelley gives the same reaction to Mouth as she walks off, the two agree it is not easy to talk to hot virgins. In class, Lucas is caught passing notes to Peyton. The teacher asks him to read it out, and he does happily. The note is about how much he loves Peyton, and the teacher asks Peyton if she wishes to reply, so she kisses him. Shocked, the teacher gives them both detention, but Peyton believes it was worth it. Meanwhile, Skills tells Nathan about a stripping competition that has a $1000 prize and wants Nathan to do it to earn some money. Nathan refuses as he is not that desperate but Skills tells him to think about it. Dan is helping Karen at the cafe kitchen as Deb walks in on them. Shocked, she tells Karen how stupid she is behaving letting Dan back in and tells her that Keith would roll over in his grave if he saw them together. Dan leaves an upset Karen. In math class, Brooke is regretting cheating, but is soon thrilled as she gets an A, and Chase begins talking to her, asking her to tutor him. Rachel snickers, but Brooke agrees to it and is thrilled at how smart she seems. Peyton is going through her records and is correcting Lucas on where her records go. The two begin flirting once again as Peyton decides to take him to the cemetery to her mom’s grave and introduces her to Lucas, saying he is the guy who makes her laugh again. As she does, Lucas tells her mom Peyton is the most important thing he has in his life, just as Peyton asks for a second alone. She sits down and continues her conversation with her dead mom on how good Lucas is. Meanwhile, Lucas goes to Keith’s grave and remembers Keith telling him to open his eyes in the school corridor. He remembers Peyton standing at his grave and being back in the corridor of the shooting. He tries to remember what he saw that day and remembers Keith leaning over Jimmy’s dead body. As Peyton approaches asking what is wrong, Lucas tells her that he doesn’t think that Jimmy killed Keith. Peyton is shocked at his confession.
Haley is trying to fit into one of many dresses thrown around her bedroom. As Nathan walks in, Haley yells that she is too big to fit into any and that she isn’t going to be able to walk in time for prom. Nathan tells her she might be able to walk, as Haley tells him that nothing fits her and they don’t have the money to pay for a new one. She begins to cry as she slams the bathroom door shut on Nathan. With this in mind, Nathan goes to see Skills and Mouth and agrees to doing the strip club. Skills puts music on and asks for Nathan to show him how he can dance, and the two are soon shocked at Nathan’s bad dancing. Skills goes to see Peyton and asks for a good track to dance to whilst telling Peyton how good her and Lucas are together. Peyton soon finds out that Nathan and him are stripping and begs him to tell Lucas. Skills agrees but asks her to tell some girls as well so they have a chance of winning. Back in school, Brooke asks Chase what is in the tutoring for her, so Chase agrees to take her out to dinner. The emergency meeting is called, as Shelley shows a video of Rachel in her Clean Teens jumper stripping. Shelley kicks her out of the club, as Rachel asks to keep the shirt, but Shelley refuses. Rachel takes her top off and tells Brooke to come with her, but Brooke decides to stay, disappointing Rachel. Lucas goes to see Karen at the cafe and she tells him that she approves of Peyton and him and is very happy that the two of them have finally found each other considering he has loved her for years. As she compares them to her and Keith, Lucas tells her about seeing him and him showing him the shooting, as if Jimmy hadn’t killed Keith. However, Karen tells him it was just a dream and it is just because he is struggling to come to terms with it. Karen then warns him never to take Peyton for granted. Meanwhile, Brooke and the tutors, including Haley, are gathered in the tutor center with the Principal. He tells them all that the tests are missing from the files, prompting Brooke to ask why she is there, but the Principal says it is because she is the student president, as Brooke is relieved she is not being caught. The Principal asks for a list of students who were being tutored and when they find out who it was, they will be expelled, or worse.
Leaving the school, Haley is telling Brooke how certain she is that it is Rachel who stole the tests. However, Brooke defends her saying she would know if she stole them. Brooke rushes home and tells Rachel how the school is searching for the papers and the thief as Rachel admits she didn’t return them, but is too annoyed at Brooke for betraying her than to care. As Brooke defends herself, Rachel says it was because of Chase she didn’t leave and he doesn’t like her. Brooke however, says she could get Chase if she wanted, but Rachel disagrees. As Brooke continues to defend herself, Rachel asks Brooke to bet on it. Preparing for the stripping dance, Mouth gets the costumes, he shows Nathan a gold thong, as Nathan is shocked, but they laugh revealing the actual tracksuit costume they will be wearing. Lucas gets to Peyton’s house to find the whole house filled with smoke. He runs in the kitchen to find Peyton attempting and failing to make his favorite food, chocolate chip cookies. The two decide they are chaos junkies and laugh it off. Lucas reveals that he told Karen but she didn’t believe him and instead he hurt her. He tells her that he wants to forget it all and just be happy together with ber, something Peyton is willing to abide by. Dan goes to Keith’s grave to see Karen there too. As they meet, Karen asks Dan over for dinner as Lucas is out, which Dan happily agrees to. He gets home to find Deb collapsed out on the sofa. He wakes her up by pouring water on her and commends her for her performance in front of Karen. Deb asks why he is making Karen suffer, but Dan tells her it is sincere. He then asks Deb about the night before their wedding, Deb remembers him disappearing at the rehearsal dinner, which Dan tells her that he drove outside of Karen’s house as he knew he was making a mistake as Karen was the love of his life and he made a mistake settling for Deb. He tells her that he never loved her and that he just settled for her. Furious and upset, Deb tells him that her and Nathan’s life are so much better without him poisoning it. But Dan corrects her, saying Nathan threw her out long before Dan did.
With this in mind, she storms to her son’s apartment only for Haley to answer the door. She begs to see her son, but Haley refuses to let him see her in the state she is in, so Deb tries to barge through. She knocks Haley off her crutches and to the ground just as Nathan walks in and finds out what has happened. Deb apologizes as Nathan tells her to go away and pretend he does not exist. On their dinner, Brooke asks Chase why he has never had sex, but Chase admits he wanted to wait for the right moment and the right girl. As she quizzes about his old girlfriends, Chase tells her about a serious relationship he had, but the girl had been cheating on him the whole time, with his best friend. Brooke is shocked and tells Chase the same sort of thing happened with her and her best friend and boyfriend, twice. He tells Brooke that he joined Clean Teens to start over and that the next relationship he gets into will be with someone who he can trust and is completely honest, making Brooke feel slightly guilty. At the strip club, Nathan is freaking out that Rachel and Bevin are in the audience and asks if they told Haley. Mouth says he didn’t, but they told Peyton who told Lucas, so she might be there. Meanwhile, Peyton goes to see Haley and makes her get dressed as she has something to show her. On their walk back home, Chase asks Brooke to dance with the street band. He teaches her how to dance and Brooke is overjoyed as Chase tells her that he learned to dance by watching his parents and how in love they were when they danced, just as he realizes how fast Brooke’s heart is beating.
At the nightclub, an obese man is finishing his routine to an amused audience. Nathan and Mouth watch as they think they are the top competition considering everyone else is out of shape.

Brooke's new crush Chase is impressed by her Clean Teen status and calculus grades, but she has to choose between keeping up the façade and betraying Rachel; whilst the loved up Lucas and Peyton adjust to their new relationship. Meanwhile, Deb's addiction spirals out of control.
So if a situation were to turn bad, he'd be able to bring some lightheartedness into it and help Millie loosen up, but they'd still both be working on solving the problem. I also feel like they'd be very faithful and respectful to each other, and they'd have more chemistry than Mouth and Millie imo.
