Reunion

Episode Number: 236    Season Num: 8    First Aired: Wednesday April 15, 1998    Prod Code: 2197228
The gang prepares for its five-year high school reunion. Andrea returns for the event; after initially pretending that her life is perfect, she reveals that she is divorcing Jesse. Brandon tries to convince her to work things out; but she has already tried every possible solution, even dropping out of medical school to spend more time with her family. Andrea does not want to speak at the reunion, so Brandon takes her place and delivers a speech with the theme "it's okay to be yourself." Kelly becomes disgusted when Ross Webber, the guy who humiliated her after she lost her virginity to him, tries to exchange pleasantries. Valerie gives Ross a dressing-down and helps Kelly eradicate some old graffiti about her. Steve is upset that his classmates expect him to bring a bimbo to the reunion. Janet volunteers to be his date to help him change his image. He completely ignores her to chase after a beautiful classmate. The woman is actually plotting revenge against Steve for mistreating her in school (when she was a geek); she arranges a prank in which he appears naked before the entire gathering. Steve shows up at Janet's house late at night to apologize, but she decides not to date him. Valerie attends the reunion with David and savors the chance to be anonymous. She claims that she works with the poor and that David is an international rock star. Donna becomes angry when a magazine names Noah one of L.A.'s most eligible bachelors.
