The next year of school starts in a week. Tiffani is going to study oceanography at the University of Hawaii. Sam is going to study physics at Oxford, while Mark is going to study music at Juliard. Sly and Lorena are both going to attend Pacific University, while Tony is going to go off and study acting. Jake tries to keep the band together by scoring a record contract.

Jake isn't sure that he wants to go on without the rest of the band.

I Really liked the show. I Want them to put the show on DVD. I haven't seen that show in a long time but would love to see it again. I really don't know what else to say about it. I know it will be to late for a cd from that show but it's to late for that
