    Now that they have finally sold their home in Kansas, Harry and Debbie have a yard sale, Beverly Hills-style. Meanwhile, Donna talks to Kelly about her separation, and later search for a place for Donna to open a clothing store; Dixon helps Silver in her recovery; Liam and Ethan's unlikely friendship continues; and when a scandal involving Naomi's father comes to light, her trust in Annie begins to falter. Another awesome episode from 90210. Ethan going bad? Naomi and Annie trying to be friends again - which I'm happy about I like them being friends. Looks like Doona is back for good. I love the way Liam is - hot and cold, it's so hot but I feel sorry for Naomi. Well another awesome episode - I love the way 90210 is just a show that I can sit and watch, can't wait for the next episode.

    In this episode of 90210, the following happens. Donna asks whether should she stay in Beverley Hills or go back to Japan. Annie learns from her father that Naomi's father is being sued, although Naomi doesn't know about it yet.

    Soon Naomi's father goes to see her, to tell her that he is being sued and so she has to move back home with him, for his image. Donna finds the perfect space for her new store and so she leases it and has a big opening party for it. We also see Silver getting back to her old self, whilst she feels like an outsider as everyone is talking about her. When asked at the end when she is returning to school, we learn that she is leaving West Bev High and is going to be going to a Catholic school called St Claire's and it's an all girls school. Annie offers Naomi to stay with her for a while, and her parents agree that it's ok. Adrianna meets some potential adoptive parents for her baby, but can't make up her mind. Navid offers to be there for Adrianna and her baby and that he wants to be with both of them, and even suggests that they get married. At first she says no, but quickly changes her mind to yes.

    Annie and Naomi decide to give their friendship another shot. Meanwhile, Annie's parents try to sell things from their home in Kansas, which has finally sold. Silver's video is still a popular topic at school. Donna makes a decision on whether or not she will stay in Japan with David or purchase office space in California. Adrianna and Navid meet with potential adoptive parents. I liked this episode. I don't think it was the best episode yet, as the database claims, but it was still good. I feel bad for Donna and for Silver. I like that Annie and Naomi are going to be friends though. It obviously won't last, but I like that they are friends now. I think Adrianna is really thinking about keeping the baby now. It was a good episode that I found 100% enjoyable. Keep 'em coming. :)
  • Silly 90210, this show is not good!

    After writing a few recent reviews about how 90210 was turning around, getting back on track and potentially developing into a solid series they give us an episode like this that makes me take all of my praise back.



    Brutal, would be an understatement and would not do this justice. From Harry acting like a complete goofball, to a predictably cliched chance encounter at a lesbian bar there was nothing we haven't seen before.



    I have remarked how 90210 has "borrowed" things from Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill before, but it was taken to a new level tonight. Navid and Adrianna getting married at age 16? Yeah, that does not remind me of Haley and Nathan Scott at all. And try to tell me that those girls mocking Naomi and Silver were not carbon copies of the "girls on the steps" from Gossip Girl.
  • Annie and Naomi start spending time together.

    Let me just start off by saying that all things considered, I absolutely loved this episode. All of the storylines were great, especially the Adrianna and Navid storyline which was my favorite storyline of the episode and Donna and Kelly's storyline was my second favorite storyline. I loved all of the scenes between Adrianna and Navid. I absolutely love them together. They're my favorite couple on the show, and I'm so excited that they decided to get married. That should be really interesting, and I'm really anxious to see where that all goes. Donna and Kelly's storyline was absolutely hilarious. I loved all of their scenes. I also loved the scenes between Ryan and Kelly when they hook up with each other. I'm really anxious to see where the whole situation with Naomi and Annie goes, especially now that Naomi is living with the Wilson's. I'm also anxious to see where Silver's storyline goes too. The whole Debbie and Harry storyline with their yard sale was pretty entertaining too. In closing, I think that this was a very well written, well acted and well made episode of 90210 from everyone involved, and I can't wait to see the next episode of 90210.
  • The promo for this episode was really misleading.

    IN the promotional trailer of this episode, it showed Naomi saying she wanted to destroy Annie, turns out they were talking about Foosball. So that was a disappointment. The promo showed Silver acting crazy and irrational saying she doesn't want to go to school anymore. Turns out Dixon calms her down like a second later. Donna stays in Beverly Hills. The thing I did like about this episode was Kelly doing Ryan. "Shut up Ryan!" That made me laugh. I also like how the psychic seemed to be right about everything. Liam & Naomi kiss at the end "unexpectedly" Seriously stop reusing the same scene over & over again! Navid & Adrianna decide to get married. What's going to happen now?

    what in the world.... this episode was okai... but it wasn't any hype to the episode..... except for Navid asking Adrianna to marry him..... and plus that's mess up how everybody is treating Silver.... everybody has their ups and downs..... I also find it interesting that Naomis father is being sued for sexual harrasment..... He always seemed like a pervert since he cheated on Naomi's mother and then cheated on his mistress with a realestate agent what a freak....... And kelly got her swerve on with Mr. Matthews... i always knew they were goin to get together it was just a matter of time..... and plus Liam getting Eathan to skip school was like wow.... Eathan is supposed to be the smart jock that doesn't skip school he should really seperate himself from Liam before it's too late... Liam really need to stop playing wit Naomi's mind i mean does he like her or not or is he just in it for sex?????? But donna should really figure out wether she wants to be with david or not i mean she sacrificed her friends and family to go to Japan with him.... so he should sacrifice something for her.......But overall this episode was good..........
