Spinner hasn't talked to Jimmy since the shooting, and his part in it leaves him wracked with guilt. The more time Spinner spends with Jimmy, the more guilty Spinner feels - until he confesses to the part he played.... Spinner feels better, but Jimmy doesn't.

    "Terrible"
    Spoilers:
    This is the worst episode of D:TNG that I have ever seen. If the rest of the episodes this season(in America) are like this I will cry.
    It was unrealistic and almost everything about it was forced.
    They turned what happened with rick into a typical issue about bullies and school shootings in a very generic way.

    Rick did not become the way he was because of bullying he was already like that!
    This is my major issue with this episode.
    They weren\'t true to their own story and instead changed it into something different and generic. And a timely hot topic issue at that.

    If Spinner, Alex, and Jay\'s prank hadn\'t sent him over the edge something else might have and to be honest after what he did to Terri he deserved to be in juvie or a mental hospital, not in school.

    I also strongly dislike the JT/Liberty storyline and think that they changed JT\'s character/made him revert back to childhood.

  • Jimmy returns to Degrassi.

    "Eye of the Tiger" is good Degrassi episode. Jimmy returns to Degrassi after being shot by Rick. Everything seems to be good until Spinner opens his big mouth. I actually enjoyed this episode until Spinner told Jimmy that he was reason that Jimmy's in the wheelchair. I really don't like how Jimmy and all Spinner's friends just alienated him after this episode. Spinner made one mistakes. And Who knew Rick was going to bring a gun to school? I actually like the subplot revovling around JT and Liberty finally dating and Danny doesn't like that JT is dating his sister. I give this episode a 7.5/10.moreless

    Finally, an episode where Aubrey gets to show his chops! Fantastic acting on his part. I felt the pain Jimmy was going through, how hard it was for him to adjust and to return to school in a wheelchair. His conviction that he would never walk again, never be able to play basketball again really tugged at my heartstrings. I also felt for Spinner. He couldn't have known that his actions would have had such horrible consequences for his best friend and I could understand and respect why he felt he had to tell Jimmy. It sucked that he got expelled for it though because Principal HotSauce was being completely unfair to him and Jay.

    The B plot was ok. The fight between JT and Danny was utterly pathetic and the whole "You made my brother bleed" thing was kinda dumb. I love the JT/Liberty relationship though so that aspect was good.moreless

    In this episode, Jimmy returns to Degrassi after rehabilitation in the hospital. as Spinner watches Jimmy come out of the Handicap Shuttle, he is overwhelmed with guilt for lying to Rick about the paint and feathers prank. so he helps Jimmy get through the day by being there for him and helping him out. after school, Spinner still feels guilty so he confesses that he lied to Rick. But Spinner only ends up hanging himself and getting a bad reputation. Jimmy is so stunned and traumatized that he leaves Spinner behind and tells everyone about how he lied to Rick. When Spinner shows up the next day, Marco and Craig bully him and tell him to fix the damage somwhere else ant to stay away from Jimmy. At the party Spinner tries to clean himself to everyone but no one wants him arround. in the end, Spinner confesses to Principal Hatzalakos and what he did to Rick and how he lied about Jimmy.She expells him and Spinner life will never be the same.
    Spinner sure got what he deserved. as Marco said, he needs to fix the damage somewhere else. instead disrupting the patry, he should have gone to Terry's house and proposed. after all he obviously loves her that much to publicly humiliate Rick and say that Jimmy did it. Spinner really wasn't a friend of Jimmy now that it was mentioned, he stole his MP3 player, and took his dancing pants(in Girls Just Want To Have Fun). In fact Spinner was a big jerk. He blamed Emma for his excessive erections, he strangled JT in condums, he got ugly with Toby for liking Kendra, he did awful things to Mrs. Kwan's night class, and other bad things.
    I was kind of dissapointed though when Jimmy didn't mention the MP3 Player theft incident. this episode is more like "Don't Come Around Here No More" or "Leave (Get Out)".moreless

    This was not the best Degrassi episode I've seen so far, but it wasn't horrible, either. I truly thought that Jimmy and Spinner were doomed ever since Spinner tried to sell Jimmy's iPod (not MP3 Player, as stated.) I do believe that Spinner will eventually kill himself somehow, such as driving drunk or setting Degrassi on fire. This will thankfully save the world from his recent speaking inablilities.
