Second half of the first week! We're back at the Nottington house, where nothing much happened, really... Both teens were busy working on scholarship skills.


Isabella continued to date Joel Cooper.


Lexie and Adam both reached the top of their teen careers and became over-achievers. Their parents would be so proud!


Adam didn't quite have the heart to tell Lexie that he'd met someone else, so he dated Kiana Knight on community lots. They're going steady!


But Lexie must've sensed something was up, because she went looking for love in other places herself. This is Zion, a downtownie teen.


Eventually, Adam and Lexie did sit down to have a long talk. They agreed that while they'd always love each other, it didn't mean they were meant to spend the rest of their lives together. It was decided that Adam would leave for college, while Lexie stayed home to work on winning some more scholarships. By the time she was ready to go, he'd be back to take over his parents' house.


At the Dante home, things were a little more eventful. Liza had intended to marry Amin first, but things kept getting in the way, and before you know it she gave birth to a little girl, Marlee.


Javier Vega came for a visit, and headed straight for the baby. Habit, I guess?


Liza thinks it's very sexy the way Amin takes such good care of the baby. (Any males reading this, pay attention!)


And he really does dote on her.


An after-school ritual among the older kids. Gotta get that fun level up so you can take care of homework and other boring stuff!


Way to impress the ladies, Aston! Seriously, this kid would not stop talking about potties. These are two of the Nettles girls - Natalie and Nina, I think.


Yep, here he's talking about potties and cheating at chess. His personality is not too different from his brother's.


Leeland dreams of Bryony. For a romance sim, he doesn't have much trouble staying faithful. Could it be because he and Bryony have three bolts for each other, ever since Leeland borrowed his mom's workout machine to get nice and fit?


Daddy Luke pays a ghostly visit to his replacement, Amin. He's not very happy about this state of affairs - another man raising his children! - and made a nuisance of himself. (Maybe the kids get their lovely personalities from him?)


Well, can't have that, can we? Wave bye-bye, Luke, you're going to the cemetary.


When Bryony calls Leeland the next day to ask him out on a date, he suggests they go to Gothier Green Lawns. He wants to make sure his dad's gravestone arrived safely. After a quick mourn, he and Bryony start to slow dance in the middle of the cemetary. Nooo, this kid isn't morbid at all!


Oh, go ahead and cheat, Aston. If anyone deserves it, it's Marsha!



At the Ryan household, Barbara is now officially Barbara Carr. (Say that quickly five times in a row!) Doesn't Joe look nice in glasses? His goal in life is to earn lots and lots of money, but...


A bad chance card got him demoted. He cried and cried, until the next day when he got promoted again.


Will meets Lily Forsythe. Hmmm.


Jennifer dates Orlando Centowski. Hold on, isn't he supposed to be seeing Kora Knight? Oh well.


Paul gets his first kiss from Sophie Miguel. I'm pretty sure she's been flirting with some other teen as well... but hey, it's a soap family. Can't have soap kids and not involve them in triangles, right?


Will grows up into a family teen. Yeah, 'cause this 'hood really needs more kids... Oh wait, he wants to be a captain hero! That's okay then.
