LatestIt's finals week and relationships are put to the test (get it?). Carmen forces Benny to explain his web of lies, Grace makes a discovery, Peter goes to get what's his, Hailee wants to know where her performance enhancing meds are, and Miles wonders what he did wrong. Answers lead to more questions at the final Bader House party of the semester... your jaw is gonna be on the floor, sweetheart!
Closeted former football player and homecoming king Benny becomes fast friends with Carmen, a high school outsider on a mission to fit in at all costs. With guidance from Benny's older sister and her campus-legend boyfriend, Benny and Carmen juggle horrible hookups, flavored vodka, and fake IDs.
