Recap

The episode begins with Paige, Spinner, and Craig standing around a used red car at Jeremiah Motors, with Craig and Paige suggesting nicknames for the car. Finally, Spinner decides to name it the "Love Mobile", and they christened it with a bottle of water. Joey comes over, and reminds Spinner that he hasn't bought the car yet. Spinner, with a wad of $2,700 he earned at The Dot in his hands, reluctantly gives Joey the money, and Joey gives Spinner the keys to his new car. Spinner and Paige then goes on a ride through the city. After a while, Spinner takes Paige home, and they make plans for the evening, but a police car shows up. The police officer walks up to Spinner's vehicle, and asks for Paige. He hands her a clipboard, and it informs her that she's due to appear in court, because she filed a sexual assault case two years prior, a few months after she was raped. Paige wasn't expecting this, and isn't sure that she's ready to face her rapist...

Episode Quotes
Craig: Yeah, the guy (his father) is half eaten by worms and he's still trying to buy me. Pathetic!

Ashley: You know you guys should try going a little more post-Emo. Still punk, but less mopey.
Craig: I don't think the other guys even know what regular emo is. Spinner probably thinks it's a muppet.

Mr. Simpson: Oh fries and gravy! Good on a plate, not so good on a keyboard.
