== Plot == |
|||
The premiere picks up five months after [[Marissa Cooper|Marissa's]] death. [[Ryan Atwood|Ryan]] is washing his hands in a small dirty room with his face cut and bruised. He gets a mysterious phone call just as [[Sandy Cohen|Sandy]] arrives at a downtown pub to visit him. Ryan hears Sandy arrive but jumps out the window to visit the caller. |
|||
[[Julie Cooper]] is also headed somewhere. After taking some pills, she leaves despite [[Kaitlin Cooper|Kaitlin]] reminding her that she's no longer allowed to drive at night. Ryan arrives at hotel room and the door is answered by none other than Julie herself. |
|||
36 hours earlier, and [[Seth Cohen|Seth]] is filling [[Summer Roberts|Summer]] in on what's been happening lately, but Summer's not answering her phone. Instead, she's rallying against cruelty to chickens at Brown. |
|||
[[Kirsten Cohen|Kirsten]] visits Seth at his comic book store with a care package and dinner invitation for Ryan. Seth doubts that Ryan will show up but will ask anyway. |
|||
Meanwhile, [[Dr. Neil Roberts|Dr. Roberts]] confronts Julie about why she's blocking him out and Summer's protesting is interrupted by a call from Taylor, who claims to be in Paris. |
|||
<!-- Deleted image removed: [[Image:Trashmar.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ryan throws away items that remind him of Marissa. '''The Avengers''' (episode 4.1)]] --> |
|||
Kaitlin busts Dr. Roberts with another woman and that night, Ryan opts for a cage wrestling match instead of dinner at the Cohens'. After some calls from Seth, Summer shows up in Newport with a plan to bring Ryan back from the dark side. |
|||
Kirsten visits Julie who blows her off after receiving a mysterious phone call of her own. She then rings up Ryan asking her to meet him at the hotel room. Turns out she has information - Volchok's whereabouts. Ryan declines, claiming he doesn't care. Afterwards he goes back to his room and pulls out a box from under his bed containing photographs and memoirs of Marissa. Then he takes the box outside to the dumpster and throws its contents away. |
|||
After discovering that [[Taylor Townsend|Taylor]] is still in Orange County, Summer invites Ryan to the comic book store where Seth presents him with a comic book showing how much better their lives are after he showed up. |
|||
In a moment of weakness, Summer 'sees' Marissa but blinks it away before shutting the door to the room she 'saw' her in. Summer decides she's not really over the death of her best friend and can't stay in Newport, while Ryan decides he still cares and moves back home with the Cohens. Ryan also decides to take information on [[Kevin Volchok|Volchok]], and realizes he wants revenge. |
