|||
[[Marissa Cooper|Marissa]], [[Summer Roberts|Summer]], and [[Taylor Townsend|Taylor]] help prepare for the upcoming graduation ceremony and discuss their [[sex]] lives. [[Julie Cooper|Julie]] delivers a letter to Marissa which was initially sent by her father, [[Jimmy Cooper (The O.C.)|Jimmy]]. The letter offers a job for a year with her father on a boat. However, she only has 1 night to make her decision. Ryan supports Marissa's plans to work on the boat. |
|||
Dawn stops by the Cohen's house for graduation; [[Kaitlin Cooper]] returns home, hoping to out of the title as "Marissa's little sister" in Harbor High School next year. Seth tells the truth to his father, that he caused the fire with a [[Marijuana|joint]]. |
|||
At the graduation ceremony, the proud parents of Ryan, Marissa, Seth, Summer, and Taylor tearfully applaud their children's completion of high school. Later that night, the Cohens, Coopers, and Roberts collectively attend a dinner and Sandy makes a toast. |
|||
Marissa tries to notify her mother of her plans to leave, but Julie reveals to Marissa that she already knew, and then Kaitlin appears and informs both of them that she knew as well and that dad thought Julie would need another daughter to worry about. Julie presents Marissa with her graduation present, a pearl necklace. Julie also admits to the mistakes she has made as a mother, however Marissa forgives her and tells her that she loves her unconditionally. Julie, Kaitlin and Marissa share an emotional "Cooper family hug". |
|||
Dawn presents Ryan with a car as a graduation gift. Taylor and Sung-Ho plan to go to Sung’s home town in the DMZ to help defuse land mines. |
|||

|||
Sandy visits the DA's office to meet on "neutral ground" - and pays a visit to his old office. Kirsten tells Seth that the fire was the best thing that could have happened to him (Sandy). Ryan gives Volchok the money that they got from pawning Marissa’s present, and he then proceeds to have an angry fit when Marissa drives up and refuses to talk to him again. |
|||
Sandy decides not to return to the Newport Group. The Core Four return to the model home for a swim and reflect on the past, and the journey which has united the "Core Four", for this is the final time they will ever be together again. Seth presents Summer with her graduation present, a huge box with his little letter of admission to [[Rhode Island School of Design]]. |
|||
As Ryan and Marissa are driving to the airport, a drunken Volchok rams Ryan and Marissa off the road and onto a hill. The car flips over, and lands upside down. Ryan isn't hurt very badly and breaks the door window to get out and goes around to the other side to save Marissa before a gas leak causes his car to explode. Ryan, who's holding an almost lifeless Marissa, hits his knees and tells her that he's going to go get help. But Marissa begs him to stay with her. She stays alive for a minute, then she looks at Ryan sadly until her eyes go blank. Before he is able to get help, she passes away in his arms. As he cries with Marissa in his arms, he remembers the time when he carried Marissa to the hospital when overdosed in Tijiuana. He also remembers the time he thought he had to leave Newport forever and sees Marissa waving goodbye at the end of her driveway. |
