Degrassi: The Power Of Love
Overview
It's the end of the year at Degrassi. Jimmy wants the last dance experience to be perfect for his date and friends before he leaves for the summer, so he treats for dinner and a limo. The limo is a huge disappointment and the driver (played by Billy Ray Cyrus) gets arrested while the kids are having dinner. The bill for the dinner includes the charges for the lunch Paige and Spinner stiffed them on in an earlier episode. When they finally get to the dance, the place is on fire - literally. Sean is failing his classwork from all the late night partying, but Mr. Simpson gives him a last chance to make it up. Feeling guilty for stealing his laptop, Sean comes clean, but getting Mr. Simpson's forgiveness is not easy, until he has car trouble and Sean offers to repair it for only the cost of the parts. Joey asks Caitlin to move in, but she has to take care of business first.
