  • #3 HOW TO GET OVER IT
    Mar 2 2026

    After seeing Evan kissing someone else, Cynthia struggles with jealousy, humiliation, and embarrassment. Looking for a place to cry, she walks in on a group of illicit pot smokers, then on a pair of grappling lovers, and then becomes a witness to forgery!

    Cynthia’s "Introduction to Guitar" class unexpectedly bucks up her spirits and after the ever-glamorous Senora Cordova encourages Cynthia to pull herself together, she meets up with Annabel and Mimi to leave for the U.S. Tennis Open, but they’re not even out of the school parking before Detective Fiducia arrives, triggering what will undoubtedly be a tidal wave of gossip across Brighton High.
