(Seth laid his head on the kitchen table as Ryan walked in)
Ryan: Are you okay buddy?
Seth: Yeah, I'm fine.
Ryan: So today is the big day you are finally going away.
Seth: Yeah, I am.
Ryan: You know it won't be the same here.
Seth: No one is going to miss me
Ryan: Yeah, I will.
Seth: Sure, you will.
Ryan: Seth…
Seth: Listen I am going to get packed.
(Seth disappeared into empty Cohen house leaving a worried looking Ryan their)
(Summer is helping Marissa carry her bags to her car)
Summer: Marissa I am going to miss you.
Marissa: I know, but I think it's for the best.
Summer: Marissa is a college girl now I am so proud.
(Summer was clapping her hands with so much excitement)
Volcheck: Do you mind if I join in the fun?
Summer: Listen, you ass leave Marissa alone.
Marissa: What do you want?
Volcheck: You that's all I want.
Marissa: If that's all you can leave, because I still have a lot to do.
Summer: Yeah leave ass.
Volcheck: Can't I talk to my girlfriend?
Marissa: I'm not your girlfriend.
Volcheck: Marissa please just listen to me.
(Seth finished packing of all of his boxes, and soon found himself outside smoking a cig)
Sandy: Since when do you smoke?
Seth: Well I just always admired those who have, and I just picked up the habit.
Ryan: Seth just talk to us.
Seth: My lips are moving, what do you want me to do next sign language?
Ryan: Don't be a smart ass.
Sandy: I can see he is going to be a tough one to beat/
Ryan: As usual.
Seth: You want to talk?
Ryan: Yes Seth that's all.
Seth: Fine, I'm scared okay.
Ryan: Why?
(Summer left Volchek, and Marissa to talk in the drive way)
Volcheck: I know you want me, I want you too.
Marissa: I don't want you.
Volcheck: Marissa I need you.
Marissa: I wonder where I have heard that before.
Volcheck: Marissa please.
Marissa: I heard enough, and I still have a lot to do.
Volcheck pulled Marissa into his body as his rough hands caressed her body until Marissa was able to push him away.
Volcheck: Get out; I don't want to ever see you again.
Marissa ran back into the house unaware of the approaching body behind her, Julie Cooper waited for Marissa to go inside.
Julie: As I said to someone else before you, Marissa has only loved one person in her whole entire life.
Volcheck: I know, and it's definitely not you.
(Volcheck quickly got on his motorcycle and left the scene to plan his next move.)
(Kirsten finally came back, and had quite an interesting idea that could change Seth's future forever.)
Kirsten: Where is Seth?
Sandy: Yeah he is in a quite a mood now.
Kirsten: Have you talked to him?
Sandy: Yeah I did, but…
Kirsten: What's wrong with him?
Sandy: Ryan is trying to find out now.
Kirsten walked into the pool house where Ryan and Seth were having quite a conversation.
Kirsten: Seth I have quite a proposal for you.
Seth: Mom, I can't accept what will dad think?
Kirsten: Funny Seth very funny.
Seth: Well lay it on me; I'm not getting any younger.
Ryan: You're certainly not getting older either.
Seth: Ryan you are so funny at times.
Kirsten: How would you like to work for Wildstorm comics?
Seth: Yeah, it would be nice.
Kirsten: They want to by Newport Group from us, and they need a knew manager.
Seth: That would be great actually, yeah.
(Julie walked in greeted Marissa, and Summer)
Julie: I can never understand how you dated that guy.
Summer: Yeah me too.
Marissa: Give me break I needed someone to wake me up then.
Julie: I think we all did.
Marissa: Yeah, we did.
( A flash back from earlier was playing in Ryan mind as he searched the mall for the perfect ring)
Ryan: Yeah, Seth I think that you don't want to leave Newport.
Seth: Uh, yeah I do.
Ryan: Its natural to be scared you know.
Seth: Ryan, when did you become so insightful?
Ryan: Since my life has changed quite a bit.
Seth: Well, I feel like everything is changing to fast.
Ryan: Marissa nearly died, you burnt down the Newport Group, I am in a good mood, and Summer well she still Summer.
Ryan: Well, man things change you know that's life.
Seth: Thanks man, but you are kind of scaring me.
( Seth smiled and walked out of the pool house )
( Volcheck was in a small apartment in Newport, and we see bottles of alcohol surrounding his bed. A picture of Marissa on the table next to him, he knocked out with one of the bottles in his hand. )
Volcheck: Who's their?
Johnny: Its me Volchek.
Volcheck: What a loser you can't even pass on can you?
Johnny: I want you to leave Marissa alone.
Volcheck: Marissa, and I belong together.
Johnny: Marissa is happy now, can't you see that?
Volcheck: She needs me.
Johnny: Does she really?
( Volcheck grabbed Johnny by his shirt, he threw punch at Johnny who disappeared in an instant. Volcheck woke up, but he could hear Johnny in his head leave Marissa alone over and over again.)
( Marissa is unpacking her boxes in the dorm room, and flash backs of Trey, Volcheck and the car crash .)
Stranger: So is he your boyfriend?
Marissa: Yeah he is.
Stranger: I'm David.
Marissa: I'm Marissa.
David: I'm almost done backing her, and then the room is all yours.
Marissa: Ok thanks
David: So are you ready for freshman year?
Marissa: I have had a really strange past.
David: I don't think any stranger then mine.
Marissa: You want to bet.
( They discuss their lives as the camera fades out of the dorm room)
