[1] After a long summer, Tinsley Carmichael returns to Waverly Academy, hoping to regain her place as the "It Girl".

However, she receives a rude shock when she discovers that Jenny Humphrey is living in her old room, and upon their introduction, Tinsley immediately dislikes her.

Tinsley hears rumours about Brett and the young new teacher Eric Dalton, and decides to meet him.

Torn between a relationship with Easy and school popularity, Jenny kisses a pizza delivery boy, Angelo, at a Cafe Society meeting to fit in with the other members.

Eventually, she gets back with Jeremiah, her ex-boyfriend from St. Lucius, after Jenny leaves a message on his phone about how much Brett is still in love with him.

Jeremiah plays the message for Easy when they are at a Café Society overnight trip in Boston, and both of them leave immediately for their girls back home at Waverly.
