“Wide Awake and Dreaming” recap
Sep 25th, 2008 by 90210
Annie & Ty are in rehearsal for the school musical. They have some intense sexual chemistry.
Annie is understudy for Adrianna, who has been missing some days. Dixon steps in to help Silver (stage manager) when the lighting guy suddenly quits.
Naomi’s mom has been in bed for a week, depressed about her husband leaving her for Gail. Naomi is like, I’m calling dad. Maybe he needs to see you like this. But when dad arrives later, Naomi’s mom is all dressed up and ready to go out to dinner. She smacks Charles across the face and a minute later they’re kissing.
Harry, Kelly, and Ryan see Ty and Annie making out backstage. Harry is worried. Later, he tells his wife (Debbie) that boys here are different than in Kansas, but mom isn’t worried about Annie. She talks with Annie later and wants to make sure Annie understands the consequences of having sex, including the emotional consequences.
Annie finds out that Ty has been with lots of girls at school and that having sex with him is “only a matter of time” - Annie wonders if she’s ready, watches Ethan and Naomi (Naomi says they had sex almost right away) and they seem happy.
Brenda is worried about Adrianna, she talks with Ryan and Kelly. Ryan has noticed odd behavior, too, and Kelly wants to pull her out of the musical but Brenda says don’t do that, I’ll handle it.
Ty lets Annie know he has a room booked at the hotel where they’re having an after-party; now she really starts worring about sex.
Harry is concerned because Annie has been so worried (she says about the performance) but she never got that way about performances back in Kansas. He doesn’t want her to go to the after-party but mom says Annie makes good decisions.
He talks to Annie about going out with the family (she can bring Ty) instead of the hotel, because back in kansas they would all go out together after her shows. She’s mad because she realizes that he doesn’t trust her; he says he does, it seems like he doesn’t trust Ty.
Adrianna is wasted at performance time, and Annie is told to get ready for Adrianna’s role. Producers/agents are there to see Adrianna but she’s not going to perform. When the show starts, everyone is surprised to see Annie in the lead role.
Kelly confronts Adrianna & her mom about her suspicion that Adrianna is on drugs.
Ethan hangs around to see the show, texts Naomi that he’ll see her later. He wants to see Annie perform.
Naomi’s mom is getting rid of her husband’s things; she breaks the news to Naomi that (keep reading) they’re getting divorced. Dad said he couldn’t decide between her and Gail, so she made a decision because she has to respect herself. She wants naomi to respect her, too. She tells Naomi they’ll be ok.
The show is a hit. Annie sees Dixon afterward and she awkwardly asks him for the condom he’s been carrying in his wallet for 4 years. He’s like, you sure you want to have sex with Ty? She says she likes Ty a lot. Then she bumps into Ethan in the hallway, literally, and drops her flowers and the condom. Ethan says “You can not have sex with Ty Collins” and tells her Ty’s a player. Ethan says she should save herself for someone who cares about her and she’s like, I tried that and it didn’t work out.
At the hotel, Adrianna shows up at Ty’s room. She tells him that Annie and Ethan left the performance together and that they were making out. Later, Annie shows up to see Ty. Adrianna answers the door wearing only a towel. She implies that she and Ty had sex and says he’s in the shower “rinsing off” (gross!) and Annie is like, I’m out of here. She’s upset, thinking Ty was with Adrianna. Turns out Ty isn’t even there, it was just Adrianna tricking Annie because she was mad that Annie took over her role in the musical.
Silver and Dixon are making out at the party; Dixon starts talking about not having a condom because he gave it to Annie, Silver says they’re not having sex anyway, they’re going to take it slow.
Annie sees Ethan, she’s upset about something and Ethan is concerned. Naomi shows up. She tells them that she was about to have sex at some hotel in Hollywood with a guy she barely knows, and that this is some messed up world and that it’s fine for them, but not for her. She goes home and her parents are surprised (and relieved) to see her home early. She says she was just really tired from the show. She goes up to her room and cries.
