- So for tomorrow, Ellie, I need you to hand out stickers.

Craig, I need you to pack the blood bags.

And Alex... Alex?

- This I will not be wearing. - It's for TV -

Caitlin Ryan's community show? When people see "Degrassi,"

I want them to think: cute and cuddly.

- I'm gonna clobber you. - That's not cuddly.

And as a president speaking to his vice--

- Alright, calm down.

Everything has to be perfect.

- She's right. What you've done for the school this year...

Ever consider running a second term?

- Four more years! Four more years!

- I can't.

I was thinking of picking up a few extra credits this summer.

This way, I can graduate after first semester's done.

Maybe even move in with Dylan before university.

My boyfriend?

Alright, you guys know I'm gay, right?

- Um... I'm stuck on "graduating early."

- I'm on "move in with Dylan."

- Guys, it's not that big a deal.

Okay, it's... it's huge.

� Whatever it takes �

� I know I can make it through �

� Uh huh alright �

� If I hold out � � If I do �

� I know I can make it through �

� Be the best �

� Be the best I can �

� And... and I say to you �

� Whatever it takes � � I know I can make it �

� I know I can make it �

� I know I can make it through ��

- So you'll call before you come over for the party?

Marco?

The day's gonna go fine.

- There's been a bee in this car for the entire ride.

Fear is my friend. - You know, a year ago,

you would've jumped out of a moving vehicle.

- Yeah, well, a year ago, I wasn't with you.

Go. Back to your dorm.

I'll see you tonight... at the party.

- It's like breast-feeding - only out of your arm.

- I think it's faster if you're quiet.

- So you inherited a school

where a student died and another paralyzed.

- Not the best situation to assume "Principal," I agree.

- And yet you've managed to turn it all around.

- Oh, no. Not me. Marco is the hero here.

Organizing the dances, the assemblies -

that's where the work has been. - You donated yet, Marco?

- Well, I'm planning-- Alex!

Will you stop tackling me?!

- Uh, cut. (laughing)

- So when is this going to air? - Eight o'clock, tonight.

And I want to add some shots of Marco donating.

When you're recovered.

- If I'm still serving you 10 years from now,

kill me, alright?

- Well, study hard and stay in school.

Oh, right. You got us expelled.

- Oh, here it is.

- Here you go, ladies.

Clare will be with you in a moment

to take your order-- - We asked for lemon

with our water. (yelping)

- You can't bring a dog in here.

- I didn't hear complaints.

Ladies?

We'll have the lunch menu instead.

- I'm going off shift, so Clare will--

- And lemon for the water

and a bowl for Baby Bear here, so she can have some, too.

Yes... you can. (barking)

Did that mean man step on you?

Poor little Baby Bear.

- So if I pass out and start drooling,

swear you'll stop filming. - Mr. Del Rossi?

Could you please ask them to stop filming

for just a minute?

- We're not shooting the whole "giving of blood."

We're just going to shoot a few frames of the president.

- I'm sorry, Ms. Ryan.

- Is there some kind of problem?

- There's a question here that you answered "yes" beside.

- It asks if I'm male and if I've...

... with another male.

- Yes, if you've had sex. - So?

- Well, it's policy. You have to understand,

but I can't let you be a donor.

- You shouldn't be here, Gavin.

- I didn't make an appointment.

I was afraid you wouldn't see me.

Uh... I just want you to know, this "being expelled,"

I'm not taking it like it's a vacation.

I've been keeping up in my textbooks.

- You were supposed to return those.

- But I need them to write exams.

- You don't get to do that.

- So that's it? I just lose my whole year?

- I'm willing to offer summer school.

- But that only gives me two credits -

that's not even enough to graduate.

That's a whole year I'll have to do over.

That's not fair.

- What's not fair is that Rick Murray is dead

as an indirect result of your bullying.

- I need to finish my year, Ms. H.

- No.

- Dylan.

Hey, it's me.

Look, just please call me - whenever, I'm here.

- Why's your blood any more risky than ours?

- Don't they test everything anyway?

- There's nothing wrong with me!

I've only been with Dylan, he's only been with me.

Even then, we were totally safe.

- So stop whining;

start complaining.

There's your soapbox. Use it.

- Caitlin, hey.

- Hey.

- How's this for a story?

Prejudice and homophobia at local high school.

- I'd say we're on you.

- Nurse Davis.

Hey. - Yeah?

- Hi. - Hi.

- I want...

Look, I want to ask why Blood Management

refuses gay people from giving blood.

- Ah...

um...

well, it's policy.

I'm not a spokesperson, so I can't really comment...

further. - Fine.

My name's Marco del Rossi, Student Council President.

Today, a student was denied as a blood donor

because of his sexuality.

- That's not the reason. - Then what is?

- Well...

there is, uh...

Within the gay community,

there is an increased risk of HIV infection.

- Saying that...

is lumping up all gay people as diseased.

I listened in health class and anybody with a pulse

can get HIV. - Yes, but--

- Marco...

Please.

Thank you.

Thank you. Look, this blood drive...

you should be so proud of yourself

for everything you've done. Look at all these people.

- My whole point

is that I'm supposed to be one of them.

- Hey!

- You want a kick, too?

- That's my bike, goof-bag.

- Yeah, it's your fault I'm SO BORED.

- So I'm stuck with you.

Haven't I been punished enough?

- Not yet.

- Know what? Bike stealing?

It's kid's stuff.

But real stealing, from Degrassi...

(music playing)

- Marco?

Marco, wait!

- No. - About Eric -

I meant to tell you. He's a friend

from Psych class. - There's other ways -

better ways - of breaking up, Dylan!

- Who's breaking up? Honey, I'm in university now.

There are people here - really interesting people -

that I really like.

- Oh, yeah, like Eric. - I love you.

And I don't want to stop seeing you.

But what I'd like to do is...

open things up a bit.

See other people.

- He wants to "open things up."

- He's a colossal jerk.

- It's so... humiliating. First I get rejected

as a blood donor, now by Dylan?

Maybe the blood people were right.

What is wrong with you?

- My "ex" - formerly known as Jay Hogart -

screwed around with every girl at this school.

It's not a "gay" thing. Promiscuity? It's a guy thing.

- Hey.

Didn't I hear you clocked Amy for being equally trampy?

- Oh, and how's Ash, Craig? Or are you back with Manny?

It's hard to tell, especially when you secretly dated them

at the same time.

- Let's call it a people thing.

- Let's call it a choice.

Monogamy, wow, what a difficult concept.

- I just want my boyfriend back.

- He's got a party tonight, right?

Well, then, "back" is what we'll get him.

(music playing)

Girls and boys?

I didn't think Dylan's dorm would be so co-ed.

- You see him yet?

- Who? - Dylan!

- Hey.

I'm really happy you came.

- Yeah?

That's good...

- Ahem. I'm gonna go see...

what they're stocking for pop.

Gentlemen...

- Come on.

- Craig, uh, look,

everything's unfolding pretty good,

so If you don't want to, you don't have to stay.

- You kidding? It's 8:00. - What's 8:00?

- Oh... Caitlin Ryan, Degrassi,

me at the blood drive.

Can I? Thanks.

- You inherited a school where a student died, another paralyzed.

- Not the best situation to assume "Principal," I agree.

- And yet you've managed to turn it around.

- Oh, no. Not me. Marco is the hero here.

Organizing the assemblies...

- Ah, tell me my head doesn't look that big!

- Your hair - that's what's big. -Have you donated yet, Marco?

- It looks great. You look great.

- And so Degrassi has risen from the ashes

of a tumultuous school year

thanks to this week's "Local Hero,"

- Wait... No, wait for it... - ... Marco Del Rossi.

I'm Caitlin Ryan.

- That's it?

No, there's more.

There's them not letting me give blood and then I...

- Dylan! We're toasting summer with kamikazes.

- Wait a second.

- I-it's nothing. Go. Kamikaze. Whatever.

- I'll be right back.

- Dylan gave me the kick out of the closet last year.

And here I was, my turn to make him proud?

When what I should be doing...

is making him jealous.

- Uh...

- Oh, what do we have here?

Huh. "Degrassi:

A year of memories."

- I said something worth something.

I always like counting

how many times I'm in this thing.

Way I see it, the less, the better.

- Ah, crap.

One.

Last thing I want to see

is me smiling, goofy and hanging off my bestest friends.

No. Two!

Argh, I'm a freak,

a failure.

Nothing compared to you, though.

You're all through this thing.

You alright there, Spinster?

- Follow me and grab some more.

- Hi. Hi, um, I'm Marco.

- Mike. - "Mike."

So, uh, Mike,

I was thinking of coming here next year.

I was actually thinking about residence,

but so far the only room I've seen is Dylan's.

- You want, like, a tour?

- Yeah, no, a tour would be great.

And maybe I can see your room.

You know, to compare.

- Okay.

Um...

it's two floors down, 403.

But, just gimme a sec to clean up, okay?

- Okay.

I'll see you in a bit... Mike.

- Marrrrco.

- Yo, where'd you disappear?

- Science lab.

I got fluid...

... of the "lighter" kind.

- Seriously, it's bonfire night?

Look, I know math wasn't your strongest subject,

but yearbooks plus fire equals the whole school up in flames.

Oh, yeah - and us in jail.

Put the toy away, flip-head.

- You're stopping me?

- Shocking,

but true.

- You're a freak...

in the same way that I am!

- Yeah, well, at least

I'm not torching the school!

D'you want your former friends to suffer, huh?!

Do you?! - I want 'em back!

- Listen,

as your friend substitute, I'm telling you...

... this isn't the way.

It's not.

- I just want them back.

- C'mon, man, we gotta clean this up.

- You know, you are a great guy.

The most honest, down-to-earth, nicest person that I know.

You're a little short,

but that just adds to the cuteness.

That I would find you to be, if...

you were a girl,

or I was not a guy.

Who is not gay.

Just tell me this is helping.

- You're telling me what I really want to hear.

I appreciate it. Thanks.

But if you want to help?

Tell me I'm an idiot.

- You're an idiot?

- I can't go downstairs.

I can't stay here! I can't talk to Dylan!

WHAT DO I DO? - Marco!

I, uh...

Wow.

- So when in doubt, you kiss Craig?!

- I... gotta settle this with Dylan.

- Yeah, you do! You really, really do!

- I love you.

- Likewise. But what was that?

- Dylan...

a lot of things aren't making sense right now.

- So what do you want me to say?

- That it made you jealous?

- It was Craig.

- I don't want you to see other people.

I don't like it. And I'm not gonna like it,

and I'm not gonna feel bad that it bugs me.

- It bugs you? - It bugs me.

It doesn't have to, okay? How I feel about you,

this changes none of that. - That's fine and okay!

But... you see, it changes how I feel about me.

- My freedom?

That's important to me right now.

I can't give that up.

- Then you and me? I can't.

And it's over.

� Goodbye... �

� Goodbye... �

� I made up my mind �

� Oh... �

� Oh goodbye ��

- Ms. H?

- Gavin, I don't have time to argue.

- You mentioned summer school.

- I offered. You declined.

- Uh... then what if I take it at another school,

or by correspondence,

and make the credits up that way?

Could I come back next fall?

There are two things that I want:

to finish school and to get my friends back.

But someone's... someone's got to give me a chance.

Please?

- Here are the forms and summer-school schedule -

a.k.a. your chance.

Gavin?

Don't screw it up.

- Um... okay.

Hey, Marco. - Hey.

So the blood drive, it was a huge success.

Thank you so much for covering it.

- Oh, my pleasure. - I just had a question.

About the scene I started in the gym?

Are you gonna air that at a different time, or...?

- Actually, some people here

would rather bury that part of it.

- Oh. Okay.

- No, it's not okay, actually.

I'm sick of seeing AIDS viewed solely as a homosexual disease.

I've tried to do something about it before.

Last year, I even went to Africa.

One word: educating.

You know, if you're interested in volunteering,

I've got some friends we could talk to.

- Yeah, sure, I'm interested!.

- Interested enough in spending some time in...

Africa or the Caribbean?

- Yeah! Yeah, of course.

- It would mean giving up your entire summer.

Any big plans?

- I did...

have some.

But you know how it is with plans.

They change.
