Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Upset over the romance between Dwayne (Kadeem Hardison) and Kinu (Alisa Gyse-Dickens), Whitley (Jasmine Guy) tries to make Dwayne jealous by going out with his pal Ron (Darryl M. Bell)--with startling results. Meanwhile, Freddie (Cree Summer) is nervous about writing an essay explaining why she wants to take an African-American studies class taught by the distinguished Prof. Howard Randolph (Roger Gueneveur Smith). And there's an unpleasantly awkward moment when Freddie's caucasian cousin Matthew (Andrew Lowery) pays her a visit.
