synopsis
Bailey (Scott Wolf) gets jealous when his pal Will (Scott Grimes, in his last regular series appearance) bends over backward to be nice to his geeky new college roommate (Peter Simmons). Kirsten (Paula Devicq) decides to pursue her academic and professional career far from home, causing a rift between herself and Charlie (Matthew Fox). Griffin (Jeremy London) once again demonstrates his utter lack of financial responsibility, prompting a stern lecture from Julia (Neve Campbell)...who, as it turns out, is in no position to preach. And the romance between Claudia (Lacey Chabert) and her "summer love" Byron (Rider Strong) hits a snag when he evinces more interest in Julia.
