90210Last night's episode of 90210 had one of the best openings I've seen on this show. After finally losing his virginity to his girlfriend Adrianna, Navid could barely contain his enthusiasm as he strolled through the halls. Silver went to Adrianna's six months of sobriety AA meeting and her mother was there. Later, Adrianna tried to convince Silver that if Adrianna could change Jackie could. Silver then called Adrianna out for kissing Teddy, but Adrianna wanted to pretend it never happened. Silver went to her mom's meeting with the sole purpose of embarrassing her. Later, she found out from Adrianna her mom had cancer.

As for Teddy, he continued hanging out with Navid, Liam and Dixon. The guys' bromance is definitely going to take a hit when Navid finds out about Teddy and Adrianna. After Navid told his friends he lost his virginity, a scheming Teddy suggested they go on a double date. Adrianna tried to get Navid to cancel when she found out. On the date, a jealous Adrianna ended up kissing Teddy and lying about it again to Navid.

With the copy of Jen saying they slept together on this phone, Liam went to Teacher Ryan's class and managed to get his phone confiscated. Liam tried to steal the phone back only to get caught. Ryan called Liam's parents in for a conference but ended up saying good things about Liam after he realized his step-dad was a jerk. Ryan gave Liam his cell phone back, but Liam deleted the recording after he saw Naomi kissing another guy.

The episode wasn't all kissing new guys for Naomi. She found out that she didn't have the grades to go to California University, the show that the original cast of Beverly Hills, 90210 attended. Naomi was depressed enough to go to school wearing sweatpants. However, Naomi quickly recovered and came up with a plan to date the dean's son while pretending to be an environmentalist. Silver suggested that she just study and Naomi pointed out that scheming was her strength, not studying. Before going on a date with the dean's son, Naomi met his roommate, a guy that was much more her type. Naomi's plan to date her way into CU might not happen, if the awkward kiss between her and the dean's son was any indication.

Annie spent more time with the nephew of the guy she ran over. Jasper even asked Annie to be a film he was trying to make, which could be a setup or his way of hitting on her. Sasha met Dixon's mom Annie and found out that Dixon was seventeen. For some reason, she decided to keep dating him, even after finding out he was a liar.

The episode still didn't close up the Naomi-Jen-Liam storyline after he stupidly deleted the recording. Just because she wasn't going to date him didn't mean Naomi didn't deserve to know. Liam's always been naïve to think that Naomi finding out about Jen would lead her to run back into his arms. Maybe if this triangle's finished, we can focus on the Navid-Adrianna-Teddy one that's been growing.
