Last night's episode 90210 was a disappointment. The only interesting situation to come out of the Halloween party was Liam moving on from his plan to get Naomi back. Navid skipped the party and most of the episode to avoid running into Adrianna, who pouted about Navid's absence.

Whining should have been in the episode title. Liam ran over his new love interest Ivy's surfboard, and made enough sexist comments towards her to make it unclear what she saw in him at the end of the episode. Dixon finally broke up with Sasha after she kept pulling him away from the surf club and nearly got him kicked off the team. But the Sasha storyline couldn't just end there. Sasha apologized for being so needy and told Dixon she was pregnant. After last season's baby storyline, hopefully this is just her twisted way of trying to keep Dixon around.

The Halloween party did bring an end to Naomi's pointless environment kick. At the start of the episode, she was still dating the dean's son while bonding over her love of CU with his roommate Jamie. To his credit, Jamie didn't kiss her because she was still dating his roommate. All it took was for Naomi to see Liam talking to Ivy before she realized that she needed to move on too. She broke things off with Richard and asked Jamie to meet her at the Halloween party.

Annie and Jasper continued spending time together, even after Dixon tried to warn her that Jasper was sketchy. In true sister fashion, Annie called Dixon out for sneaking out of the house every night. Annie volunteered to be in Jasper's film and even helped him borrow a car from the beach club for his movie.

While Dixon was getting older women pregnant and Annie was stealing cars, their parents were fighting about Harry's relationship with Kelly. Debbie was still mad about Harry calling her Kelly, and only got more upset when she found out he canceled lunch with her to have lunch with Kelly. Harry tried to talk to Kelly about her having a crush on him and he realized there might be some fact to his wife's suspicions.

Kelly had time to have lunch with Harry, but she continued to allow Silver to take care of their mom Jackie by herself. Silver forgot about a history assignment and her class partner Teddy ended up getting in trouble about it for her. Once Teddy found out about her mom, he told Silver about taking care of his mom before she died. If these two start dating, that might be enough to make Adrianna start using drugs again. After this episode, even an intervention would have been watch-able. The Halloween party was basically a bust, and not even Sasha's pregnancy scare could make this episode seem any more exciting.
