Casey Plants Drugs on Elwood

Margo and Tom are at the police station, and Margo is feeling guilty for going out of town for the night. She learns that Reg died of a drug overdose last night. She is grateful that Casey wasn't involved, but then she learns Reg collapsed at Casey's 21st birthday party. Tom leaves to check on Casey.

Casey and Jade wake up, hung over. They can't believe they slept together. They hear a knock on the door and rush to get dressed. However, Noah and Luke walk in; everyone feels uncomfortable. Noah and Luke tell Casey and Jade about Reg's death and their theory that Elwood sold him the drugs they found in his jacket pocket. Casey tells them they don't have enough evidence to go to the police, so he takes matters into his own hands. He calls Elwood and leaves him a message, asking him to meet Casey in the park. Jade doesn't think this is such a good idea, but Casey doesn't care.

Craig arrives at Carly's to give her bad news. The deal they had with the distributor fell through. Carly is disappointed. Craig says he has set up another meeting with a different distributor, but they have to leave now to make it to New York in time. Carly is angry with Craig and reminds him she can't just take off any time she wants to - she has kids to take care of. Craig reminds her of the money involved and how much success they will have, and Carly is sold. She goes to get ready to leave for New York.

At the hospital, Margo finds Alison and asks her some questions about Casey's birthday party. Alison is offended Margo would think she would know who might have had drugs at the party, and she reminds Margo she no longer uses drugs. Alison also informs Margo she and Casey are no longer involved. Matt arrives and tells Margo about the party and his new job at Yo's. Margo is surprised to see Matt as she didn't know he had been released from jail yet. After Margo leaves, Matt asks Alison if she wants to take a walk in the park on her break, and she agrees.

Tom comes home to find his house a wreck. He also discovers Jade's bra and thinks it's Alison's. He calls Margo to tell her there's trouble at the house. When she arrives, Tom shows her the bra and tells her he thinks it's Alison's, but Margo tells him Alison says she's no longer involved with Casey. They both wonder who the bra belongs to, and Tom leaves to find Casey.

Craig and Carly have their meeting in New York. Craig thinks it went really well, but Carly isn't so sure, until he reminds her how great she was in the meeting. She finally agrees she did well. Craig invites Carly to celebrate over lunch. They arrive at a private club in Brooklyn. Craig informs her this is more research. He has set up several bottles of vodka and tells her they need to sample more varieties from different countries. Carly seems to be enjoying herself and tells Craig this is the most fun she's had in a long time. He asks her which vodka is her favorite, and she tells him she can't decide. He blindfolds her and asks her to taste a vodka and to tell him where it came from. She is able to do so, and Craig is impressed with how much knowledge she can retain. They nearly kiss, but Craig backs off and leads a tipsy Carly out of the bar.

Casey is waiting for Elwood in the park. Matt spots him and comes to talk with Casey. Casey tells Matt about their suspicions that Elwood sold Reg the drugs and his plan to set up Elwood. Matt asks if he needs back-up, but Casey says he's fine. Matt walks away.

Luke and Jade go to Java for coffee. Noah is working. Luke asks Jade what she was thinking sleeping with Casey. He reminds her the whole point of last night was to get Casey and Alison together, but Jade insists Alison is over Casey.

Elwood arrives at the park and he and Casey rehash the past. Casey complains about being kicked out of school and his job as a janitor. Casey asks Elwood for drugs, but Elwood insists he doesn't know what Casey is talking about and turns to walk away. Casey grabs him and slips the drugs found in Reg's pocket into Elwood's book bag. Matt comes back after Elwood leaves and Casey tells him what happened. Allie arrives at the park to meet Matt and finds Casey there as well. Casey starts walking off, but then turns and apologizes to Alison for being mean to her last night. Allie tells him it is fine, that Matt took good care of her. She tells him she knows he took Jade back home and slept with her. Casey storms off. Alison tells Matt how she saw Jade and Casey last night and says it's all her fault.

Casey arrives at Java and tells Luke, Noah, and Jade what happened at the park. He tells them that he slipped the drugs into Elwood's bag and begs Luke and Noah to go to the police to have them pick him up. They are hesitant, but Casey tells them if they don't go to the police, he will. They agree to go, and walk out.

Jade tells Casey he did the right thing, when Tom walks into Java and tells Casey they need to talk. Tom demands to know what on earth Casey is doing with Jade. Casey tells his father his love life is not his business. Tom tells Casey about Reg's death, and Casey says he'll do anything to avenge him. Tom wants to know what that means when Jade interrupts. He hands Jade back her bra and tells Casey and Jade to be more discrete next time. Tome leaves.

Luke and Noah arrive at the police station and talk with Margo. They tell her they believe Elwood sold Reg the drugs and Margo orders that Elwood be brought in for questioning. Shortly thereafter, Elwood arrives and Margo wants to know if he knew Reg. She tells him that Reg died of an overdose of hydrocodone and alcohol. Elwood is nervous, but tells her he had nothing to do with it. She asks to search his book bag and he agrees while another officer pats him down. Margo doesn't find any drugs in the bag, so she releases him.

At the hospital, Matt tells Alison she deserves better. She tells him how she wishes it were spring because it makes her feel good. She says she wants to have a picnic in the woods, away from everyone, except Matt. On her break, Allie discovers Matt has thrown her a picnic in the hospital. Allie is really touched Matt remembered all of her favorite things to eat and tells him he is a great friend.

Noah and Luke return to Java and tell Casey the police didn't find anything in the bag. Casey is shocked. He vents to Jade and says he needs to come up with another plan to get Elwood locked up. Jade wants to talk about their relationship.

Carly and Craig arrive at her house, but Carly is still feeling horrible from all the vodka. Craig goes to make hot chocolate and Carly teases him about doing housework. The distributor calls Craig and tells him he loves their idea and wants to sign with them. Craig tells Carly and they are thrilled. Craig kisses her, but she pulls away quickly. Craig tells Carly it was just a business kiss, but swears it will never happen again because it upset Carly so much. Craig returns to making hot chocolate in the kitchen.
