On top of all that, Carter comes home to find a Fairfax county truancy officer in her home.
Apparently, these are a thing and ditching school can actually get you sent to juvi?!
Isnt 17 a beautiful age?
(take a stab at look happier, Taylor.)
It takes about four hours for Carter to find a way out of being grounded.
She has to wake up and call Crash to come get her.
Lori knows that Carter was never a traditional learner.
She remembers teaching her math at a bakery using measuring cups and sugar.
As she tells her: 99.9 percent of parents wouldnt sign the form.
Luckily, Im the one percent.
Suddenly Carters lack of math skills makes so much sense.
But Carter ends up tearing up the form.
She does want to drop out, but she wants to do it with her parents blessing.
He then informs Taylor that Gabe has a thing for her, which she later lies to Max about.
Denial doesnt do anyone any good, Tay.
After Carters fired, Crash asks her to come to California with him.
Sadly for Crash, that means hes going to California alone.
But right now, justice isnt on Carters side considering that Lori just found her working at the bar.
The Adult World
The adult world is much less eventful this week.
(You know, the one hes been writing anyway.)
Naturally, Elizabeth hates it.
And thats about it.
But thanks to Lori discovering Carters secret, Im betting well get more adult drama moving forward.
