Plot
Adam is now a senior at William Penn and is still dating Brea Bee, but their teenage relationship will have its ups and downs, and with the always-interfering Beverly wanting to spend even more time with him, she takes a job at the school as the semi-retired and outdated "Quaker Warden". Barry's time with Ren comes to an end but he finds new love unexpectedly with Geoff's sister Joanne after a relationship that started out as a joke becomes serious. After originally deciding to join Barry in becoming a doctor, Erica changes paths and pursues law instead, and she goes through some rough patches with Geoff, who is now a freshman at the school. The two break up for a while and Erica considers a move to Los Angeles to reunite with Lainey before ultimately deciding to get back together with Geoff instead, and the season ends with Geoff proposing to Erica at the Goldberg family's Jersey shore house.
