April and her mom see the doctor who lets her know that she is still in remission. April asks her (after her mom steps out) if she is ok to have sex and the doctor gives her the green light. April tells Beth who hilariously dumps a huge box of condoms into April's purse. April arrives at work and notices that a few of the condoms are sticking out so she grips her bag tightly as Danny and Dominic step into the elevator with her. Her phone begins ringing and they tease her about why she won't answer it.
That night, Leo has dinner with the Carver ladies and April practically rushes them all out. Once they're alone, April and Leo sleep together.Which leads to an awkward morning when they are caught by Sarah sneaking out. Sarah is casual about it, but April is embarrassed and ducks out to go to work. Leo stays and has breakfast with Sarah, talking to her about his life and how unsure he is about his future now that he knows he has one. He's scared of what is to come because he has nothing to fall back on and he is tired of just being Bruce Hendrie's son.
At work, April makes a bet with the sports writer that she can get the inside scoop from baseball player Richie Miranda about his contract negotiations. They shake on it and the loser has to bring the winner tacos for a week. April finds out that a popular girl said yes to Julian and he asks her to come to his dance and interview him so he doesn't embarrass himself in front of her. April agrees and then finds out the dance is the same night as the event she is trying to meet Richie at. She thinks she can make both. Leo heads to one of his father's job sites and is embarrassed to have to ask about money. He finds out a guy he went to high school with is working for his dad.
Meanwhile, Greer is acting up at school and dyed the tips of her hair purple. At first Brenna and Ford think it's cool. Greer meets them at Alchemy where Brenna is working with Kieran and invites them to go on a trip to her vacation home. She insists that Kieran give her a tattoo and he refuses since she is underage which is illegal. Greer flips out and she over hears Kieran tell Brenna she's acting like a psycho. Greer locks herself in the bathroom and Ford leaves. Brenna talks Greer down and they have a sleepover with Kieran at the shop. She shares that she has depression and she is on medication for that and anxiety. She also says she doesn't like taking the medication so she took herself off of it. Greer opens up about feeling like she has this dark side that she has to hide and be ashamed of that no one knows about. Brenna then shares that after her dad died, she slept with a senior from their school and got pregnant and the guy gave her a check to have it taken care of. She also says that she told 1 person, Ford, who drove with her to Connecticut where it can be done without a parent's permission. Brenna shares that she and Ford have been close ever since. Kieran shares that he got a tramp stamp.
April and Leo go to the club first and he goes to have a drink. He gets upset when someone refers to him as Bruce Hendrie's son and asks about his cancer. Leo drinks and April sees the sports reporter get turned down for the VIP room. April tries to get back there but ultimately lies (makes them think she's pregnant) and as soon as Richie sees her, he recognizes her. They sit and she shares about what happened and basically thanks him for saving her life. He gets pulled away before she can ask him about his contract negotiations. April gets a text from Julian asking where she is and she decides to give the Richie story one more shot before leaving. She walks back into the VIP lounge and sees Richie and Leo snorting cocaine.
April and Leo have it out, coming to the conclusion that cancer was the only thing they had in common. April wrestles with whether or not to tell the story. She runs into Dominic and mentions what happened, leaving out Leo's part in it, and says she doesn't know what to do. He gives her credit, saying that her job is tough and she has a hard choice to make and her respects her for doing it. Ultimately April shares the story in the paper (excluding Leo's role) and it makes the television news. Everyone in her office is celebrating her accomplishment and her boss is very pleased.
