It’s raining in The O.C – something that rarely happens.

Since neither want to go out in the rain, Seth and Ryan discuss their problems with Summer and Lindsay on the phone. Seth is afraid that if Summer goes to Italy with Zach, then he’ll lose her forever; and Ryan is worried about how distant Lindsay has been since Caleb asked for a DNA test.

Kirsten is depressed about Sandy’s involvement with Rebecca to the point of not even getting out of bed. Sandy apologises to her, but then receives a phone call from Rebecca in which he tries to convince her to stay so that they can work on her case.

At the Nichol house, Marissa introduces Alex to Julie and then tells her that Alex is her girlfriend.

Ryan goes to see Lindsay and she admits that she’s afraid to find out whether Caleb is her father or not and she tells him that if she’s not Caleb’s daughter she will move to Chicago with her mother.

While Summer is trying on her bridesmaid dress for Zach’s sister’s wedding, Seth calls to see her wearing a Spiderman mask (It’s waterproof and hats don’t suit him). Seth talks about how it must be serious between her and Zach if she’s going to be part of his sister’s wedding and leaves feeling disappointed.

Sandy meets up with Rebecca to convince her not to run and later the two of them get stuck in a road block because of the rain.

Marissa goes to Alex’s and tells her that she has told her mother about their relationship. She also tells Alex that she can’t go home, so Alex says that she should stay with her. Marissa then goes home to pack and tells Julie that she’s moving out.

Sandy and Rebecca end up staying at a motel together because of the road block. Rebecca makes a move on Sandy, but he stops her and goes outside to phone Kirsten to say goodnight.

Seth is depressed about Summer going to Italy with Zach, but then has an idea. He decides to buy back the Summer Breeze and take her out on it. First, he needs money, so he goes to see Alex to ask for his job back and for an advance payment (which he gets) and he discovers that Alex and Marissa are now in a relationship.

Seth buys back his boat, which has been modified and is now called ‘Gimmie Sex’.

While Seth tells Ryan what he discovered about Marissa and Alex, Kirsten informs them that Lindsay has phoned to say that the DNA test results are back.

As Summer and Zach are leaving for the airport, Seth phones and asks Summer to come over so that they can talk, but she refuses.

Sandy and Rebecca, having left the motel, get into a car accident. Someone who saw the accident calls 911, so Rebecca runs for fear of being arrested when the police arrive.

Lindsay’s test results show that Caleb is her father. However, she still decides to move to Chicago with her mother. She tells Ryan that leaving him is very difficult, but she could never leave her mother.

At the airport, Seth phones Summer and she doesn’t answer. However, as soon as she’s alone, she listens to the message he left. Summer then sees a little boy playing with a toy horse, which reminds her of Seth. She realises that she should be with Seth and says sorry to Zach before leaving the airport.

Sandy, having been delayed by a road block and a car accident finally gets home to Kirsten on a bus.

Seth, still depressed about Summer leaving, sits down for an evening of TV, but the TV’s not working. Seth climbs up on the roof (in his waterproof Spiderman mask) to try and fix the satellite, but falls and is left hanging upside down from the roof. Summer then arrives and kisses Seth.

Episode Allusions

Abigail: Are you a fan of Botticelli?
Summer: Yes, yes, I am. Although, I prefer his earlier work. You know, the comedies.

Botticelli is a famous painter of the Italian renaissance. Summer seems to be referring to William Shakespeare.

Seth: "The Hand Smearing the Window"
As In the beginning when Seth puts his hand on the window and pulls it down (On this rainy day), it seems as a reference from the movie "The Titanic". As Jack and Rose are making love in the car aboard the ship, she puts her hand on the foggy window (as In the beginning of this episode) and pulls it down, smearing the window.

Seth: Eureka, Ryan!
While the Eureka Stockade (the revolt of miners against colonial authority in Ballarat) was a relatively significant event in Australian history, the term 'eureka' was originally attributed to Archimedes, who is said to have run through the streets of Syracuse naked after finally understanding the concept of bouyancy.

Seth: "'The Valley' has got its own reality show knock-off."
Seth is planning to watch the marathon of "Sherman Oaks: The Real Valley" a reality spin-off of the fictional TV show "The Valley." This could be a possible reference to MTV's "Laguna Beach," an OC spin-off.

Seth: "yesssssss"
When seth puts up his right arm and says "yessssssssss" it sounded like it was a reference to the movie Napoleon Dynamite.
