The Way We Weren't

Episode 3 aired and was mainly focused on the Jenna and, her hookup/crush, Matty front. She thinks things are starting to look up when Matty invites her to a party at Lissa's (cheerleader and best friend to Sadie) house. Jenna thinks this is the first move for their ever so private relationship to go public and her best friend Tamara looks at it as a way into the popular crowd. Tamara brings a lot of quirky and common teenaged concepts to the show. For instance, she looks at the party as a "red cup photo" opportunity. The idea being that people are cool based on how many photos with red cups (used to drinking at parties so they hide the contents) they have on their internet profiles. So, upon arrival to the party they see it is actually more of a backyard get together than an actual party. Sadie greets, well is the first to say anything to Jenna and Tamara. She screams, "Who invited you?" and Matty comes up and says, "I did". Jenna sees this as Matty coming another step closer to taking them public, but then says pretty much grab some cups and have a good time. Jenna then sees Matty making out with a girl in the hot tub later on in the evening and runs off into the house. She finds Matty's best friend, Jake, sitting alone inside the house. He tells Jenna it is his 1st month anniversary with Lissa and that he knows he is expected to take things to the next level, but doesn't really want to. Lissa walks by and sees Jenna and Jake having a good time and feels threatened and throws herself at Jake. Jenna then walks away and tells Tamara she is leaving. At the same time, Lissa offers Jake not to go all the way, but to do some other things and he declines and runs out of the room. Jake leaves and runs into Jenna on the way out and they laugh about everything that happened at the party only Jake never knows her stories are about Matty. Jake ends up giving Jenna a ride home and they just enjoy each other's company.
