It's Ashley's birthday and she's having a party at her house. During the party Chloe meets Zack. She is a wealthy girl living in Malibu, while he is a lower class guy living in the valley. Chloe's brother gets into a fight with one of Zack's friends, Flipper. This leads to the arrest of both. Ashley and her upscale friends, Julie and Bree, dare Nina. They want her to try and sleep with her best friend, Chloe's, brother. She does the deed, breaking a previous promise that she made to Chloe. Due to the fight at the party, Zack's parents think that he should live with his sister in Malibu. Meanwhile, Josh gets pulled from the school's football team. Chloe's friend Teddy becomes an arsonist when he sets his own home on fire to try and blame it on Zack.

New Kids in Town

Everyone needs some time to adjust as the two high schools are mixed together. Teddy finds it hard to go back to school only to be known as the kid that torched his own house. Zack is asked to join a special advanced English class, which his friends can't understand.

And Flipper's brother Sandy pays him a visit after being released from jail. Zack opts to spend time with an upset Kacey instead of showing up to Chloe's for dinner (without even calling), which leaves Suki with a bad impression of him.
