Soon, the trip becomes unpleasant when secrets from their pasts come into the light with Valerie admitting that she has feelings for David, and that she seduced Ray months earlier for no reason aside from the ultimate thrill of it. Donna becomes angry at Valerie, and then at Clare who admits she knew but did not say anything. In a turn of events, the four of them end up stranded for the night in convent after their car breaks down. Valerie also convinces Donna to break up with Ray knowing that he is physical abusive. Back in Beverly Hills, Steve rents out the Walsh house (Casa Walsh) to a movie crew to shoot a porn flick. Meawnwhile, Toni's father comes face-to-face with Dylan over him seeing her. Also, Brandon and Susan's relationship heats up even more.

Trivia

This show was scheduled to be aired on October 11, 1995 but FOX and the other networks panicked when they learned that NBC had scored a scoop to interview O.J. Simpson, who had just been acquitted of the murder of his ex-wife and her friend. Figuring the interview would gather virtually all the audience available in the time period, Fox substituted a rerun of the theatrical film Beethoven about a huge St. Bernard house dog. The Simpson interview was scrapped a day or two before it was supposed to air, but the substitute programming on the other networks ran anyway, just in case.
