This is one of the few scripts written by Robert Walden (of Lou Grant) and it introduces the character of Mason Peters (Adam Carl in his first of three appearances).  He's 15 and Sam is 14 going on 15, but while she just started high school, he's in college.  She goes out with him to find out more about the campus life and to impress her friends.  Again, I'm not crazy with the direction they're taking teenage Sam, although she does realize it's wrong to use people, especially a nice guy like Mason who likes her.

Oddly enough, Todd Jeffries, who's Skeeter Barnes the jock here, had been the young Minister at Michael and Heather's wedding.
