S03E09 James and the Giant Piece
Episode Overview
Ben pushes Molly to end things with James, but she chooses to invite him to stay at the girls' apartment instead. She claims that James has agreed to seek help alongside her. However, James convinces her to skip her treatment meeting to get high, and even cuts her hair. Ben discovers a gun among James' things and shares his concerns with Felicity about Molly's situation. They confront Molly, insisting that James cannot stay, and Ben, without consulting Felicity, demands that Molly either quit drugs or leave. Upset, she decides to move out. Meanwhile, a student accuses Dr. McGrath of harassment and wants Elena to testify. Elena uncovers that McGrath fabricated a tale about a sick ex-wife to seduce students. Realizing that the unwarranted grade he gave her helped her advance academically, she feels like a fraud. Tracy, encouraged by Felicity, gives Elena a much-needed pep talk, reminding her of her intelligence.
