In San Diego, Steve starts getting accepted to all his colleges he applied to including Harvard. When he finds out Allison didn't get accepted he realized the only reason he was was because of his father's fame. In Houston Steve goes to San Diego for a while to see his mom but comes back to Houston to visit Dub. During this trip back they have sexual intercourse and both of them feel like they are now more matured and their relationship is at another level. Dub does though feel a little sad she says like she is growing up to fast. Steve then starts his job again at the movie theatre and gets a promotion. He also decided to call Doug one night but Doug makes it known that he is mad at Steve for spending all of his time with Dub and the call ends. I believe Steve needed to put his friends first becuase now he is starting to lose all of them.
