 SEASON 1, EPISODE 9 REBEL WITHOUT A CAR All roads lead to nowhere for Alex (Craig Hurley), a rebellious Springwood hot rodder from the wrong side of the tracks. Downtrodden by a dead-end job, boring life, and low grades, he attempts to flee the doldrums of small-town life with the two loves of his life-- his girlfriend Connie (Katie Barberi) and his re-built muscle car. However, Connie has dreams of her own, but she is initiated into her own living hell when she pledges a haughty and exclusive sorority. However, despite their efforts, both youths learn in a nightmarish way that you can never leave home-- especially if home is Springwood.
