Brandon runs for vice president alongside Josh and does great when he steps in and gives a speech in Josh's place. Their campaign is threatened, however, when Alex Diaz - their opponent's campaign manager - uncovers the unpublished article that Josh wrote about Brandon the previous year, detailing Brandon's tutoring of D'Shawn and alleging that Brandon took tests for D'Shawn. Donna asks Clare (now attending C.U. as a sophomore) to move into the beach apartment in David's place, but Clare brings a bad snoring habit with her. Meanwhile, Valerie secretly decides to pursue Dylan after finding Brenda's mementos of him in the Walsh's garage, and hides her connection to the Walshes from him.
