It's the start of the school year. For their upcoming anniversary, penniless Spinner wants to get the perfect present for Paige. His idea: get her the perfect locker, since the one she has been assigned she considers in purgatory. In Spinner's mind, Hazel has the perfect locker, but it will take some swift maneuvering to get Hazel to give it up. Emma has thoughts other than school on her mind. With Spike almost ready to give birth and with Spike and Snake's recent marriage, Emma has been thinking about her biological father, Shane McKay. Spike has told Emma nothing about Shane, except that she wants Emma to have nothing to do with him as he deserted them. All Emma vaguely remembers is meeting Shane once in a hospital when she was three years old, Emma remembering that Shane was wearing a doctor's uniform. Emma does whatever she needs to to locate Shane and know her biological dad.
