Firestarter Pt. 2 is the final episode before Degrassi goes on hiatus until April, 2015.  It airs on Tuesday, January 13th at 9pm EST on TeenNick and MTV Canada.

***********
Mr. Hollingsworth’s campaign is in its final stretch, and the stress has him even more tense than usual. Miles appeals to his family about his father’s behavior, but it seems like he’s the only one who realizes there needs to be a change. In the meantime, Zoë has used Frankie as a scapegoat for the Power Cheer debacle, but Frankie isn’t giving up. Along with Winston, she creates an elaborate plan to prove that Zoë is the one behind the scheme. Imogen reveals to Eli the truth about Clare’s situation.

  1. I can’t wait for Frankie to take Zoey down. I was just beginning to like her after her rape storyline… and would’ve enjoyed seeing her get together with Zig. It’s good to see that the other Hollingsworth kids may see that their dad isn’t as great as he appears (and that Miles isn’t just a trouble child that “deserves” the wrath of his father).

    (May not be a popular opinion, and not on point with the plotlines going down in the finale, but not so patiently waiting for Miles and Maya to get back together. Their chemistry is insane. And I want to see when Maya tells Miles about Cam).

    I can’t wait for next week’s episode but I also don’t want to wait months for Degrassi to return! :'(

    1. I wasn’t originally the biggest fan, but Miles and Maya have had some major chemistry this season. Stefan Brogren hinted in Principal’s office a while back that Miles and Maya weren’t over. I’m also sad that Zoe and Zig never got a real chance. Zoe deserves some punishment but hopefully no bodily injury… Can’t wait till next week too!

      1. I like this episode but Chewie lookin like he hopped out a horror film. I hope her punishment is good! the principle or the police are the only option & the way Frankie was crying its gone be good. we don’t need much time but I hope the fire goes out before 9:18 so we can see this punishment. I hope he records what Zoe says. although he should of went with the hostage

        approach. he could of threatened to not let her go unless she confessed or used Frankie as the fake hostage. bet she regrets blaming her now. & props to seeing Becky back:) that means she’s captain again. if Zoe meets him before that scene then technically she’s already been replaced. cant wait to see the chat. he’s smarter than Grace. I will use my

        iPod to tape those scenes. but I have been waiting for her punishment! since I will see the episode again at 11PM that day If we get to see her punishment ( & we BETTER) I will tape it. its just the matter of how this can happen. it would have to be after the fire is out so either sometime during the scenes before the last commercial or the last scenes before & during the credits.

        but we all know the punishment is expelled & arrested. she didn’t even finish her whole school year. if she gets punished this means she finished 3/4ths of her year. we should hear the I gotta protect Frankie” stuff too. also there should be a scene where she walks in a room & looks surprised as well. but even though the fire takes up more time we BEST

        see this with the 2nd plot. I just love saying it over & over again. idk how they will prove she’s the one unless they get a recording. so maybe it gets to the principle & the press. but if something like this happens its safe to say she’s expelled when 14B comes around in mid April. I guess she never gets the chance to compete. maybe she will find out that Becky

        replaced her ass. something must happen. surprised they cram this into 30 minutes. but this is the best 2nd plot ever. & the dad needs therapy. he’s so mad about the Frankie shit. but this Zoe punishment will save his election.

  2. Even though he is a jerk, I do still want Clare and Eli to be together at the end of this.
    OMG, are they gonna kill Zoe? I can only hope… :D

    1. Eli’s reaction shot was so perfect, though you’d think Imogen could do a better job of cushioning the blow of announcing you’re going to be a dad? At least tell Eli to sit down first!

  7. Finally I’ve been waiting for this! with all this fire crap going on I guess whatever Frankie & Winston do to Zoe will happen either before the last commercial ends or during the last scenes & possibly 1 of the credit scenes. they jammed all that stuff into a 2nd plot.. wow! looks as crammed as my luggage before I went out of town. I did not expect Becky to be back but glad to see it.

    this means if she’s in there then Zoe is out:) she would never let Zoe do anything. an Winston went with the horror movie approach? is that really the best he can do? I hope he (or Frankie) can ask her some certain things so he can record them. that needs to be part of this plan. looks like he went to the costume department. but for the love of god PLEASE! I want to see her get a

    punishment, all this stuff is funny and all but I want a punishment! she shouldn’t have to go through this whole block like the invisible felon. it looks like when Shay told her what can happen to Frankie she felt bad for the 2nd time. but whatever happens she needs it. & if we’re lucky it can happen. my guess is either the principle or the 5-o will get something. cant wait to see how

    Becky gets in. I hope that fire gets put out before 9:18. also cant wait to see who helps Zoe, if its Frankie maybe she can reason with her. all I want to see in this is the Zoe plan & the fire being put out. who cares about Clare. she’s like the thing that wont go away! she gets another finale spot? I hope we can at least see Zoe’s punishments during the credits even though she knows

    what will happen to her… getting expelled & charged. I don’t want to see any DN shit in 14B. cus when Zoe gets her punishment the stuff dies.

      LOL! The finale is called “Finally.” For some of us, that’s short for “Finally! No More Clare!”

  8. If Zoe and Frankie make up and go back to being best friends I will be sooooo soooo mad and dissapointed on the writters, they need to keep them as enemies, what Zoe did to her is unforgivable!

    Another thing, in my opinion they should’ve focused this last episode only on the scandal about Degrassi Nudes, the whole Clare plot is just a waste of time! I hate how she always has to be featured on every single finale episode, so sick of Eclare and this stupid baby drama, just get Eclare back together so we can focus on more important things for God’s sake

    1. Trust me they won’t make up. The day they make up is the day Ralph Nater is president. Good thing is Becky is in the squad again. So Zoe is out. I want to see punishment! I’ve been waiting for this . I guess we can see what their plan is after the opener. As much as I like him wearing his Halloween costume

      I want to see her pay! NOW! As sad as Frankie was means Something awesome will happen. Getting hurt by the press is bad. That spreads like Ebola. Winston needs to tape something. But now that she knows Frankie

      Ain’t it I’d love to see what happens. There’s no way she’s going through this episode free. This ain’t Disney. There’s no laughter at the end. I will tape her demise too. She knows what will happen. I hope we get the fire out before 9:18. Then we can see a little. An I hope the end of the plan happens before the credits. But whatever happens she won’t make it till the senior graduation.

      Good thing she felt bad for the 2nd time. She is just like Grant Ward of Hydra. An fuck Clare. I stopped caring about her long time ago. I’m in this season for the Zoe stuff. An we still get to hear “I gotta protect Frankie” soon. Not to mention a scene where Zoe walks in a classroom & looks

      Surprised. Anyways… I want her to pay too. She only thinks of herself. Even with the fire crap in the way I hope we see a ending where she gets it. An whose gunna save her? But even though she has that outfit on she is trash now. Becky will never let her back. She deserves to get hit. If I were Frankie

      I’d say “kiss my ass!” Or “go fuck yaself”. And after this her role is small. Good thing is if I’m right then the city & dad will owe Frankie a apology. Idk how all this is in 30 minutes but all I want is for her to pay. Wait till Zig sees what she really did. Once her punishments happen then DN dies. I heard

      Boobs & nude so many times….

  9. I didn’t see this mentioned at all above, but as excited as I am for the Frankie and Winston v Zoe portion, the thing that really stood out in the promo was Miles and Hunter with Mr. Hollingsworth. FINALLY someone will see his abuse, and it looks like Miles is gonna go off the deep end protecting Hunter. That “This can never happen again” line was chilling to me, and I would love to see the family finally expose him for what a sick individual he is. While he always had Maya on his side, she couldn’t do anything. Now that Hunter almost became the victim, he will know Miles is being truthful, and Frankie will believe him. Not only will the school burn, but I hope he burns too.

    1. I made mention of this earlier in my comment – albeit briefly. I definitely agree!!! I am so excited for this to play out… Mr. Hollingsworth definitely has a problem and while Miles is self-destructive, he is clearly misbehaves because of his father. Also, the other Hollingsworth siblings don’t know about their father cheating on their mother!

  10. Just came to say that this “Pierre” person’s comments are misogynistic and gross. His obsession with girl’s bodies and bad comments of the female characters sicken me and I hope you can moderate him, Kary.
    I’m a long time lurker and occasional poster and not one episode goes by without it saying something offensive.

    2. I agree, he needs to go. In a post a few episodes back,(i think the one where Clare tells Eli about the baby) Fierre said Eli should wait until after she delivers the baby and then beat the crap out of her citing that he did this himself once so it is a good idea. I don’t think free speech she be an outlet of advocating violence against women (or anyone for that matter).

      1. Exactly. I’m not sure how old he is and whatnot, or if he’s trolling but the slut shaming and constant ogling of the girls is sick. I’m a guy but that doesn’t give you permission to be a pig. And I had completely forgotten about the beating Clare up comments… sick.

    3. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I’m absurdly busy nowadays and usually just end up skimming through the comments. I want people to be able to post here without feeling like I’m going to be a tyrant who deletes any comments I don’t agree with, but if someone’s posting stuff that’s super offensive to others that’s an entirely different ballgame.

  11. I’m pretty excited for the finale, and I’m hoping they have a promo prepared for the next block of Season 14 episodes. Expecting the next block to be very Zig/Tiny-heavy since it’s the one thing from the “Tonight, Tonight’ video that we haven’t seen yet.

    1. That’s a great point — I had figured the Tonight, Tonight promo would really only focus on plots for the first half of the season so as not to spoil the second half, but the Zig and Tiny gang plot never materialized. Originally this was the plot I was least interested in, but after Firestarter Part 1, I’d like to see more Zig and Tiny next block. It would be amazing if they had another promo prepared — trying to figure out the clues is one of the best parts imho!

    1. It’s the winter finale, otherwise known as the finale for the first block (14a), so no, not the season finale. Most shows go on hiatus before the holidays, so it was really nice for Degrassi to keep going through the new year. 11 week break for Open Heart, then the next block of season 14 resumes in April. I wonder what the major story lines will be for the next block?
