The Vindicated…

On the way to sixth period, Desmond Blackshear is spotted by Ethan and Russell entering Nurse Stringer's office. He's in the process of receiving medication for his "taste" issue and discusses how he attempted and failed to blackmail Rayne into kissing him. Desmond feels it will eventually get out that he sexually harassed Rayne, and is prepared to face the consequences. Ethan and Russell suggest he help them clear Rayne’s name to offset any anticipated disciplinary action. Desmond has reservations because he feels his antics have put him in bad graces with Teddy. The boys assure Desmond they can convince Teddy to allow Desmond to join in the effort - Desmond agrees and they head to class.

Later, Rayne Atwater enters her sixth period class with Seth Rosenhaus, and promises not to make a scene when she enters the room (Desmond, Chelsea, Mia, and Elizabeth are also in her sixth period class). Ms. Raver, the classroom teacher, wants to discuss the election, which at this point is just 24 hours away. Rayne decides this would be a good time to make peace with Chelsea and wish her well - Rayne acknowledges coming off as harsh against Chelsea at the beginning of the school year and approached her saying she, "owed her a handshake". Chelsea shakes Rayne's hand and it seems, they have finally made peace with one another.
