Savannah is nervous about her first date with Dan, so Marti, Lewis and the rest of the Hellcats team accompany her on the date ... which ends in disaster. Meanwhile, Marti tries to impress her law professor, Julian (recurring guest star Gale Harold), in the hopes of joining his legal team, but he doubts she can balance both her studies and cheerleading. Desperate to get her spot back, Alice turns to pills to kill the pain so she can get medically approved to re-join the team. Vanessa decides to come clean with Derrick (recurring guest star D.B. Woodside - 24, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) about her affair with Red (recurring guest star Jeff Hephner - The O.C., The 19th Wife).

The girls' volleyball team challenges the Hellcats to a flag football game. Lewis coaches the Hellcats and Red (recurring guest star Jeff Hephner) is impressed by his plays. Marti pretends to be sick so she can skip the game and attend a conference with Julian (recurring guest star Gale Harold). Alice wants to cheat to win but Savannah refuses, once again putting the two girls at odds.

Desperate to raise funds to get them to Nationals, the Hellcats plan a date auction. However, things take a unexpected turn after Savannah's old boyfriend shows up and outbids Dan; Morgan (recurring guest star Craig Anderson - Love Happens, Fringe) wins a date with a horrified Marti; and Vanessa is bid on by a mystery man whom she suspects is Red (recurring guest star Jeff Hephner) trying to win her back. Vanessa frets over whether to tell Derrick (recurring guest star D.B. Woodside) about the date as the money will cover the trip to Nationals for the Hellcats. Meanwhile, Lewis continues to keep a secret from the team.

For their anniversary party, the Hellcats plan an '80s party to celebrate, complete with costumes and a musical number by Vanessa. Savannah decides she's ready to spend the night with Dan and plans a romantic evening for the two of them, but things don't exactly work out as she envisioned. Meanwhile, Alice usurps a PR story that was supposed to focus on the Lancer football team and makes it about the Hellcats, much to Jake's (recurring guest star Ryan Kennedy - The Invisible, Caprica, Smallville) dismay. Marti has conflicted feelings about Savannah taking it to the next level with Dan.

Savannah is furious with Marti for keeping a secret about Dan from her so she goes home for a couple days to cool off and reconnect with her family. Meanwhile, Marti is conflicted over her feelings for Dan and Lewis, and focuses on Travis’ case to keep her mind occupied. Vanessa finds out Bill Marsh took away the Hellcats’ gym and turns to Red for help.
