Oh, cool. I'll look for Toby next time this ep comes on.

I agree that it needed to be more than 30 minutes to wrap up all the subplots. Still, I liked all the Sean/Snake stuff, and there'll probably be more now that Sean is working on his car. It's nice that Sean has Mr. Ehl, Snake, and now Ellie. Plus I think he and Jay don't hate each other, so who knows if they'll be friends again.

I haven't seen this episode yet, but I was wondering what happens to Ashley and Craig?

ITA! They just kinda added this new line and i dunno, I like the sean and ellie moments and sean telling snake the truth but I think it could have been better!

Mayberry- They show Toby for quick 2 seconds walking with Kendra during the dance.

babi_gurl311- They had no interaction in the finale. Hell, i don't think i remember seeing Ashley at the dance at all.

I hope to see more of Mr. Ehl in the next season.

He's the auto-shop teacher, the guy in the wheelchair that is Sean's student welfare sponsor.

Apparently she was there, for like, a split second! I didn't see her but somebody said she's in the background dancing. I'm going to need to watch this episode again.

Maybe we will see more of Mr. Ehl next season, probably in a storyline with Sean. I like the scenes between those two, kind of like father-and-son. Same thing with Sean and Snake.

Mariael311

Ohh....ok..why did I think it was something else!

We might see more of him since he is now Sean's sponsor for his student welfare!

Oh really...damn... I saw Toby but not her so it must have been a real quick sec!

Mr. Ehl

where has this man gone? why is auto-shop no longer at Degrassi?

I guess Epitome has a budget for only so many adult characters and teachers. I can handle that, but I'd like to see more mixing things up with those teachers- for instance have someone besides Wesley involved in a plot with his uncle.

Awww I miss Mr. Ehl and the auto shop. Also miss how back in these days the school actually looked like a school. A high school should have an auto shop, not a recording studio. But maybe we just had the auto shop because that seemed like a class that the candy bandits would enjoy and actually put an effort in. I don't know if I can see any of the "newbies" in auto shop.

Seeing this thread makes me appreciate season 3 Sean* so much, especially with his interaction with his teachers. Mr. Ehl was such a good support system for him.

JustMe2000

Yeah, I had that some thought the other night. KC is the only one that comes to mind and even that seems like kind of a stretch.

Connor would be that misplaced geek in shop class whose ceramic elephant lamp doesn't turn on.

I know this episode isn't up there in favorite season finales because nothing dramatic really happens (but there was a fire!). But actually I think that's what makes me appreciate it now because in season 10/11 we've got locker stabbings, car crashes, and gang members opening fire at end of year dances. Can you believe Jimmy Brooks was complaining about his date night ending badly?!

Oh and this was the episode that marked the end of celebrities playing actual characters (for the most part). Billy Ray Cyrus is one of my favorite cameos because of that.

To me it is one of the best finales because it has Darco going to a dance together. (Mostly joking!)

No, I acually enjoy this finale because it is when Sean gets his life turned around for the better and it makes me emotional when I see the scenes betweeen Mr. Simpson and Sean about the computer Sean stole. Those scenes break my heart nand I think that is the start of the wonderful Sean/Snake friendship we have seen throughout the show.
