The big baseball game against their arch rivals the ??.  Even Neil took a
break UB2B to play in it.  Jimmy was suppose to be the pitcher but he hurt
his arm when he fell off the motorcycle.  There was a question whether
Garrett or JT would pitch.  Of course Garrett knew what to say so that he
would be the pitcher.  I believed this took place the week after the 4th of
July.

After the 4th of July thing and before the big game, Garrett and Sydney met
(in her mom's car -- the wall had be sealed up).  The problem was that
wanted to see each other, but Sydney's mom was against it.  They put their
heads together to come up with a plan (kind of a scary thought, huh?).  The
plan was that they would use Mila.  Sydney would get to be good friends
with her and Garrett would become interested in her.  Before Syndey would
agree to letting Garrett get close to Mila she set up a few rules to make
sure he didn't get to close.  So wrote them down and had him sign it.
While she had a long list of things for Garrett to (not) do, Garrett had
only one thing he wanted Sydney to do:  when the time came (he decided the
time) Sydney had to stand up to her mother about him.  Eventually, Garrett
said that the time would be after the game, and Syd put the condition that
she would only if they won (which they did).  Due to the circumstances, Syd
had to back down on her word (which really really upset her), so Garrett
decided to take a more serious interest in Mila.  This upset Syd even more
and she came up with a plan to get back at Garrett.  Part of this plan was
to read the contract to Mila -- which caused Mila to break up with Garrett.

The flashback scene(s) from the start of summer were shown in full on the
first episode (and parts in other episodes and I think in the original
opening).  There are two versions of the flashback:  Syd's and Garrett's.
We first saw Syd's flashback.  Garrett is going off to France and Syd to
some horse camp.  They say goodbye and are both looking pretty depressed.
Garrett (I think it was him) says that at least Syd will have her horses to
keep her mind off of him.  Syd is holding a red rose the whole time.
Garrett's version is a little different.  It's the same setup, Syd still
has the rose, but this time only Garrett is depressed, Syd is laughing the
whole time.  And when Garrett mentions something about Syd missing him, Syd
keeps laughing and mentions that he shouldn't worry, she still has her
horses.  I have no idea which scenario is the truth, my guess is it's
somewhere in between.
