## Throughout the Series

### Season 1

In Pour It Out: Annie is having trouble communicating with her mother, as she feels trapped in Serenity and wants to escape her small town life. She directs her anger towards an Instagram account that she made, which she uses to showcase Serenity's most negative aspects: this is something that Dana Sue isn't happy with. Annie feels ignored by her crush and childhood best friend, Ty, even though Annie's doing the same thing with Kyle, Ty's brother.

In A United Front: Annie wants to talk to her mother, and wants to give her a photograph that she took of the Sweet Magnolias. However, Dana Sue doesn't pay attention as she is very stressed since she doesn't have a sous-chef at her restaurant. When Dana Sue can finally talk to Annie, she has already thrown the picture in the trash. Later, Annie is asked by her godmother about the interests of the two girls who just became orphaned. Thanks to Annie, Helen can now determine that the girls' godfather Nolan is much better suited as a guardian than their maternal aunt Charlotte.

In Give Drink to the Thirsty: Annie feels ignored by her mother, so she ends up snapping at her and saying that Dana Sue cuts people off after one small mistake. She uses her father and Dana Sue's former sous-chef as examples.

In Lay It All Down: Dana Sue collapses, she is at the verge of contracting diabetes, which is apparently the same illness that caused her mother's death. Annie is taking Dana Sue's health and blood sugar more seriously than the own Dana Sue does, which leads to another argument between the two of them. Dana Sue finally goes back to Annie, who finally receives the apology, care and attention from her mother that she initially longed for.

In Dance First, Think Later: Annie is mad at her mother because she isn't paying her attention: she needs her permission to leave for the baseball fundraiser and take a few pictures for the school newspaper with her friend Simon. She obtains her goal thanks to Isaac and Erik. Later, Annie gets into trouble as she goes to a party that is happening secretly at her school, gets drunk, embarrasses herself and is rescued by Ty. She drunkenly kisses him and when he leaves she sends a still drunkenly voice message.

In All Best Intentions: Annie experiences her first hangover after the party at the school gym, and Dana Sue makes it worse by demanding her to go to church. And of course, her drunken text living in all her classmates' phones doesn't help either. When she hears the voice message she sent, she is very embarrassed and is also very angry when she discovers that Ty played the drunken voice message to his friend Gabe, which led to Jackson leaking the audio to the whole school. Annie ends her friendship with Ty and says that she didn't mean anything she said when she was drunk.

In Hold My Hand: Dana Sue sees a text message with suspicious emojis in Annie's phone and has a chat with Maddie and Ty, in which the latter snaps under the pressure and gives everything away. This leads to a huge rift between Dana Sue and Annie in which Dana Sue says that what makes her angriest is the fact that Annie lied to her and hid her the whole situation. Dana Sue grounds Annie, which makes Annie even angrier at Ty: she gosts him at school, fortunately for CeCe. After Dana Sue gets home, she has an emotional conversation with her daughter even though, despite her insisting that Annie can tell her anything, her daughter doesn't let her know about her kiss with Ty.

In What Fools These Mortals Be: Dana Sue implements mandatory family breakfast at her household, but Annie isn't too keen on the idea. Later, Annie is allowed to attend Kyle's play, as Dana Sue considers it educational, and Maddie, who acts as her chaperone, allows Annie to go backstage and take photos with her friend Simon. Back at Maddie's place, Kyle intends to opens up with Annie about his feelings for her, and when he tries to kiss her she awkwardly turns away.

In Where You Find Me: everyone at mock trial, including Annie, are worried about Kyle's disappearance. She has to pull double-duty to cover for Kyle, and Ty gives her his jacket to make the role look more realistic. CeCe is watching jealously. Later, Annie confronts Helen about her preferential treatment of CeCe, to which Helen responds: "Sometimes if we treat people as if they're good, it challenges them to be good."

In Storms and Rainbows: Annie feels jealous when she sees Ty accepting CeCe's ask to go with her to prom. She decides to do a "no prom night" with Kyle, but is soon asked out by her friend Simon.
