## Throughout The Series

### Season 1

Samantha is introduced in It's a Face Not a Mask. She appears to have a frenemy-like relationship with the members of MAN (Maxine, Abby, Norah). She tells Ginny about their tendency to be "cliquey". This is confirmed when MAN gossips to Ginny about Samantha being a wannabe in their group.

Later, Samantha attends a hangout a Brodie's house, along with MANG. As the girls question Ginny about Hunter, Samantha mentions that she and Hunter dated in eighth grade. She describes him as an amazing boyfriend. She candidly talks about how they took each other's virginities, right in front of Ginny. Abby eggs this on, though mostly just to cause trouble. Abby even goes on to tell Sam she thinks Hunter is still in love with her, making Ginny understandably uncomfortable.

Throughout the episode, Samantha makes some insensitive comments about Ginny's heritage and about mixed people, irritating Ginny.

In Boo, Bitch, Samantha appears again while MANG is at Fall fest. She happily greets them and compliments Ginny's sweater, but is met with apprehensive bitch-stares from all members of MANG. She queries about their Halloween costumes, causing them to all look uncomfortable as they had agreed not to include Sam in their Britney Spears group costume (as suggested by Ginny). Max awkwardly tells Samantha that their costume is a secret that will have a big reveal. An uneasy Samantha seems to get the message. She bashfully says goodbye and walks away. For a moment, Ginny looks like she feels guilty about excluding Samantha.

Later, Samantha attends the same Halloween party as MANG. Dressed as a cheetah, she watches their extravagant group costume reveal, looking very jealous and ticked off.

Samantha then witnesses Press make a comment to Abby about her having "whale legs". Abby attempts to give him a lap dance, but unimpressed, he shoves her off and asks Samantha to try to see if she can do it better. Delighted, Samantha gets on his lap and smirks at an upset Abby.

In The Worst Betrayal Since Jordyn and Kylie, Samantha stops by at Blue Farm Café while Ginny is working. As she takes her order, Ginny shyly asks Sam if she has heard anything that may reveal why MAN stopped speaking to her. Samantha smirks in enjoyment and sarcastically sympathizes with Ginny about the "MANG drama". On her way out, she goes as far to suggestively brush her ex-boyfriend Hunter on the arm in front of Ginny, who was still dating Hunter at the time. This shows that Samantha has not forgiven Ginny or the rest of MANG for their cliquey antics and their tendency to exclude her.

### Season 2

Samantha appears again in the third episode of season 2, What Are You Playing at, Little Girl? She is seen hanging out with the rest of Max's friends in the basement (minus Abby and Ginny). When Norah has period cramps, she puts her head into Sam's lap and Sam comforts her. Press makes a comment about muzzling her, angering the girls. Sam tells him he couldn't handle a period. They then watch and cheer for Hunter's heartbreak song.

## Personality

Like many of the other teenage characters, Samantha has a tendency to be fake. She acts nice at times but frequently tries to get under the skin of various members of MANG, likely a result of their shunning of her. Since she only appears in three episodes, it's hard to gauge whether she is really a nice person or not. She also makes racially insensitive comments occassionally.
