hear Jason say that he does love Chase and that he needs him
Final Thoughts: I liked the story line about the secret room it was very Dark Shadows, I kind of wish that it went on a bit longer. I liked Lance a lot more in this episode then in previous ones too.
Best Outfit: These are some of the best bike outfits.
