"The Avengers"
Written by: Josh Schwartz & Stephanie Savage Directed by: Ian Toynton

The fourth season premiere finds the gang adjusting to life without
Marissa Cooper. Summer is attending Brown University in Rhode Island,
where she has reinvented herself as a left-leaning, tree-hugging
activist under the sway of environmentalist Che (guest star Chris Pratt).
Ryan has moved out of the Cohen house and is dealing with Marissa's
death in the only way he knows how. When he misses a special dinner
at the Cohens, Seth finds him on the wrong side of the tracks and
calls Summer for help. Meanwhile, Julie Cooper will do anything —
even yard work—to avoid dealing with Marissa's death; Kaitlin earns
a new pair of boots from Dr. Roberts in true Cooper fashion; and
Taylor hides out in the diner trying to convince her friends she's still in Paris
in "The Avengers" episode of "The O.C." |
