He quickly apologizes and tells her he's has tickets to an out of town convention and her mother already said she can come. Clare gets upset that he talked to her mom instead of her first. He said he was trying to surprise her and just wanted to do something nice for her. Eli is disappointed that she isn't more excited. She tells him she agreed to go and ask him what does he want.

Eli gives a fake smile and she walks away. The next day, she talks to Alli about the trip and Stalker Angel and defends Eli's behavior saying he's through alot including his ex girlfriend dying over spring break last year. She comes to the conclusion that he is still hung up on Julia and he's scared of losing her like he lost Julia. She tells him to meet her at their bench and tells him they need to take a breather. He tells her he's over Julia and he only cares about her but Clare tells him he's suffocating her and is adamant about some time apart.

She tells him she's sorry and walks away leaving him alone on the bench. In Drop the World 2 , Clare is walking into school when Eli approaches her and wants to talk.

Then Clare and Adam walk into their next class and Clare is thinking about Eli when Adam tries to hand a binder. Clare doesn't grab the binder so it falls to the floor.

She then finds out he was on medicine. In' ' Cry Me A River 1 , now that the rules have started to relax at Degrassi, clubs are back in session.

Clare decides that a good way to keep her busy and to not run into Eli is to join the school newspaper. Makes sense, since Clare is a gifted writer and had her story with Eli published. Clare approaches Katie, the Editor of the Degrassi Daily, and asks to join the writing staff. Katie gives Clare an assignment to write a word article on getting over a break up.

When Clare gives Alli the article at lunch to read over Alli has a few critiques. Like, maybe a word article should actually be that length and not five pages? Five pages!

Katie tells her to go away because she had her chance.

Sav gets Katie to let Clare on the paper. In retaliation Katie makes Clare cover the play which means spending time with Eli, to Clare's horror. In Dirt Off Your Shoulder 1 , Clare tells Eli that, as her assignment requires, she has to right an article for the The Degrassi Daily about his play and has to interview him.

The two are clearly still awkward talking to each other after their breakup, but she tries to put it aside during lunch, when she asks him questions about his play, but Eli has yet to have a thorough plot and leaves Clare in the middle of their interview. Clare is seen talking to Jake in the hallway and walks off with their arms wrapped around each other, which Eli sees, which causes Eli's meltdown.

She later runs into Eli and he introduces to to Imogen. She then says that she still needs an interview for the paper. He tells her to to meet him tomorrow for lunch and says "It's a date".

Eli walks up to her at lunch the next day and he says that she was his muse for his concept for the play. She says she is glad to help and starts the interview by asking what the play is about.

He says it is called Love Roulette and its about a guy who is betrayed by a manipulative girlfriend who is obssesed with a religious psycho Fitz. Clare says that that is a lie and asks if he is off his meds. He says yes and that he is no longer in love with her.

She ends the conversation with Alli and begins reading them, seeing all the hateful things that her parents said about each other, and that her father cheated not once but many times.

Jake arrives at the house at this moment and lets himself in, surprising Clare. Jake leaves and Clare closes the door behind him, and then leans on it in agony.

Later, Clare decides that the best way to cope is to go to movie night as well, and meet up with a boy who Alli is trying to set her up with. The boy, Liam, guides her to sit right in front of the screen, and conveniently, right in front of Jake. The two sit on a bench outside of the makeshift theatre, and while Liam begins talking, all Clare is interested in is kissing.

Clare waits in Jake's car until the table read is finished. Clare tells Jake that she set off the stink bomb and other things, explaining herself because of the script. Jake, confused, asks her what she is talking about.

Clare tells him that the play is Eli's fantasy of revenge, saying bad things about Clare, and that Eli will make Jake believe him over her. Jake tells Clare that he would never believe what Eli says over her, and says that Eli's a weird kid that wears eyeliner and writes plays.

Since Clare isn't ready to hand in the paper, Eli convinces her to skip class. While outside sitting on a bench, she confides in him about her parents marriage problems. He tells her to write about that, but she refuses, arguing that it's too personal. He then tells her that she cares too much about what people think.

He makes her scream in public to prove she doesn't care what other people think. When she does, she says that it's now his turn, but he declines saying that it's not his style. The two begin to play fight, and end up laughing and looking into each others eyes against a telephone pole while Eli holds Clare's wrists.

Adam says that he's "still trying to process the smell," and Fitz prepares to break his nose, but Eli hands his backpack to Clare and intervenes, taunting him about the way he looks and smells.

The tension is diffused when Adam points out a teacher is watching, and Eli tells both Adam and Clare that he refuses to be the victim to Fitz's bullying. Clare thinks he should just ignore him. The next day, Eli meets up with Clare, and he says that ignoring Fitz would be unsatisfying, but Clare says there's no.

He says that's a matter of opinion, and Clare tells him that he can do what he wants, that he doesn't need to impress her. Eli asks her what makes her think he's trying to impress her, and she just smiles at him. He then concedes, saying that he'll try to smooth things over and Clare, pleased, says that she knew he was smart.

Fitz then interrupts them, and Eli makes a snide remark. Fitz then says that he doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut, and Eli offers a truce if Fitz will only apologize for damaging his car.

Fitz begins to apologize, but then kicks Eli in his personal area. Eli falls to the ground, and Clare kneels next to him and asks what she can do, but there is nothing.

Eli reassures her that when they clear out the mistaken identity, he'll be released. Still uncertain, Eli says that the worst that will happen to him is that he'll get busted for fake I. She says that he is going to be really mad, and Fitz walks up behind them. Clare steps behind Eli, and Fitz calmly says that Eli pulled a nice trick. Eli says that the I. Fitz says unfortunately for Eli, he's a slow learner and bumps Eli while walking away. Clare asks if the two are now at war, and Eli states he's right where he wants to be, in Fitz's head.

Later that day, Clare is seen bumping into Adam who has tampons and drops them on the floor. When she helps him pick them up she asks him why he has them.

Adam comes over and tell them both that he is FTM, female-to-male transgender. Clare and Eli ask him questions after Adam invites them to. Clare asks if it makes him gay or a lesbian and Adam denies it with explanation.

Eli asks if he can still "let one rip" in front of him and Adam said he'd be upset if he didn't. Clare laughs and says the two are gross. In My Body Is A Cage 2 , Adam is being walked down the hall by a teacher, and the teacher allows him to sit down with Clare and Eli, who seem to not have a problem with Adam being transgender. Adam informs Clare and Eli that his family has never really accepted him and that he's going to have to change back to "Gracie" during his grandmother's visit.

After class, "Gracie" is sitting outside, lighting a hair clip with a lighter and burning himself, when Clare walks by and tries to stop her.

Clare comforts her and says that she doesn't have to be Gracie if it doesn't make her happy and that everyone has to change, not him. Torres, as Adam burns the clothes that belonged to "Gracie.

When Eli comes in, she asks him if he wants to hang out, but he ignores her. Confused, she asks. Adam if she smells. Adam didn't think so, both sat confused by Eli's behavior. Clare is later seen replaying the film footage, and then asking her teacher about why Romeo acted hot one day and cold the next.

She tells him there's something between them, but he only tells her that he's sorry he led her on. Clare, upset and confused, changes the ending to their Romeo and Juliet remake so that Juliet doesn't end her life and gives up on Romeo.

She turns to Adam for help and asks him to question Eli. Though Adam talks to Eli, he refuses to tell Clare anything other than Eli's address. Clare rides her bike over to see Eli and asks him why he doesn't like her. When Eli won't tell her and says that them being apart is for the best, Clare is upset and says that she can't be around him anymore if he can't say why. Finally, Eli caves and they go for a ride in his hearse. Eli stops the car and confesses that a year ago he had a bad fight with his girlfriend, Julia, who biked away angrily in the night, got hit by a car, and died.

Eli admits he really likes Clare, but feels responsible for Julia's death. He thinks he doesn't deserve Clare, and feels that distancing himself from her is the only way to avoid hurting her. He says, "it's not fair. Why should I get to be happy? Clare and Eli seem to be back on good terms flirting again , and Clare agrees to give Eli some time to deal with his issues about Julia.

Which made Eli very happy. In a later scene, Clare is sitting with Eli in the lunchroom while they watch Adam sit down at Fitz's table instead of theirs. Mean while Alli and other grade 10 students were writing an important exam, Clare is seen lighting a stink bomb and rolling it into the gym, causing the smoke alarm to set off and the school to evacuate, which gives Eli and Adam time to run away and thus stops the fight between the boys and Fitz.

In All Falls Down 1 , Clare is seen hiding from Principal Simpson in the library, afraid that she would be caught after she disrupted exams. After being comforted by Eli who tells. Principal Simpson that it was Fitz who set off the stink bomb and Clare went along with it, Eli then tells Clare she needs a way to thank him for lying for her.

She replies "What did you have in mind? They looked at each other for a moment, then Eli says awkwardly "I have a French exam. After the exam Clare confronts Eli about their relationship and she asks if they're together and he says yes, and they decide to go to the dance that night. After Clare bought the tickets she was told by Fitz that if she went to the dance with him, he would leave Adam and Eli alone, to which Clare agreed.

After telling Eli about what happened he seemed upset but went along with it. Clare declines despite Eli telling her that Fitz wants to have sex with her and tells Eli that poisoning Fitz would not stop the violence. She asks him if he brought it for her, and he replies that it was his mother who suggested he bring one. Their conversation quickly swifts to the on-going feud that is happening between Fitz and Eli, and Clare asks Fitz if he would be willing to end the.

Fitz decides he would, but only if such condition is met Eli's apology.

She runs to Adam, informing him that Fitz has a knife, and that he should tell Mr. Simpson while she looks for Eli.

Clare states that date one is not over yet. When Clare's parents call again, Eli suggests she go home. She then persuades Eli off of the subject and they kiss. Mad at them for always fighting, Clare moves her hand to her hair and pulls it back to show her piercing.

Her parents are skeptical and Clare finds it refreshing they are mad at her instead of each other for a change. She then walks off to go to her room. She says she hasn't told them about him yet. They are interrupted by their English teacher who gives Eli detention for not following the dress code.

Clare then decides that Eli should meet her parents for dinner as her boyfriend, after his detention, of course. Eli agrees. Later, at dinner, Clare's parents ask Eli questions and Clare answers them with information. Eli gradually gets annoyed by this. Clare's mother then asks if Eli would like to thank the Lord for the wonderful meal they're about to eat, because he's the house guest.

Eli then proceeds to say something, but Clare cuts him off, yet again, and mentions he's an atheist. Things get awkward at the dinner table and Eli gives Clare an angry glare. The next day at school, Clare comes to school dressed totally different. Her hair is straightened and part of her hair is dyed black. She's wearing a lot of makeup and is wearing clothing that is the complete opposite of what she usually wears. She greets Eli and tells him that he was cute last night, and after a few moments Eli turns his head and sees a transformed Clare, and in confusion, asks her "Who are you?

He tells her he doesn't understand why she's doing this, and Clare confesses that she's scared. She's then scared that her parents will tell her that they're getting a divorce and there's nothing she can do about it. Eli questions why she used him in order to stop the divorce, and Clare says that when they are mad at her they have something in common.

Eli says he refuses to play this game, and that she tried to hurt her parents, but he's the one who got burned. He walks away, leaving Clare to stand alone. Later on, Clare comes home, her parents see her new look and it starts a fight between her parents. Clare's mom soon confirms her that they're getting a divorce.

Clare is upset, and begins crying and hugs her mom. In Umbrella 1 Clare discovers that her parents will be selling their home, which is a big part of her childhood. She also finds out that they're getting rid of some of their antiques, including a watch that Clare's father taught her how to tell time on. Clare grabs it and walks out the house, and later at school, she sees a boy from her religious group, and they talk a little about her family issues. He tells her if she ever wants to talk, he'll be there for her.

Later, Clare meets up with Eli. She tells him about her parents selling the house and separating and he suggests that maybe she can stay in the house and her parents can go back and forth to stay with her, as an acquaintance of his did.

Clare takes this into consideration. At home, she proposes this idea to her parents, and her parents reject the idea. This infuriates Clare, and she storms out and goes to Little Miss Steaks, where she meets Eli and someone she didn't expect to see, his parents. Clare tells them she couldn't handle being around her parents, and his parents make her the offer of staying at their house for awhile.

She asks if there's a guest room, and Eli's father says no, that she'd be staying in Eli's room. He says "We've been trying to get a girl in Eli's room for awhile now.
