Life Unexpected Recap 9/21

Now that both Baze and Kate are unemployed, they need to find work. Kate has a meeting with her agent to discuss employment opportunities and Baze's father sets up an interview for him at his firm. Paige is still staying over and Kate and Ryan's place. Lux takes an extra long time to get ready for school, because she is trying to look good for Eric. When she gets to school, Lux tries to talk Eric only to be interrupted by Math.

At her meeting with her agent, Kate discovers that nobody really wants he as a solo act. She has two options; an NPR position in Seattle, or as a producer at her old show. She also discovers that Ryan was the one who suggested to Producer position, and she is none too happy about it. While she is discussing her opportunities, she gets a call from Lux's school; Lux is failing out of school. The Principal thinks that one of the reasons for Lux's trouble is that her parents are not very involved in her school life, so Kate decides to speak at Career Day.

When they get home from the school, Kate sets up an intricate study plan to help Lux out with her studies. While she is studying, Math shows up with Eric to show him the loft. Jaime moved out, and they are looking for anew roommate. When he sees Lux, he just up and leaves. Lux runs after him and confronts him about what happened on the road trip. He tells her that what happened was a mistake and he felt nothing.

Baze completely bombs the interview at his dad's firm and doesn't get the job. Kate is offered the 2am-6am time slot at another radio station, but she really wants drive time. The station tells her that nobody is going to take a solo act for the busiest part of the day. When Ryan gets home from work, Kate blows up and tells him that she doesn't think he fought hard enough for her. She resents him for the job offer, because she wouldn't have to be the producer if he had left the show when she was fired. She wanted them to be able to work a show together again, but Ryan tells her he didn't leave because he wanted to be able to take care of her and Lux. When Kate shows up to speak at Career Day she completely flounders and Ryan comes to her rescue. During Kate's speech, Lux and Eric go and talk in the gym because Lux finds out that he passed on the loft. Just as Eric is admitting that what happened was real and he starts to tell Lux he has feelings for her, Baze walks in.

Kate decides that she is going to take the producing job, so that her and Ryan can continue to work together. Baze continues to bug Emma (the person he interviewed with), until he gets the job. He shows up in a suit and tie with a complete background on a list of the firms clients. Lux steals the answers to her English midterm from Math's bag. When Baze shows up at Kate and Ryan's to tell them he got the job and to celebrate Lux's good grade, he finds out that Paige is Ryan's sister. During the celebration of her A, Lux is feeling super guilty about cheating.
