In the nineteenth episode of the second season of Greek, titled "Social Studies," the events of Greek Week continue to unfold. As the competition heats up, tensions run high among the different fraternities and sororities on campus.
At the center of the episode is Rusty (played by Jacob Zachar), who is feeling the pressure of being the Kappa Tau pledge representative. Rusty is determined to help his fraternity win Greek Week, but he's struggling to balance his responsibilities with his schoolwork.
Meanwhile, Cappie (played by Scott Michael Foster) and Casey (played by Spencer Grammer) are still grappling with their feelings for each other. Despite being in relationships with other people, Cappie and Casey can't seem to stay away from each other. Things come to a head during a tense confrontation between the two at the Greek Week carnival.
Another key plotline in "Social Studies" revolves around Dale (played by Clark Duke) and his attempts to fit in with his brothers at Omega Chi. Dale had previously been ostracized from the fraternity for his conservative beliefs, but he's now trying to prove his worth by participating in Greek Week events.
As the week wears on, the various fraternities and sororities compete in a series of challenges, including a dance-off and a game of capture the flag. The stakes are high, as the winning house will be awarded a coveted trophy.
Despite all the drama and tension, there are moments of levity in the episode as well. Calvin (played by Paul James) and Heath (played by Andrew J. West) share a hilarious bonding moment over their mutual love of a certain sci-fi television show, while Rebecca (played by Dilshad Vadsaria) tries to hide the fact that she's secretly a "little sister" in another sorority.
Overall, "Social Studies" is a fast-paced and entertaining episode that offers plenty of drama and laughs. With Greek Week in full swing, the characters are pushed to their limits as they try to prove themselves to their brothers and sisters. While there are certainly moments of conflict, the episode ultimately showcases the strong bonds of friendship that exist within the Greek system.
