The friends from Pine Hollow horse stables turn their attention to problems of romance, while Callie Forrester determines to get back into winning form after recovering from her leg injury.
Three young girls must decide whether to take risky actions in their lives: Lisa considers telling her boyfriend her secrets at the risk of hurting him; Carole feels pressure to sell her beloved horse and buy one more capable of competition; and Stevie wants to help Scott Forester win the upcoming election even though her boyfriend does not like the attention she is showing him.
Carole Hanson and Lisa Atwood are no longer speaking and Stevie Lake does not want to get in the middle so no one notices Carole neglecting her schoolwork or A.J. withdrawing from his friends.
