Speaking of Ricky, he's really the reason we're here. Or, one half of the reason. Since he and Nini found their way back to each other at the end of season one, some s--t has gone down both fictionally and non-fictionally, so it's time to check in on East High's most dramatic power couple as they navigate the perils of high school love.
As we saw in the premiere, Ricky is fully dedicated to his lady. He finally wrote her a song, he can say out loud that he loves her, and he's fully envisioning a spring musical season as the leads. The problem is that Nini has been accepted into a performing arts boarding school in Denver, so she's about to move away and she's terrified of telling her boyfriend.Of course, the news comes out in the worst way.
