wikipedia.org summary:
Degrassi has won their first football game, thanks to Riley. He’s suddenly become stronger, and tells Peter he is taking steroids. Riley goes on a date with Anya, only to repress his being gay. His old friend from three years ago appears, trying to get closer to him. Riley’s becoming more and more violent, and severely hurts Sav. Peter confronts Riley, and Riley tells him about his childhood dreams about being a star athlete, having lots of friends, and a girlfriend. Peter tells him he could still be a star athlete and have lots of friends; being gay doesn’t change that. Meanwhile, Danny sets up Leia and Derek up on a date after Derek begs and Danny realizes he likes her. Derek says it’s fine, and Danny and Leia get together.
imdb.com summary:
The school’s Panthers team is scoring great, thanks to star player Riley Stavros, but in fact he’s taking steroids. Another short-term side-effect seems a straight libido, so he dumps his gay boyfriend for a cheerleader, Sav’s girl. That doesn’t feel right for either, so they break up by agreement and Riley drifts back to a former gay mate.
