Holly J. is also happy with Blue and lets him call her "Holly". During class, Blue was doodling and draws a picture of "Super Holly." proud of himself, Blue shows Holly J. and she loves it. Anya tells Holly J. that she is surprised that she is letting Blue call her "Holly". Holly J. tells her that she likes her cute relationship with Blue, even if it was because of something heroic she did right before Winter Break. Later that day, Blue and Holly J. are preparing for the Winter Beach Bash. Blue starts to get kind of bossy because he wants to get all of Holly J.'s "friends'" desires for the Bash to come true. He begins to annoy Holly J. when he keeps telling people she'll make their Beach Bash desire happen. The following night, Holly J. and Blue attend the Winter Beach Bash going strong, but when Dave suggests a "Toga Day" for one of the Spirit Days, Holly J. starts to get edgy at him (Dave). Blue tells Holly J. that she shouldn't be edgy with Dave because she has come a long way since last semester, and he doesn't want to see her lose all of her "new friends". Holly J. starts to get edgier with Blue and tells him to leave her alone. In the middle of the party, Blue corrects her and tells her that she should be doing it a different way. Holly J. explodes and tells him to back off and that she doesn't like to be bossed around like the way he does with her and how he tells her how he wants her to act. This signifies that they've both had their final break up. At the end of the episode, Blue confronts "Holly" and tells her that he's sorry for all of the trouble and it was nice knowing her.
