What episode did Becca grad. and give a speech on Jesse..


i think that's what happened.. they were graduating and he couldn't go cuz he was sick or something... i thought he was dying and she's there crying and giving a speech. hadn't they just had a fight or something when that happened? anyway, all i remember is that she was so upset she couldn't finish reading her speech and someone else had to do it for her.. something like that..

The following is some of it I do remember-bits and pieces--

Read by Becca::

"In case you don't already know me, my name is
Jessie McKenna.. Like many of you, I can't wait to get out of this
place..there is a time bomb in my system..it's called HIV..
and it's a killer..I got it from having unprotected sex..just
one night of passion..it could have all been avoided if I
had worn a condom..The safest sex of all is no sex..I know
it's a drag, but that's life.Becca Thatcher is the love of
my life..she's the reason I get up in the morning.."

Then Becca breaks down in tears because she gets very
emotional while reading, and says in tears "I can't do this!"

The her friend Maxi comes up to the front and continues where
she left off..

That's not the whole speech of course- but it's as
close as I can remember!!

BTW:: Becca graduates in the last episode called
"Life Goes On (And On, And On)", but
the speech she gives about Jessie is
a few episodes before it-- they are not in
the same episode together- but
in different episodes in the 4th season!!

So if ya want to watch Becca 's graduation, watch
the last ep..."Life Goes On (And On, And On)".

If ya want to watch her speech watch a few episodes before
called "Visions".
