Plot
Season 1
Savannah Reed is a 16-year-old girl from Montana, who moves to California and attends a school called Orange County Day (or OCD) for the first time and meets Genevieve "Genny" Ryan and Angelina "Lina" Davis. The three become instant best friends. However, the person Savannah really wants to meet is her childhood friend, Brooklyn Hayes. She tries to reconcile with Brooke, but is cruely rejected.
Savannah develops a crush on Sage Bond, Brooke's boyfriend. Sage doesn't notice Savvy much and avoids eye contact with her. Genny and Lina decide to give Savvy a makeover. Savvy's status is now upgraded to a "babe". This makes Brooke angry, then furious when she hears that Sage and Savvy have become partners for a project. Romance starts to spark between Savvy and Sage, however they fizzle when Brooke starts making rumors about Savvy.
Savvy then meets Tom Dawson, whom she falls in love with. Brooke tries to set her popularity in stone with the help of Rachel Rivera and Alicia Hamilton, but fails. Tom admits being in love with Savvy, and soon both become boyfriend and girlfriend.
Brooke decides to give a final blow to Savvy with her newest plan: "Operation Fry the Sausage". Brooke decides to hold a party for the weekend, also to celebrate her and Sage's 3rd year anniversary. She invites everybody from OCD. Savvy then decides to give Genny and Lina makeovers.
At the party, Brooke plans phase 1 of her plan: Breaking Savvy's heart. Savvy sees Tom cheating with Brooke. Brooke then starts phase two of the plan, but there are two bumps on the road, first, Rachel breaks off her and Brooke's friendship, and two, Sage sees Brooke making fun of a girl, realizing how mean she really is.
Meanwhile, Savvy, who had been crying for hours, meets up with Sage, and they both decide to go into Brooke's abandoned closet. Savvy tells Sage about Tom cheating on her with Brooke, and he believes her. Sage reveals his feelings for Savannah, and they make out but are caught by Brooke, Tom, and Alicia. Brooke then attacks Savannah and leaves cuts all over her face.
Tom is able to get everybody's attention and tells the truth: A few years ago, Tom had fallen in love with Brooke, he was so in love, that he made a plan: he paid Megan Collins, whom Brooke hated a lot, to pretend to date her. Brooke could not stand seeing Megan so happy, so she and Tom started a flirtng, this of course lasted for only about a week. Tom was sad for a bit, but then realized how mean Brooke was. Years later, during the time he was dating Savannah, he gets a phone call on from Brooke telling him to see a video put on YouTube, much to his horror, it was a video of him and Brooke making out in her bedroom in the 10th grade, which was intended for Megan, now for Savvy. Brooke threatens Tom that if he doesn't go along with her plan, she'll send the video to Savannah. The plan was that during the party, Brooke would signal Tom to go upstairs. Tom thought that Brooke was going to get it over with, but instead, she started to forcibly make out with him, sure that Savannah would see. Now realizing the plan, Tom breaks up with Brooke, and decides to be Savannah's boyfriend.
After Savvy, Sage, Tom, Rachel and Alicia decide to leave, Brooke sees Savannah dancing with Sage, to the song dedicated to Brooke and Sage's 3rd year anniversary. Brooke then ends the party, and with everyone gone, she faints due to her bulimia. Later that night Sage and a treated Savvy decide to go on their first date, and Sage is able to convince Savvy to stop her anorexia.
Season 2
Brooke stays home for 3 weeks, and later sees a Tweet on her phone from Sage, with a picture of him and Savannah with a caption written - "Luv u so much baby <3" Brooke goes insane, screaming and throwing things in her room, accidentally hurting her pet cricket Gigi. Brooke tells herself she is going to destroy Savannah, and doesn't care what the consequences are this time.
The next day, Savvy meets a girl named Brigitte LeBlanc, an exchange student from France who is living with Sage. Sage tells Savannah that he and Brigitte are cousins, when Brigitte corrects him and states that their families are friends, and that she has known Sage ever since they were both babies.
At home, Savvy goes outside to rollerblade and finds Gigi in the bushes, covered in cuts. Savvy takes Gigi home, and decides to keep the cricket and renaming her to Mimi. Brooke doesn't notice that Gigi is gone, and decides to go to school the next day. At school, Savannah sees a note taped on to her locker saying "SAVANNAH- enjoy Sage while you can, he won't be yours 4 long. KISSES!"
The same day at lunch, Brooke returns, some are thrilled, some are not. Brooke meets Brigitte and tells her that they should hang out. After lunch, Savannah decides to show Sage the note that was on her locker. He thinks that it's Brooke's doing, but Savannah thinks it's Brigitte. Sage tells her it couldn't be her, because she has a boyfriend named Phillipe back in France. Savvy and Sage eventually start to make out, only to be interrupted by Brooke. She gives him back his sweat-shirt he gave her to wear. She apologizes to Sage and Savvy, but obviously doesn't mean it. She gives Savannah a flower, but still makes fun of her by telling her she remindes her of a bunny; "cute; and chubby". Savannah growls at her, and Sage breaks up their fight and leaves for his next class. Savvy tells Brooke that she doesn't scare her, and tells her that the note she thought she wrote was "cute". Brooke denies this and leaves, calling Savannah a Weiner-dog once again.
Savannah reaches home, only to be greeted by Mimi's wimpers. Her mother shows up and tells her that Mimi was scared that Savannah had left her for good
Mimi has a flashback of Brooke not keeping her promise about coming back home to feed her in time. Mimi ends up leaving a dropping on the floor, for not being walked in a whole day. Brooke comes back home and gets mad.
Savannah then tells Mimi she'll get her some lunch. Meanwhile, Brooke is filling up Gigi's food bowl, calling her name, and of course, she doesn't come. Brooke fakes being hurt to try and call Gigi to her this way. She then realizes that Gigi isn't here. Brooke calls her mother, only to find out that she doesn't care for Gigi, and tells her to stop calling while she is at work. Brooke then realizes what she's done; Gigi had run away because of her.
The ending clip then shows Tom standing near the Eiffel Tower in France. More on this subject is gone over in the following episode, which starts with an unknown girl kissing a French Bulldog, who is later revealed to be Phillipe (Brigitte's ex-boyfriend). In the same hallway, two enamoured Border Collies (Violette and Marine) admire Tom from a distance. Marine prompts Violette to introduce herself, which she does. As Tom and Violette make an acquaintance, Violette learns that Tom has visited France for a "fresh start" (To distance himself from the events of the previous season) and is fairly inept at speaking French, which has a created a language barrier between him and a majority of other students. After Tom explains his situation, Violette's affable and compassionate nature (along with being proficient in both English and French) results in her offering her friendship to Tom, a proposal that he happily accepts. Tom playfully dons Violette "purple," as the they decide to get coffee together.
Back in California, Savannah barges into Brooke and sends Mimi flying through the air. After Savannah catches Mimi, an argument ensues as both girls claim ownership over the cricket. Brooke responds by aggressively snatched Mimi. The cricket then goes back and forth between the two of them, with Brooke recklessly grabbing Mimi and hurting her.
The argument comes to an abrupt and temporary conclusion as the cricket is placed between the two of them, and opts to go back home with Savannah instead of Brooke. After winning over Brooke, Savannah rejoins the crowd, and then bids Genevieve farewell after promising that after dropping Mimi off at home, she will be back at school.
As Savannah leaves the crowd, she paces the secluded hallway that leads to the school exit. Brooke then sneaks up behind her and sinks her claws into Savannah's back, threatening her and demanding Mimi's return. After Brooke ignores Savannah's pleads, the latter's instincts kick in, and she inflicts a bite to Brooke's cheek. Brooke responds by clawing Savannah's forehead and back, this time even deeper. Savannah retaliates by shoving her into the lockers, which knocks Brooke
unconscious.
Later that day, Savannah, while at home, is confronted by her irascible parents, who angrily berate her for having injured Brooke and getting herself suspended. Her parents are extremely oblivious to the fact that the attack was provoked. Savannah counteracts their accusations by justifying her perspective, but her parents barely take her side into account. The bitter injustice between the two species is prominent as Savannah's mom explains that even if Brooke started the dispute, cats are more delicate then dogs, to which Savannah remarks that Brooke is a "ferocious, munipulative tiger." Her mom asserts that Brooke is instead a "toothpick," which inadvertedly hurts Savannah as she acknowledges the fact that Brooke is thinner than her. Savannah's mom then informs her that Brooke's mother threatened to press charges, and demanded the return of Mimi. Savannah is grounded after furiously asking if they care about the emotional and physical abuse that she goes through at school.
Brooke is then shown to be in the hospital, wearing a cast around her leg, a neckbrace and a bandage over her nose and head. She exaggerates her concussion to her mother, whining that she "doesn't remember anything." Her mother claims that "she will pay," before she leaves the room to answer a phone call.
Once her mother has left the room, Brooke easily gets onto her feet and tells her friends that the coast is clear, to which Alicia and Rachel race in. Rachel, previously on negative ground with Brooke, makes amends with her. Brooke then announces to the both of them that they are going to ruin Savannah's social life.
Savannah is later shown to have stormed away from her parents, and is sulking miserably in her room. While sobbing, she hears Sage's covertible in the driveway. After climbing out of her window with Mimi, the two of them embrace. Sage asks her if she is okay, and claims to support Savannah, saying "I learnt the hard way that Brooke is the queen of manipulation, and I'll never let that get between us ever again. I promise." He then proposes that the two of them take a drive in his convertible and talk, an idea which Savannah quickly accepted (Mimi tags along as well).
