PARTY OF FIVE: THE IDES OF MARCH {FIRST SEASON FINALE} (TV)
Summary
One in this series of dramas about five siblings in San Francisco who attempt to raise themselves and cope with life's daily dilemmas after their parents die in a car accident. In this episode, Ross, Claudia's violin teacher, announces that he is planning on adopting a baby girl; as they celebrate with Ross, Bailey learns that Jill has died from a drug overdose. Shocked, Bailey knows his life will never be the same, but he pushes away his siblings when they reach out to help. The following developments also occur: Charlie intends to propose to Kirsten but needs the family's permission to give her their mother's engagement ring; Julia attempts to befriend Jill's brother, Griffin, but her efforts have no effect on him; and Bailey begins to self-destruct before everyone's eyes. In the meantime, Ross learns there may be a legal problem in the adoption process and realizes he is being discriminated against because of his homosexuality; nonetheless, he chooses to let the issue fade away. Additionally, Kirsten surprises Charlie by asking him to marry her, thus ruining his planned speech; Julia's persistence with Griffin pays off; and Bailey manages to help Ross adopt the baby girl. Commercials deleted.
